    We especially loved the restaurant patio, where the atmosphere, live music, and exceptional food created a truly memorable dining experience. Everything about our stay felt thoughtfully curated and relaxing. This hotel offers a one-of-a-kind experience, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a charming, elegant, and unforgettable place to stay!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The Stanford Park Hotel didn’t just provide us with a place to stay—it gave us a feeling of belonging. We truly felt at home.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very classy institution which is next door to standord University.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The manager of this hotel, Crystal, is beyond incredible. Her staff will know you by name by the time you leave. There is no request that is too big. They respond with such grace and a helpful attitude. It is hard to find service like this at any hotel! Will definitely return.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Beautiful hotel in a very convenient location. Walking distance to the Stanford Shopping Center and close to other shops and restaurants and to Stanford. The hotel pool and spa are well maintained. There’s poolside dining available. There’s a nice coffee bar in the morning in the lobby and the best chocolate chip cookies in the evening. The reception team is welcoming and helpful. I appreciated having a decent size fridge in the room. The beds are comfortable. I’m a light sleeper so being near the train was a concern but we heard nothing. It was much quieter than the chain hotels in the area. I’d definitely recommend the hotel and I plan to stay here again.

    Guests feel like visiting royalty at the Stanford Park. Then after several stays you become family! We love our home away from home. Can't wait to go back!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    A really beautiful, clean hotel with incredibly kind staff. I’m rating it lower however because the air conditioning would not cool my room (had it turned all the way down). I was only there one night and needed sleep but unfortunately couldn’t sleep much because I was too hot.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The hotel was beautiful and the staff were very kind and accommodating. The room was spacious and very clean. The food at the restaurant downstairs is very good and it had a lovely courtyard for outdoor seating.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    You booked the wrong date and charged me for it!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    It’s a beautiful, classy hotel in the heart of Stanford area, our room was spacious , but had a cozy feel, nice comfortable bed and pillow, clean, beautiful patio, the staff were nice and helpful. The location is perfect walking distance to Stanford Shopping center, Cafe Barone, downtown Menlo Park. A beautiful place to stay!

  • Engine customer May 2026

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Staff allowed us to Check In Early what a lovely property and Great front desk staff

  • Engine customer May 2026

    This is a beautiful property. The staff was so helpful and friendly also. I’d stay here time and again!’

  • Engine customer May 2026

    However, if you reserve an outdoor dining spot ~30 minutes in advance, be prepared for host staff to feign ignorance of your reservation and arbitrarily determine that there is no outdoor seating available and move you inside. Then enjoy your delicious meal and friendly service while being in plain view of an empty table for four outside for the duration of your meal. Perhaps we weren't the host staffs' preferred clientele. An unacceptable blemish on an otherwise spotless experience.
