Services & Conveniences
The Creekside Inn is a smoke-free property with complimentary electric car charging stations and a 24-hour business center. The hotel provides three indoor meeting rooms with up to 1,400 square feet of space. The hotel provides ADA accessible guestrooms with visual fire alarms, hearing-impaired kits, and braille signage. Self-parking is available.
“The Creekside Inn positions itself as eco-friendly, which should signal a focus on conservation, though some experiences, like the need to run water extensively for heat, seem at odds with that promise; even so, the location near Stanford University provides undeniable access. While a grab-and-go breakfast lacks appeal, the outdoor pool and proximity to local dining add value for those exploring Palo Alto. Ultimately, it's a mixed bag.”
