Hyatt Place Fremont/ Silicon Valley

The check-​in process was too long granted I was the only one in line and had a reservation. I didn’t get the friendly customer service other guests had talked about. I had arrived from a 6hr drive in a night rain so I wasn’t uppity myself so I guess every dog has its day.
Nonetheless, we made the best of our 2 day stay and enjoyed it. The location is awesome and the place was clean. My son also enjoyed his stay.

This place is not what you would expect from hyatt.
I tried to get a room on oct 14. Made a reservation in front of their hotel
When i went to check in they said they didn’t have any rooms I pulled out my i pad and if you make a reservation after 5 pm it automatically books the next day. I told them to cancel it i didn’t need a room the next day we just needed a place to sleep after driving 700 miles. I called numerous times and asked for the manager who was conveniently out but would call me back. I called hotels .com and got nothing but run around. They charged my card 251. For a room i never stayed in nor wanted and just kept the money. It is flat fraud and a large reputable company like hyatt and now
have to resort to scamming people out of money makes a very poor statement about greed. I called hyatt corporate who was going to get back to me and never received an answer either which indicates to me that they are aware of whats going on as well. Too bad you cant just make a profit honestly. I wonder how may people a month get taken for a ride by this on a national basis

This hotel is nice but not the best.
CONS:
1. No microwave in the room
2. Bathroom door doesn’t close!
3. Mini fridge doesn’t have a freezer
4. They don’t change pillow cases… I saw a lot of different types of hair on the pillows. Really gross me out.
5. TV doesn’t offer much channels
PROS:
1. Nice décor and layout from the living room to the bedroom
2. Comfy sofa and carpet look clean
3. Shower has a great water pressure
4. Offer hair dryer
5. Nice size closet with iron and iron board
6. Daily complementary breakfast (not that great but good coffee)
7. Friendly staffs! I love when the staffs have a smile and look like they enjoy what they do. They are also helpful (one gentlemen knew I was looking for something and help me find the fitness room.
8. Fitness room is clean, great selection of equipment, and weights!
9. Has a little bar downstairs
10. Offer ²⁴⁄₇ gallery menu
Okay with that said, I gave this place 4 stars because it serves its purpose if you’re looking for a place to stay due to work related travels. If you’re actually on a vacation (not that I would expect much people would like to come to Fremont for a vacation), this is worth it if you’re not in the room most of your stay.
My list of cons may not be cons for others. My boyfriend travels to Fremont for work a lot and I come out to visit when he has to work on the weekends. The reason they are cons it’s because I’m working from the room. I would like to have a freezer section to chill my water faster and a microwave so I can heat up my leftover without leaving the room to go to the lobby/​common area to heat up my food.
Anywho, I would recommend this place to my friends and family.

What a joke. $ 100+ pet fee for one night stay on a 4lb dog.

It was a good, clean room. In and out. Wham bam, thank you — I’d go again.

Comfy, roomy, practical. These business-​like suites suited us just fine. Free parking, wi-​fi and breakfast. The room has an entryway with a couch, seating area with a desk in the corner with table lamp. There is a mini fridge and coffee station on top of the counter next to a little sink. The king bed was comfy and situated right next to the large window that overlooked the freeway. There is a TV mounted on the wall and can be swiveled to the right or left, depending on whether you’re on the couch or the bed. The bathroom is very small but clean and functional. The shower looked newer, with good height and water pressure; the doors are glass and very modern looking. The sink is located right outside the bathroom (which I typically don’t prefer, but it worked out fine) with a long counter/​vanity area for make-​up application. There are plenty of mirrors throughout the room and the room offered plenty of natural light during the day and had a variety of lamps/​lights during the evening for adequate lighting.
The hotel is located right off the freeway, so there is road noise. We were up on a higher floor but could still hear the din of the freeway traffic at night. There was little to no noise out in the hallway and our rest was pretty peaceful.
It was warm on the days we visited and the room had an AC unit. There is a thermostat that controls heat/​AC but the unit is right next to the window (which is right next to the bed) so the AC was a bit noisy and it got cold pretty fast, since it was blasting a mere few feet away. The rest of the room didn’t cool as efficiently as the bed area, but were were only in the room during the evenings.
As someone with functioning taste buds, I can easily say the complimentary breakfast is very good here. It is served buffet style and they have so much to choose from. Breakfast sandwiches, pancakes, fruit, cereals, juices, coffees, muffins… very tasty and satisfying.
There is a pool on the premises, in the parking area, but it didn’t appear very private so we didn’t check it out; it’s a nice amenity though.

