Top Stanford University Arboretum Hotel Reviews

The Nest Hotel Palo Alto

8/10 Good

"Had a good visit. The room was clean and the staff were nice when you were able to be assisted had to wait on them a few times. There were just a few things gas that effected the visit. The walls are thin and upstairs guest were walking around a lot in shoes late at night. The TV stopped working couldn’t turn it back on."

Clement Palo Alto – All-Inclusive Urban Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A very pleasant stay at this hotel…nice and quiet staff is super friendly and best of all its all inclusive. Service wise this is better than the four seasons palo alto"

The Cardinal Hotel

8/10 Good

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

Four Seasons Hotel Silicon Valley at East Palo Alto

8/10 Good

"paula is responsible for client experience and she is phenomenal!!"

Mint House Menlo Park by Kasa

10/10 Excellent

"The property was beautiful and looked exactly like the photos. It was in a very nice clean area, pet friendly, and had a lot of space to work. We did not get to check out the gym but it looked very nice as well! Definitely looking forward to staying at other Kasa properties in the future!"

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!"
