The Zen Hotel Palo Alto
"The hotel is convenient for a one night stay. Don’t expect anything beyond services that a motel provides you. The breakfast is basic. The air conditioning in the room is the noisiest I have ever experienced. Noise isolation is poor. No curtains in the bathroom window that can be seen from the outside. ..."

Hotel Zico, BW Signature Collection
"I was in the area for a wedding with my elderly mother, booked last minute. The staff were nice and helpful. A few issues with our stay; the lights in the restroom have sensors and extremely bright.

Graduate by Hilton Palo Alto
"Beautiful and fun hotel. Nice location. Make a point to check out the rooftop bar. F&B pricey, but that’s par for the course in Palo Alto. I wish they had a “normal” coffee pot in the room vs a fancy pour over and free lobby coffee would be nice. We hope to return next year."
