Creekside Inn

"Great quick stay, super complimentary and well maintained"

Menlo Park Inn

10/10 Excellent

The Cardinal Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location was perfect. The bar in the corner is loud until close."

The Stanford Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Sheraton Palo Alto Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient to Stanford with everything you need."

Clement Palo Alto – All-Inclusive Urban Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved this place! Was worth every penny & more! Staff was amazing, resort was clean & room was very comfortable! Food was excellent, the only thing I didn't like was that it was the same menu for lunch & dinner ever day we were there. Wish they had had more options. Will definitely be back!"

Hotel Keen

10/10 Excellent

"Great boutique hotel in the heart of old downtown Palo Alto"

Crowper Inn

8/10 Good

"The grounds of Cowper Inn are lovely, the location is superb, and felt very safe. Hugo was very kind and helpful. The property consists of two large, historic looking mansions, side by side on a street corner. The lock on our suite wasn't working, so we were moved to a ground floor suite on the street corner, which was louder than I had hoped. The house we were moved to reminded me of a hostel (only nicer) in that there were several individual rooms, with a shared seating area and kitchen. Our suite had a private bathroom, I'm not sure what the single rooms are like. My 13 yo daughter really liked our suite, as did I, though I didn't sleep very well due to the noise, and I was grumpy that there was no coffee in the room or kitchen (there were devices to make coffee, just no coffee itself). I would stay again, with the expectation that I might need to be flexible. I should add that this could be a perfect place to stay for people who enjoy the aspects of a shared space, but want something nicer and more peaceful than a hostel."

Nobu Hotel Palo Alto

10/10 Excellent

"Very Clean, great location!"
