Where to Stay for the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival 2019

Every September in Silicon Valley, the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival brings world-class art, music, and food to downtown for what promises to be "a festival like no other." Taking place on Castro Street, Saturday and Sunday, September 7-8, 2019, this year marks the 48th anniversary of the beloved festival. Benefitting the Mountain View Chamber of Commerce, the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival is one the most anticipated festivals in the South Bay, with more than 500 artists, food vendors, craft breweries, and wineries gathering in one place. How can you get in on one of the best festivals in the Bay Area? The food, music, and art-filled Castro Street is just a few blocks from Hotel Strata—less than five minutes by car or a 15-minute walk. Located on El Camino Real, ours is one of the closest hotels to Castro Street and the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival, making it easy to go out and enjoy two days of drinks, food trucks, concerts, and art without worry. The Mountain View Art & Wine Festival is slated to be one of the best on record, with artists and craftspeople selling everything from wearable art and jewelry to woodwork, sculptures, prints, and featured booths of organic produce and eco-friendly products—something we especially love at the environmentally conscious Hotel Strata. The festival also highlights the latest offerings from local craft breweries and wineries, with specialty cocktails and mixed drinks made just for the event available for tasting. Visitors will also have the chance to taste and shop for gourmet food items, including artisanal jams, sweet treats, oils, and vinegars, along with street food and comfort cuisine from a selection of food trucks. Topping off the festivities are dozens of booths and activities for all, including concerts by local musicians, family activities at the Super Duper Kids' Park, and the chance to be on live TV at the KMVT15 SPEAK OUT booth. Check out all the featured exhibits at the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival and plan your stay during one of the most exciting weekends in the fall at Hotel Strata.
