The Hensley Historic District was adopted as a local Historical Landmark District in 1990 by the San Jose City Council. The district contains over 225 buildings that contribute to its historic character, representing the largest concentration of Victorian era residences in greater San Jose.
The namesakes of the district, Major Samuel J. and Mary Helen Hensley, were early San Jose residents of the American period, whose lives are interwoven with the origins of modern California.The period of significance for the establishment of the historic district is 1865-1918.
456 north 3rd st, named The Hensley house, is one of the top well-perserved Victorian building since 1894.
It was a B&B in 70th, and turned into Airbnb by its new owner. Now, the Hensley House has 7 unities, all has its own bathroom, some has full kitchen.
The Unit 1, located at the first floor, is the most well kept from the original interior amount other units. Colorful stained glass, hand carved wood cabinet, gold chandelier, hand painted ceiling with gold foil…
While experiencing the historical beauty, newly remodeled shower, bath top, and kitchen will give guests higher comfort level.
Sleeping on the Tempur-pedic bed, with the fireplace by the side, watching 55in smart TV, will call for the night.

I used to live in this neighborhood and it was so great being back. It is far enough out of downtown to not have too much noise but close enough to walk or grab the light rail to get to anything you need. Room was great and wish my trip had been longer to enjoy it more!

Three nights in San Jose

The property was enchanting, its wonderful architecture and its lush history we found just great! My fiance's sister and her daughter loved their room as well. We were in town for my fiance's younger daughter's wedding in Los Gatos at Nestldown which was also amazing. We just couldn't get over how incredibly fortunate we were to have found this magical place and not just staying at another motel somewhere. I would highly recommend staying at The Hensley House to anyone visiting San Jose!!

Beautiful victorian home

What can I say. This property was absolutely beautiful. The images do not do it justice. The bed was probably one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in. Check in was easy. Finding the house was easy! And communication was the best part! The . They always responded within minutes of me asking a question I will be staying here anytime I come to San Jose. <3

Great location

Things we really liked: The location was convenient and very walkable to Japantown and downtown SJ. We appreciated the keurig coffee in the room, and bottled water tank near the shared kitchen where we could refill our water bottles. The bed was comfortable. Very short wait for hot water in the shower and sinks to start up. The owners were very quick and responsive to messages sent through the app. Beautiful succulents in the back yard. We also appreciated the free street parking. However, it’s an older house so the walls are very thin and we could hear the neighbors, not just in the house, but also outside. It wasn’t the cleanest but ok. In room 1, just fyi, the area above the toilet door, where I assume once had a window, is windowless, so the toilet is not enclosed to contain your personal sounds and smells. The entry was sprayed with a really strong scent, as well as the linens had a strong detergent scent. So if you are sensitive to fragrance, be warned.

Beautiful historic neighborhood

We appreciated the prompt and professional communication throughout. The first floor room where we stayed was clean and tidy, with its own en suite toilet and shower. The bed was very comfortable, and the faux fireplace heater did a great job of heating up the whole room. The room was smaller than appears in the website pictures. The rest of the house was cluttered because of construction work being done but that’s temporary. We took advantage of and enjoyed the neat pamphlet available for a historic neighborhood walking tour. All around a wonderful stay on the edge of Japantown San Jose. Thank you!

Beautiful restored Victorian home

Room we stayed in, and entire house, is simply gorgeous. From the restored furniture to the stained glass windows. Good location not far from downtown, Japan Town shops/restaurants and highway access. Surrounding neighborhood safety/cleanliness looked questionable, but this quiet and charming street was full of historic, well-maintained homes. FYI, like many Victorian homes that have been chopped up into separate apartments or rent-by-the-room, the layout was a bit odd: the toilet and sink are in a separate room from the shower and bathtub. Inconvenient but we worked around it.

Unexpected Conditions

The room (Room 1) was noisy:The floor squeaks when somebody moves upstairs. Pipes bang when somebody uses the toilet upstairs. Vehicle noise on the street outside is significant. Unusual odor:There's an odor in the bed laundry that is unique and not pleasant. Poorly maintained:The facility is generally run down and condition of walls, doors, etc. are noticeably worn.It appears that the floors were quickly cleaned, as there was debris in the corners, behind chairs, and under the bed.Some of the kitchen utensils were sticky.Guidance lacking:There are no instructions in the room for how things work.  Poor parking:Parking is very difficult because it's only on the street and this is a crowded residential area. We had to park two blocks from the facility.Missing feature:Although the facility had a beautiful dining area and a full kitchen, no coffee or pastries were provided for a light breakfast.If these issues are addressed, this facility would be worthwhile.

This property is gorgeous. Staying here is an indulgence in grand luxury with a distinctive style. However, we do have a few complaints. Many amenities were missing. There was no hair dryer, and the clothes steamer box was in the closet, but it contained no steamer. Washcloths we're not provided. The Keurig coffee maker in the lobby barley worked, spitting out half a cup of tepid, pale coffee. The full sized refrigerator and freezer did not have real cream. Only powdered creamer was available. These are nit picks to be sure, but for the price, we were expecting the amenities to be as advertised.

There weren't any hand towels in bathroom, which I found odd. I was only staying one night, so didn't open fridge or use kitchen, but the dishwasher was all dirty and stained from the outside. Windows don't seem to open, so the morning when the shower was running, it got really warm in there. No way to control temps. I also had to reach out to host to get my access information morning of instead of the details being provided to me. Property looks elegant in photos, but doesn't translate in person. The bed was comfy and clean! The shower had great pressure and a good shower head! We stayed here as it was affordable compared to locations closer to Levi stadium. The grounds were underwhelming, but overall totally fine for one night.

Perfect stay for wedding weekend

This little gem was just right for me. All of the wedding events were within 10-15 minutes, because of the central location. The unit was charming, well supplied, and had a wonderful bathtub and shower. I also loved the electric fireplace that could be put on a timer and had the option for heat. It was just a perfect setup for me - I would stay again. The shared kitchen and living space was very nice. Hot water, keurigs, snacks, place to cook food if you want. The historical aspect was especially appealing to me, and there is a booklet with descriptions of the house architecture on the street and the history of the Hensley community from the 1800s. Great stay!
