Living room

Stayed here one night to be near Stanford Hospital. Good distance with lots of business and food options near by. We were in room 105, I really liked how convenient it was from the parking lot. Cute little walk way with seating. Room was clean and spacious. Shower head had an aggressive stream. Housekeeping did try to enter at 8:30am, I felt like that was entirely too early for them to be knocking but other than that we had a nice stay. I would stay again for the convenience to the hospital.

My partner and I reserved a Deluxe King Suite room for two nights in Palo Alto, CA. The Creekside Inn stood out to us because of it being a cute little spot built on a creek. The customer service was very good and professional. The pool was very nice, clean, and secluded. The pool is also heated so you can swim in colder weather or at night. The room itself was very clean and open. The bed is big and comfortable. The bathroom was clean and offered a lot from complimentary toiletries to a makeup mirror. The shampoo, conditioner, and body wash did not irritate my body and my skin felt moisturized. The balcony was cute as it looked over the creek and a little fountain. They offer continental breakfast and fresh pastries each morning. A little deli that serves coffee and sandwiches is attached to the hotel as well. A TV, mini fridge, microwave, closet, and coffee maker are provided. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and my time in Palo Alto :)

Name of manager I emailed attempting to recieve full refund from.

January 2026 I had thee worst experience and it could have been easily avoided. I called the hotel day of check in (which wasn't until 3 pm) at noon to explain there was an emergency with my infant son and they claimed it was third party (Expedia) who was in charge of full refund not them. So I called Expedia and they said they understood my situation and would waive the fee for cancellation day of. Fast forward to the next day my request was denied by Creekside inn so they lied about not being able to help me. My son had a successful open heart surgery the very next day and we were selected Monday at noon to check into Ronald McDonald which is 4 min away from my son at Stanford children's hospital free of charge. Vernette and Anna were completely heartless in the matter. Shoutout to Jesus at the desk who tried everything in his power to work with Expedia and I during that unforeseen time. Unfortunately I do not recommend staying here do to their lack of compassion for their guests I was fully charged a day for my troubles. So I only received a partial refund not the full refund that Expedia and myself worked toward achieving.

Creekside Inn is a fantastic place to stay. The grounds are beautiful, heated pool, deli and restaurant on site and staff are very friendly. I spoke to the deli owner (been there for 35 years) and he pointed us in the right direction for a few local spots to visit. Creekside is a hidden gem!

Robes were very comfortable!

This property was affordable and very close to Stanford University so met all my needs. It was clean, the staff was friendly, & they even offer a free bottle of wine. Beds were comfortable, towels were good quality and overall I wouldn't mind staying here. Now the cons: there was definitely a funky smell to the room. Not exactly a horrible one, but a funk nonetheless. The wine, although a kind gesture, you get what you pay for, lol. I also could not get the shower amenities to pump out. I personally don't like using the amenities with pumps but was really curious how they smelled with the names. None of these were deal breakers. My absolute FAVORITE part about this property which made the other small things fade is the beauty. Outside in the morning was absolutely stunning!

We found Creekside Inn several years ago after our son became a patient at Stanford & we have come to view it as a haven from stressful days at the hospital. We have visited here often over the years & been happy with each stay. The grounds are beautiful, relaxing & serene. Our standard room is always clean with very nice amenities. They are kind enough to offer a 'Stanford' rate which is extremely helpful & it's an easy drive to Stanford. The deli next door has great food & they are always friendly. I don't think we could find a nicer place to stay.

The creek
Dennis H.

Nice rooms and fair rates for the area. Our room was right on the creek and the atmosphere was great . Highly recommend if your in the South Bay Area

All of the belongings we left in the room were just put unattended outside prior to 9am, when checkout wasn't until 11.

Right from the get go our on-site coordinators helped ensure that everything went perfectly in the lead up to our special day and on it. We had amazing food and drink for us and all our guests, exceptionally well kept rooms, and an easy working experience for all our external vendors who contributed to our special day. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful in its design with its Spanish influenced architecture and every room having a little balcony overlooking the intimate courtyard or if its on the outside of the hotel, the downtown Palo Alto area. We honestly couldn't have imagined a better venue for our wedding, everyone had a good time and not a single thing went wrong. My wife and I were even in the penthouse for the weekend, an amazing two bedroom suite on the top floor with not one but TWO private balconies, a jet tub, and a beautiful double sink bathroom with the works. el PRADO made sure that the most special day in my life went perfectly and me and my wife will always remember that.

The issue was that the cleaning staff did not clean the bathroom at the 2nd night. The bathtub was dirty, so we had to clean it up. The floss and toilet paper were not filled. We did not bother to call as it was near midnight. We were disappointed it was not cleaned even with the high tips we left on the 1st night. Also, we were not explained about breakfast areas and complimentary drinks when we checked in. We found it out when we were checking out.

To be fair, each time we had to go back to the front desk to get one or more of our cards rekeyed, staff was quick to do so. In general, service at the hotel was great, including valet parking charging our Tesla for us. Pro tip: use the app (Hotel Citrine is part of the Marriott Bonvoy program) to make requests and get fast responses - it's very efficient!

The pool connects with an indoor/ outdoor dining area - perfect for a drink (a glass of bubbly perhaps) plus a small bite. The bar area also has free Equator (local North Bay beloved coffee) for patrons. The rooms are small but efficiently designed. Modern design with some mid century modern style metal bars, decors, and motifs. Front desk sells glass bottles of Evian water if you want to have something fancy. It is not quite in the Stanford part of Palo Alto but is a quick uber ride or a drive away. Perfect for reunion, campus event or silicon valley tech events. We stopped by for a staycation. Loved it. Beautiful, boutique, well designed, also minimalist, efficient - perfect for a business trip

This is beautiful hotel that I've stayed once a few years ago. I remembered that the room was clean…read moreand modern. Not a fan of valet parking, but it is what it is. Staff here are friendly and nice. Restrooms are clean and modern! Last night I came for the jazz night in their lounge. It was Terrigal and Tamara that were performing, and they sounded lovely! I truly enjoyed the music for the night. My gal friend and I first sat at a sofa nearby the stage, and we kept smelling farts. Someone nearby kept letting it rip. Not okay. Eventually halfway through the jazz night, we relocated to a couch towards the back where there was less people. But then the people who was sitting close to us followed and sat on the couch next to us too. Lol We both enjoyed a glass of wine, and it was good. I definitely recommend coming here for their jazz night. It seems to be happening every other Friday. Since one of my girl friends couldn't make it last night, we'll be coming again for the next jazz night on March 27th. :) I definitely recommend parking on San Antonio to save the $10 valet parking fee!

In the lounge, they have live jazz on Some Fridays 6-8. Tonight they had Terrigal Burn on keyboard…read moreand Tamara Dunn on vocals. The quality of the musicians was great. But the acoustics of the room are terrible, and the sound system provided by the band was sub-par. This is yet another case where the construction skimped on acoustic treatment. Because of the bad acoustics, I don't think I would recommend the jazz nights. If you go, you can either pay $10 for valet parking, or you can park across the street on San Antonio Road and walk over.
