Hacienda Hotels Offer Travelers Comfort, Business Amenities Whether They're Staying Overnight or for Over a Week

Hacienda's hotels are unique in that they have two markets to serve. With the Tri-Valley area's proximity to tourist sites in San Francisco, Livermore wine country, and other attractions, recreational travelers come here frequently. With over 400 companies in Hacienda and even more in the Tri-Valley, the unique needs of business travelers - high-speed Internet access and a desk or other workspace, for example - must be met as well.

Abundant Choices and Amenities

Fortunately, it's not necessary to look outside the park to find quality lodgings ideal for business or recreational travelers. With four different hotels offering a total of over 600 rooms, there's a place for anyone who needs to feel at home on the road.
