Top Stanford Hotel Reviews

Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Love the location and how convenient it is to restaurants, train station, and other hotels. Very good daily buffet breakfast for hotel guests. The only "complaint" I have was the wifi was very spotty, very difficult to deal with if you're trying to work."

Sonesta Select San Jose Airport

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at this hotel for 1 night before my trip and 1 night after, to make getting to and from the airport more convenient. The hotel clerk Mark was gracious and accommodating. My room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. In my opinion, the room was over-scented. Perhaps most people won't find that off-putting, but I found it bordered on overwhelming. I will likely stay there again, but when I make my reservation, I will request they don't use chemicals to scent the room! 😉"

SFO El Rancho Inn SureStay Collection by Best Western

8/10 Good

"Facility seems very old. I smelled funny when I opened the door, but the room is very well maintained other than that. The hotel staff were friendly and professional. The breakfast was tasty and generous. They have plenty of parking space as well."
