Top Sunnyvale Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Sunnyvale/Silicon Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely an older property but everything was clean and the staff was friendly and very helpful. Free breakfast was also very nice with a variety to choose from. I read a few reviews about the wifi barely working or not working at all but I logged in and had no problems with the connection. This was a perfect place to stay for spending time at Great America and it was reasonably priced. I'd definitely stay again for any future visits"

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Sunnyvale

8/10 Good

"I've stayed at this property off and on for about a decade now when I visit my work campus in Palo Alto, but I couldn't help but notice during my latest visit (16-17 Oct 2026) that the property was starting to get rundown. The room I stayed in (#111) had cracks in the bathroom sink and the bathtub. I noticed there is ongoing work and renovation, but I would pay a higher rate at this property (~$150 per night or more) if it means repairs can be effected faster--the location is so very convenient for me."
