Our “ go to” hotel for short visits to Palo Alto! Great location and rooms well maintained. Staff accommodating and any issues quickly rectified.

Reserved deluxe king with fireplace, was told there were none available. Rather than give an upgrade, we received a downgrade to a lesser room, so I returned the keys and left, never to return.

Atmosphere was inspirational, very cozy for the season with the fireplace going and beautiful decor. Staff was extremely friendly and approachable. My team and I had a great stay here.

This is the third time my team of 20 has stayed at El Prado for business in Palo Alto. The hotel is always a hit with our travelers, and the hotel's events team is terrific. The hotel is walking distance from Stanford and surrounded by restaurants and cafes. All our meetings in the hotel have gone smoothly, with great food, and the guest rooms are a luxury -- as is the fresh coffee in the hallways every morning!
