Graduate Palo Alto

A New Way To Stay In Palo Alto

Rekindle the spirit of your alma mater at the smartest place to stay in Palo Alto. Nestled on University Ave in the heart of downtown, Graduate Palo Alto is steps from charming shops and restaurants, and down the street from Stanford University’s stunning campus.

Originally built in 1929, we’ve completely restored the historic Hotel President to reflect and honor its Spanish-colonial roots. Our lobby, guest rooms and rooftop bar celebrate the region’s unique terrain, while antique art and furniture give all spaces an authentically NorCal feel. From hand-painted redwood wallpaper to custom art depicting university traditions, we’ve got Stanford pride in spades.

Visit our lively lobby café, Lou and Herbert’s, for light bites or a quick caffeine boost. And you definitely don’t want to miss the sweeping views from our rooftop bar, President’s Terrace — the only place of its kind in Palo Alto.

And since we love all things local, we teamed up with nearby fitness studios, Rumble Boxing and Yogasource, to provide special drop-in class rates to hotel guests. The best part? Both spots are less than a 10-minute walk away, so you can work up a sweat without venturing too far.

So whether you’re in town rallying for a Cardinal win, visiting campus or exploring downtown, we’re here to make your stay memorable. Our warm, friendly and whip-smart staff will guide you around Palo Alto so you feel like a local even if it’s your first time in town.

Welcome to Graduate Palo Alto.
