Hotel San José Courtyard Lounge
Pause in Hotel San José’s garden courtyard lounge for a drink and light fare on South Congress. This public gathering space offers a quieter look at the adapted motor-court setting.
The conversion of an older roadside hotel into planted courtyards gives the lounge its distinctive setting. Low buildings, outdoor spaces and the street’s activity sit close together, making a settled drink more rewarding than a quick photograph. Visit for the public lounge; the hotel’s rooms and pool are separate from this experience.
