Hotels Near West Bay Opera in Palo Alto

We go to Palo Alto regularly for visits to Stanford and typically stay in one of the chain hotels. Thought we’d change it up and stay somewhere different. Dinah’s filled the bill! So cute! It’s an older hotel, but that just adds to the charm! We stayed in a deluxe garden room. The room was huge and had the most quaint little patio. It was so calming to hear the water outside and to see the koi and ducks. The room was clean and had all of the standard amenities. And, bonus, we were able to bring our dog! They even have a cute little dog park on the premises! We will definitely stay there again!

excellent service good location nice view My top one choice to stay in Palo Alto

THE GOOD: The hotel was recently renovated, rooms are nicely renovated with beautiful bathrooms. A nice size fitness center and a small but nice pool area. THE BAD: Wifi was absolutely horrible, there was ZERO wi-fi service in the lobby, restaurant or pool area. The Wi-fit would connect for 2 - 3 seconds then drop. When I asked the attended at the café if I could use the Westin Meeting wi-fi I was told no, they don’t have the password. In my room every so often the wi-fi would drop and it would take 20 – 30 minutes to reconnect!!! Furthermore, the power outlet at the desk was dead, there was also no power near the bed to plug in your laptop! Sadly, the food and beverage offerings at this hotel are on par with a Holiday Inn Express. There is no full-service restaurant, just a grab and go café which serves mediocre food. There is a limited breakfast buffet in the morning with poor quality food. On both mornings of my stay the scrambled eggs were a rubbery mess, the breakfast potatoes lacked flavor. The only item that seemed decent to eat were the fresh berries and bread. The quality of the food from room service/grab and go was also upsetting. If you want a full-service dinning experience, you are told to walk over to the Sheraton…. really? BTW: I was told the hotel kitchen is also located at the Sheraton, food is not cooked onsite at the Westin. Hospitality at the hotel is hit and miss. The front desk seems pleasant, but staff were very hesitant to go the extra mile to please… they lacked the hospitality soft skills I have experienced at other hotels of the same caliber. Café staff is very unhelpful, not very friendly, I receive a far better guest experience at my local In-N-Out Burger. In the end if you are expecting an upscale hotel experience in the Palo Alto / Stanford area the Westin disappoints. For the price I would expect a memorable experience, one where you would hate to leave and could not wait to return. During my stay I was looking forward to leaving, I really felt like it was a waste of $$$ and time staying here. When I left, I felt like I had just stayed at a Holiday Inn express with upscale rooms. Hotel should be rebranded... it's not an upscale full service hotel that is about hospitality with a mindset of wellness.

This is a basic motel with average rooms. The exterior is well maintained and clean The rooms furnishings are a bit worn, but it had everything we needed. Odd that the microwave is sitting on top of the small refrigerator on the floor? There were small dents in the walls, a couple holes in the curtains and carpets. No shampoo in the dispenser in the shower. We had our own with us so we didn’t bother the desk for a refill. We were here for a visit to Stanford medical so this met our needs. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The area is a mix of commercial and office buildings. A couple of restaurants a bit further away. Nothing but Carls Jr. close. We felt safe walking around. We will be back again as we have more work being done at Stanford. (20 minutes away)

I can not say enough amazing things about the Stanford Park Hotel. We used this hotel for our wedding room block and they went above and beyond what was required of them. My guests felt extremely welcomed, the hotel is absolutely stunning and the staff is excellent. This is not a 4 star hotel in my opinion I would rate this as a 5 star hotel. Our guests could not stop raving about the Standford Park Hotel!

房間非常不隔音，隔壁説話聲非常清晰，能聽到隔壁打呼嚕，房間較小，乾淨，早餐很簡單，停車免費，房間價格偏高

I have stayed one night twice in this location. First stay, the FOH was getting trained, focus was on checking me in the computer. Second visit, quick check in process, friendly staff, forgot to write my room number nor mention it to me, good thing I saw in app after parking. $18 on site parking either open next to hotel entrance, or in a gated covered lot. The room has a modern look with the vanity separating the bedroom and bathroom. The 1 king bed room has frosted walls/doors with no locks for the shower and toilet, not a fan of the frosted look because it does not look clean for me. The vanity had motion sensor lights on the bottom. The shower has both a shower head and has a rainfall shower system - pressure was both appropriate, strong for the shower head, moderate for the rainfall. Behind the vanity, facing the bed was a floor to almost the ceiling mirror - still don’t know how I feel about this haha. I do like the modern feel. The bed felt comfy. The room could be cleaner. There were some hair strands next to toilet and there were a couple under the duvet. There was a green stain on the water flush and a dried visible stain on the counter by the sink - we typically bring cleansing wipes to clean our room regardless but cleanliness definitely could be better. Great sized tv and desk available as a working space. Side note: it’s right next to 10 Butcher’s which is an upscale kbbq place pricey but yummy!👍

The hotel is newly opened so the hardware is very new and the price is cheap. The hotel has a small laundry room. The room is equipped with a sofa bed. Four people can stay there without any problems. The sound insulation is very good. Although the breakfast cannot be compared with that in China, it is good for this trip. There is no bottled water in the room. You can only get water from the restaurant and gym on the first floor. Parking for the night is $10, which is very cheap. It is recommended to park at the hotel. Overall very satisfied

Free parking , 2 hr early check in without paying extra fee. Rooms were clean , very comfortable beds. Union landing close by ,many restaurants can find any type of foods, shopping center just in case .