A very nice Hyatt Place! New renovated rooms that are large and spacious! Nice comped breakfast and staff is very friendly and helpful! In many ways, this Hyatt Place out classes many Hyatt Hotels that I have stayed in! Free wi Fi to boot!

We had a wedding block so our out of town guests could stay here. We also stayed here the night before and the day of to get ready and that night.
PROS
— Affordable
— Convenient location (right off ⁶⁸⁰⁄₈₈₀)
— Refrigerator in room which is awesome
— Free water bottle upon check-​in
— Plenty of parking
— Friendly staff
— Pull out sofa beds
— Breakfast included
— Pool (we didn’t check out the pool though)
— Allowed us to pass out gift bags (guests loved it!)
— Phone chargers available to borrow (saved us!)
— Accommodated late check out
— Clean
CONS
— No bridal suite available being the biggest con but we made it work with two rooms
— Bar closes at midnight (we didn’t check the bar out)
Overall we and our guests were very happy here! It’s a clean, convenient, and affordable place to stay. Thank you!

We drove to Fremont from Las Vegas and arrived at 3 am. The front desk is very friendly and got us checked-​in quickly. The room is very modern and comfortable. If we ever need a hotel in this area we will stay here again.

Wonderful stay. Booked last minute for a wedding we went to in Fremont so this was the perfect short distance drive from the venue. When we arrived they explained they had to give us a disability room because it was the only room they had left since I had booked so last minute. Considering this was on New Years Eve I was more than happy to take the room considering all other hotels in the area were probably booked solid. Front desk staff was very gracious and accommodating.
The room was gorgeous and huge. It had a little living area and opened up to the huge King sized bed and the bathroom was incredibly big due to it having room for a wheelchair. I wasn’t complaining. I got a great deal and slept great.
The hotel in itself was very clean and modern. We didn’t partake in breakfast or the pool or any other amenities due to lack of time but I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone and I would definitely stay here again.

Phenomenal stay. They booked last minute and were able to give a super comfortable room.
The staff was extremely pleasant.
The GM personally followed up with a thank you call.
There was free wifi and parking
The room itself in typical Hyatt fashion, was enourmous and quite comfortable.
Highly recommending this place going forward!

Just spent 3 weeks in the Bay Area on business and stayed here. Overall a very nice hotel — with a couple caveats. Nothing really «bad» I can come up with to be honest.
The Good —
1. They seem to have done a solid remodel job here — hotel is clean and well maintained. Rooms are well designed and comfortable with big couch/​TV/​comfy bed. You could easily have someone crash on couch if you needed to. The lobby is nice, with plenty of places to sit.
2. Free breakfast buffet is pretty solid as far as chain hotel breakfasts go — they also offer vegetarian options.
3. Staff is courteous/​professional. Housekeeping did solid job, check-​in and check-​out was seamless.
3. Free WiFi and a panel with HDMI plug/​VGA port for the 42″ plasma TV — perfect if you are a road warrior with a tablet/​etc. you want to watch from.
4. Was relatively convenient to McCarthy Ranch/​North San Jose/​Fremont employers — right across freeway from Tesla factory. Very easy access to 880, not too far from ⁶⁸⁰⁄₂₃₇. Far enough away from Newby Island Landfill to avoid trash smell.
The Eh/​Things To Consider
1. If you are looking for exciting night life/​good location to non-​work things or if you aren’t driving — this is not the hotel for you. You will need a car for sure. It is a business hotel in a business area — not to say there aren’t decent amenities (exercise room/​small pool/​free printing and business center.
2. During the weekend, you get herds of kids sports teams/​family reunions/​etc. coming through — I didn’t hear any of them, but could be an issue if you require absolute silence and you are in a room near them.
3. WiFi, while free, was a little annoying to deal with due to the daily logon requirement, can get a little clogged during peak times.
4. They have a shuttle, but it only goes 8 miles out and will not go to SJC. Kind of a pain in the neck if you have one of the early bird flights/​you want to turn your rental car in early.
Overall, it is a solid choice in the South Bay to stay if you are here for work/​convention/​other gathering or activity where you are out and about. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat should I be out in the SF Bay Area on business again.

Very disappointed. Although the room was nice and clean, when we made our reservation. by calling Hyatt Hotel reservation line, I specifically asked if the. room had a Jacuzzi tub, pool and restaurant the agent said «.all rooms. have Jacuzzi tubs. There
as well as.a.pool. Believing I found what I was looking for booked room. No tub only shower, pool out of service, no restaurant bar or lounge. I was told by staff this happens alot. Will not be back !

