Hotel Avante, a Joie de Vivre Boutique Hotel

Hotel Information: Located at the border of Mountain View and Sunnyvale, this boutique hotel, which caters to younger, tech-savvy business travelers, is a mix of retro-chic, modernist styles, and meditative decor. Kidney-shaped tables and vintage photographs juxtapose modern amenities such as complimentary wireless and wired Internet access. Jazz and Fusion are piped into the soothing lobby area.

Amenity highlights: Opened in 2001, the Avante offers complimentary high-speed Internet access in the guestrooms, the business center, and the Hi-Fi Lounge.
