What guests think

AC Hotel San Jose Airport Belen draws frequent praise for its modern, very clean spaces, friendly bilingual staff, and convenient location near SJO with a free but limited-schedule shuttle, plus a rooftop pool, bar, gym, and handy food trucks.

Several reviewers mention room noise from corridors or neighbors, and a few flagged housekeeping lapses like dirty floors, missing toiletries, or slow service. Dining earns compliments, but prices can be high and late-night options are limited, with occasional confusion about breakfast inclusion. Overall, expect a comfortable stay that suits pre- or post-flight nights well.

Can’t say enough of how enjoyable this last business trip was. This property is a newer modern hotel that was very close to the Airport. There on site conference rooms came in handy for an unscheduled meeting. The Starbucks and food court onsite was convenient when I didn’t have time to dine in one of their excellent restaurants. My Spanish is not great but that didn’t matter as the entire staff including the 24/7 security people all spoke fluent English, they even had the NBA finals games on it the lounge, anyway will always book there from now on if I have to come back to San Jose.

The pool in not working and I came here to relax at the pool. I asked at front desk if they could help me get in the pool of the next Marriott close to here and they told me I had to pay 98 more dollars for a day pass, which was not ok beacuse this hotel should have their own pool or find a way to accommodate their guests while their pool is not working.

Fantastic base camp for San Jose. Very nice, new hotel with a gorgeous rooftop pool (though cold like all SJO pools). Pricey but nice bars. The hotel also has a little strip mall of useful shops, bakery, pharmacy, etc. as well as a super nice "food truck" court with amazing food options and a playground for the kids. The location is unremarkable except that it is 10 minutes from the airport- fantastic for early flights. The only downside is the limited airport shuttle hours (though taki to SJO was only $20).

This is a beautiful and clean hotel close to shops and restaurants. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel advertises an airport shuttle, but that shuttle only comes once per hour between certain hours. I had to wait almost an hour for it at the airport when arriving and then my flight left too early to be able to take it on the return. When I see "airport shuttle" I expect it to be easier to utilize.

The staff were very friendly and professional and common areas were clean and attractive. Our room however had a floor that turned our feet black within minutes of walking with no shoes. It was gross and made me wonder how clean the rest of the room was. The mattress had noticeable divets were people sat and watched tv, very uncomfortable to sleep on. There were no tissues, lotion or hair conditioner (empty pump bottle in shower). Not what I expect from a Marriott! The area was easy to find food with a lovely coffee and pasty shop and food trucks. Avoid Starbucks and go to the pastry shop-you’ll be glad you did!

This property in San Jose is perfectly located close to the airport. Airport shuttle service was excellent and on time. It was my second time visiting and I was surprised one of the employees remembered my husband and I from our visit last year. It felt like going back home. Additionally, it has great convenient shops, options of places to eat right outside the property. Great security going to the rooms and very clean. Would definitely visit again.

The hotel is clean, nice and quiet. Has food truck area, but not much of out door seating option beside the pool. The pool is not heated so we were not able to enjoy the pool during our visit in December. There's limiting dining options at the hotel. The Sunset Terrance at the pool is mostly bar food with only few options and expensive. Other restaurant that offer dinner is very expensive as well (more expensive than the Spanish cuisine restaurant around the corner outside the hotel). Hotel offer only 1 breakfast option: buffet at the price of $32 USD/person. The parking garage was not well thought out because it asked for key card to exit the garage after we already check-out, the call button was never answered (someone came back to the hotel was nice enough to use their card to open the gate for us to leave. Overall, the hotel was nice, clean, quiet and safe area.

I enjoyed my stay here at the AC hotel! My friend, sister and I booked this hotel last min for a girl's trip. We didn't really realize that it served more business travelers but that was ok because we had the pool to ourselves! Lol Shout out to Joshua for taking care of us! We took lots of pictures around the hotel and we loved going downstairs to the food court that looks like food trucks, as well as, checking out the other shops/restaurant connected to the hotel. Food and drinks were soo good! Everything was all in one place! We didnt have to go far for anything. Security was 24/7 which we loved and they were super aware of what's happening on the premises. If you are looking for a place that is kid friendly I would not recommend. It's more for adults only type of vibe. Staff was super nice and hospitable. Housekeeping also made sure everything was super clean and smelled sooo good! I hope to return again!
