The inside is very fancy... you can order food and there is a table by the front desks for it to be delivered. Clean rooms. Carpet was stainless & the bathroom was very nice. Pocket door allowed one to use the toilet if a roommate needed the sink! Favorite part: there is a SAUNA here! A dry one with pleasant smelling wood, and a steamy one. Positively marvelous. Front desk staff were very friendly :-) asked polite questions about the furry convention & were excited about our costumes My room lacked enough face towels for a bit, we only had 2 face towels though 4 were registered to stay... Got a text from a manager asking if I needed anything to "Improve my Stay." The original text was probably automated, but a person responded! So we got more towels. He & housekeeping were both very polite Six elevators go to the top floors. When I visited last year there were 2 under maintenance. They eventually got fixed, but a simultaneous furry convention, business conference, and a wedding were a bit crowded haha

I recently stayed at the Signia by Hilton in downtown San Jose, and it made a great impression. The hotel feels modern and upscale from the moment you walk in, with a spacious lobby and a clean, well‑maintained atmosphere throughout the property. My room was comfortable, stylish, and thoughtfully designed—plenty of space, a great bed, and all the amenities you’d expect from a higher‑end Hilton brand. The location is one of its biggest strengths. Being right in the heart of downtown San Jose makes it incredibly convenient for restaurants, events, and exploring the area. Whether you’re in town for business or a weekend getaway, it’s easy to get around. Service was friendly and professional, and the on‑site dining options were solid, making it simple to grab a meal or drink without leaving the hotel. Overall, the Signia delivers a polished, comfortable stay in a prime location, and I’d happily return.

Excellent and Prompt Heat Repair Service George provided outstanding service repairing the heating system in my room at the Signia. No sooner than he clocked into work, he made it to my room and got right to work. He was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient - diagnosing and fixing the issue quickly. George made sure the repair was done correctly and to my liking before he left, demonstrating real pride in his work. As a thoughtful touch for the inconvenience, he even left me with a chocolate in the form of a wrench! His friendly demeanor, attention to detail, and genuine care for guest comfort made the experience exceptional. It’s clear George goes above and beyond to ensure guests are well taken care of. Highly recommend him for any maintenance needs - he’s a true professional!

Minus one star for the shower. This was our second time staying here, and unfortunately we had the same issue again, so I’m assuming it’s a design problem across the rooms. Water seeps through the glass shower door, which results in a very large puddle on the bathroom floor. We had to use multiple towels to clean it up, and even then it wasn’t enough to fully absorb the water. Aside from this issue, we enjoyed our stay.

Friendly service. Large gym with separate yoga/floor area. Sauna was nice but steam room wasn’t working. Nice relaxing pool. Rooms were a good size. Parking $50 per night with valet service. Restaurant and bar on site were decent. It is in a very walkable area.

I didn't get her name. But the lady at the front desk had very exceptional customer service. She deserves a massive shout out. Everyone was so nice and friendly. From valet, to house keeping. We were offered an upgrade as well as a bottle of champagne for our special celebrations.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay in a fourth-floor, poolside room with a patio and firepit. But what has really made the experience special is the staff, who have been unfailingly kind, courteous and helpful. I would especially like to call out Ariana and Luis at Aji, and Lucas and Pasquale Federico at The Fountain. Absolutely a credit to the property. And although I didn’t get their names, the man and woman who were basically at the front desk the entire weekend were great as well. And while I’m at it, the people at the valet couldn’t have been better. Nice property, but even better people!

This hotel is great when in San Jose. Still a nice Hilton propery with a nice bar and food. Hotel still does housekeeping service daily. You can expect consistency here unlike many hotels in San Jose. Bring your gym clothes as they have an outstanding gym. Be prepared for the $50 per night valet fee, but at least they are fast bringing your car around.