Hyatt Place is definitely one of my favorite hotels to stay at. I also stayed at the one in Pleasanton and enjoyed their consistency with the room layout (living room area) and had to go back. Prices were fairly reasonable– $ 100ish (I love staying in hotels in Northern California!)
Some things I like particularly about this hotel:
(+): Free breakfast! Not every hotel in the area can offer this and it’s a relief to not have to worry about an extra meal when you’re on the road (The one in Pleasanton had a better variety).
(+): Free Wifi! Like above, not every hotel has this.
(+): Check out is at 12! It’s nice to sleep-​in!

We picked this hotel because it was so cheap (about $ 85) yet still pretty close to where we wanted to be– only 15 min to Santa Clara, the airport, San Jose. The men and women working at the front desk were friendly, helpful and polite.
The room was larger than I expected for the proce. Had a living room space with a couch, bar with sink, fridge and desk with chair separated from the bedroom with a partition. I liked that the sink was separate from the toilet/​tub. Water pressure was great, but maybe too much, we are in a drought people! Clean room.
Free parking, free newspaper. Free breakfast buffet included eggs, pancakes, fruit, oatmeal, yogurt, sausage, pastries, coffee and tea selection. Would have been better if they had more kinds of juice besides OJ and some potatoes but hey, it was completely satisfactory for the price of free.
Business center to print out your boarding passes, right by the elevator. Excellent stay for a bargain price!

We’ve been to this brand of hotel different parts of the Bay area locations. This one has been a fun stay.
As we pulled up it was pouring down raining. The front door area has an eve that we unloaded our car without getting our stuff wet.
We had a reservation so checking in was quick! Just had to give our name and show ID and the credit card. Love it!
The place looked great! From the front entry, the lobby lounge area, the café, to our room! Nice and clean!
Since it was raining we decided to just stay at the hotel. After we put everything away, we came back to their café. We ordered a couple of the café mocha lattes with cupcakes. The gentleman who helped us was awesome. Not only could he make good lattes, he was super nice and fun. While we were deciding on the flavors of our snacks… he was good at telling us stories. Great service! We ended with wine for our nightcap!
From the front desk gentleman, to the café guy, to the breakfast crew, and to the cleaning ladies… awesome folks. They were all super friendly and courteous.
Our room was a nice comfy queen bed. There’s a nice living room area with a desk nook and kitchen area. Sink, coffee maker, and small fridge. Oooooh! The café downstairs has a small menu of goodies that you can order. (made to order fresh). They have breakfast in the morning, too. Bagels, waffles, fruit, cereal, donuts, juice, coffee, tea, etc.
Minus a star for being a little more pricy from the stay before. I guess everything goes up. Location… location…location. Very convenient right off the highway, too.

Very nice hotel. Large, classy room with nice amenities. Pleasant hotel staff, nice lobby and plenty of parking. The free breakfast is ok but stay away from the little things on English muffins, they look great but pretty much taste like cardboard.
Only two elevators makes waiting for an elevator pretty much standard fair.

My boyfriend and I LOVE this hotel so much! We come here to chill and spend the night together as a quick getaway when we’re just looking to be lazy somewhere nice/​quiet. The hotel has been renovated recently (I think also still ongoing on certain floors/​rooms) and it looks super clean and nice. The rooms are mostly (or maybe all) suite style rooms, complete with a sofa bed, small sink/​kitchen area, and a study desk. The TV comes with a special input panel so that you can use HDMI and other inputs if you choose to.
The bathroom is on the smaller side, but they are clean and modern. I’ve stayed in several rooms here and some bathrooms have doors that hit the toilet when you try to open/​close it, some have doors that stick when you try to open/​close it, but that’s it for the issues. Nothing huge!
Internet can be slow sometimes, but very stable in terms of staying connected.
For the price, this hotel kicks ass compared to other hotels in the area.
Oh, also I should mention that their breakfast is actual, real breakfast complete with a toppings bar for your pancakes/​waffles. eggs, sausages, toast, orange juice, coffee… All complimentary with your stay. Yum!

March, 2014
Husband and I came up to check out places in the greater San Jose area and we needed a place that was centrally located. We really liked this Hyatt!
The customer service is fantastic. The staff goes above and beyond, and they are very pleasant.

We utilized our company discount, and stayed here two nights. This was a very nice hotel.
Pros:
1) Delicious breakfast
2) Fast Wi-​Fi
3) Clean, well kept rooms. In general the hotel and all aspects of it are well kept.
4) Decent work out room with a scale :-)
5) Area to sit and grab a few extra cocktails well past midnight. Employees even fixed us a sandwich while alcohol was pouring into our tummy :-)
Cons:
None that I can think of.
We will definitely be back.
