The Los Gatos lodge is starting to show it's age. We attended a event in Saratoga and this was a good low cost option ($89 for a queen bed 2 people). The room was clean but the bed was too soft and springy for me. The pillows sucked. The room had a refrigerator and coffee pot. The room was quiet and overlooked the courtyard/garden. Close to everything in Los Gatos is the only reason I can think to stay here again.
I liked the Los Gatos Lodge for the low cost room charge. I work around the Los Gatos area and to find a cheap hotel is hard to find in this area. But Los Gatos Lodge has cheap rooms, they accept pets, the Gym was great, the out door patio was nice as well. I will come back to the Los Gatos Lodge and I recommend it.
I stay here for a week at a time because I have business in town & the co. gets a corp. rate. In all my trips I've never seen a room like the one pictured. Perhaps some have been renovated but none that I've stayed in. Ask to see a room before you rent it. The hotel is aging & it shows. The mgmt is obviously just trying to hold ...

Nice location

The location was right off the freeway. The day we arrived, they had an outdoor wedding and the music was quite loud. The room was outdated but clean. Our balcony overlooked the courtyard. The hotel staff were helpful and we were given maps to various restaurants. We walked to these places but would not recommend walking to those that have health issues.
We have stayed here many times over the years and found the Lodge to be a bit, well, inconsistent. Our most recent visit in May '08 was VERY disappointing. Despite reservations made 3 months in advance, and confirmed 3 weeks in advance NONE of our requests were able to be handled on the first or second or third try. We asked for a king, n/s, ...

Great for pets
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/27/06
We stayed in the lodge for about 6 weeks while on business in Silicon Valley. We have a small dog so needed a pet friendly place. The grounds and staff are great but the rooms are definitely aging a bit. If you've got a pet the lodge is hard to beat for the price.

Great place at a great price
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/06/06
I was pleasently surprised at the many services the Los Gatos Lodge offers, such as complimentary breakfast, free wireless, room service, and a Bar & Grill. All this for only $139, rather than the average rate of $229+ charged by their competitors. The Lodge is by far the best cost effective choice in Los Gatos.

Bad experience
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/29/06
Worst hotel room I've ever had for the price. Furniture had to be 30+years old and in poor condition, air conditioner was LOUD and could not be adjusted, so you were either freezing and couldn't sleep with the noise or no air. Carpets were stained. Bed covers were aged and smelled badly. Bathroom window had open slats, which is ...

I've heard different things from different people about this hotel and as a native of Los Gatos I only recently had the chance to stay here. What a charming little place this is! We stayed in a kitchenette and it was perfect for our needs. Our balcony faced the garden area which was full of greenery and so many beautiful flowers. The only ...

Great place to stay

I stayed here last weekend attending a wedding. I was impressed with the beauty of the grounds, the food was great, the rooms were a bit outdated but clean, a great place to bring your pet!
