Hotel De Anza believes in giving back to the community, to the earth and to humanity. To that end, we look for ways to be better stewards of our community – whether locally in San Jose or on a larger scale. We go beyond typical eco-friendly hotels who merely recycle paper, glass and plastic; we use energy-efficient bulbs in the hotel, we recycle kitchen grease for biofuels, and we partner with organizations like Bay Area Kids and St. Jude’s – and Clean the World that provides soap for children in Africa. And we offer opportunities for our guests to contribute as well through special packages where a portion of the nightly rate goes to a local charity.
