el PRADO

In the heart of downtown Palo Alto, a boutique stay steps from Stanford Shopping Center and a short drive to Stanford University, Bing Concert Hall and local arts spots. Family‑friendly and pet‑friendly, it’s an ideal base for Silicon Valley visits and campus trips.

This 62‑room boutique hotel is set in a lush, Spanish‑courtyard, botanical vibe with a two‑floor solarium and a cozy courtyard lounge. Rooms are individually decorated and often include private balconies, pillowtop beds with Egyptian cotton sheets, flat‑screen TVs, minibars, bathrobes and slippers, plus designer toiletries in the bathrooms.

Wake up to sunlit balcony mornings and enjoy a fitness center and gym, terrace and garden spaces, a library, hair salon, bar, restaurant and casual cafe. On‑site parking, laundry/dry cleaning, concierge and a tour desk make stays easy. Complimentary wireless internet is available throughout the property.

About 6,000–7,000 sq ft of flexible indoor/outdoor meeting and event space, plus a 24‑hour business center, limo/town‑car service, express check‑out and extended parking. Complimentary wireless internet supports meetings and remote work.

On‑site dining includes an Italian restaurant with a bar/lounge, an intimate tapas bar and a breakfast eatery adjacent to the solarium. Full breakfasts are served daily (fee applies) and 24‑hour room service is available.
