The best hotel experience I've ever had and I frequently travel for work and pleasure. Staff was so helpful. Property is gorgeous and has European vibes. Bed was comfy. Balcony was an excellent touch. Food was delicious. Conveniently located to everything DT Palo Alto has to offer. Board room. General use space. hard to top. Will definitely be back.

We’ve stayed at Prado 6-8x over last 2 years … and it remains our “ go to” in Palo Alto for 1-5 days stays. The rooms are lovely — nice linens, towels, good black out curtains etc - and service is awesome!

The property is a great boutique hotel. The rooms are large and very pretty and clean. We had a odd smell from the carpet cleaning going on in the hall that made the room smell a bit too. Seemed odd to do it on the weekend. Parking is expensive. The staff is super nice and very helpful. I'd stay here again for sure.

Super relaxing staycation. Loved the cozy robes and slippers. The service was great and the room is beautifully appointed. It reminded me of the Ritz Carlton. The bed was sorta comfortable, and the linens were soft. The room smelled slightly of cigarette smoke, but it wasn't bad enough to request a room change.

We selected this hotel because it was well-located, reasonably priced, and offered more charm than newer cookie-cutter hotels. We were not disappointed. The service was excellent, and our room had a fireplace, which was welcome on cold, rainy days.

Reserved deluxe king with fireplace, was told there were none available. Rather than give an upgrade, we received a downgrade to a lesser room, so I returned the keys and left, never to return.

The hotel is nice and comfortable but the hotel description on the Hotels.com site says there are bars/restaurants. There are NO bars or restaurants. I would not have booked this hotel if I had known that. Also the room service is not 24 hours.
