Mountain views and restaurants are just a few things travellers like about East Palo Alto. A stop by San Francisco Bay is also recommended if you've got time to explore the area.
While Barron Park may not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like San Antonio Shopping Center and Stanford Maples Pavillion.
Enjoy the student vibe around Stanford University, a top university in Palo Alto. Attend a sporting event or simply enjoy the top-notch restaurants while you're in the area.
We found the downtown eating area super fun, with lots of options. We also went to the dining district of Mountain View. Great food. Palo Alto had tons of hiking options for all likes a short drive away.

As the heart of Silicon Valley, do not expect things to be inexpensive. It is vibrant and interesting though.

It has good hotels, nice community . It is at the door step to the beautiful Stamford university campus, close to San Francisco airport and downtown wharf area for sight seeing.

Outside from the tech bros, downtown Palo Alto is a beautiful city with lots of restaurants and shopping to enjoy.

After reserving a top-notch hotel, I had a great time in Palo Alto. I enjoyed the variety of cultural differences and meeting people from all over the world. Unfortunately, my trip started with extreme stressors because of the situation with hotels a

This hotel is 3 miles from Stanford University. I had a doctor appointment there. So it was conveniently located. On the short drive there i was intrigued and fascinated with Palo Alto's ecclectic beauty.

Palo Alto is where I grew up but El Camino is run by the State Department of Transportation and they need to repave it. There's busses and RV's lining the streets that should be ticketed immediately. PAPD step it up!!

Seems to be changing for the worse. I suppose it reflects many issues including the economy. I hope to see future improvements but it would be asking a lot!

Palo Alto is a nice town but suffers from ubiquitous California's high prices.
"Everything was top of the line here. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. We want to give a special shout out to the afternoon and evening staff working on Saturday, June 29, 2025! They went way above and beyond to make our visit a wonderful experience! My granddaughter especially loved having “her own” TV and all of the great food and drink options. We are looking forward to coming back once the rooftop pool renovation is completed!"
