Clean rooms with beautiful view of the pool and natural landscaping. Owners and staff are friendly and very helpful. The pool was clean and was a nice place to cool off after a day of traveling. We loved the natural landscaping which attracted birds and other local wildlife for viewing. This is a great place for a small group or family traveling together. Next time we'll plan ahead to stay here.

They just finished painting the pool edge...looks great. This is our 3 year at the Trapp Family Inn. The only thing that was different was it was warmer than usually in San Jose than in previous years. The rooms were definitely warmer, but we were glad we had ceiling fans. Service, Food, and hospitality were great. We'll be BACK!

Love this gem of a hotel close to the airport

What a gem, very close to the airport (2 km), good value and genuinely attractive, with a colonial style, rooms have balconies and the garden is tropical and full of exotic plants and trees - one is 300 years old.
