I stayed 3 nights at the Holiday Inn Express Redwood City for business. The hotel was close to my business destination and was a real surprise. The room and hotel area were very clean and comfortable and the staff very welcoming and friendly. The hotel is a good stopover for business in Redwood City

Although familiar with the brand, I was positively surprised by the quality of this place. The room was big, well furnished, extremely clean and with comfortable beds and bedding. The free breakfast was above average, the free WiFi was as good as in any hotel anywhere, and I can only recommend this place.

While in the area on business, stayed for 2 nights. No doubt the location on El Camino Real provides access to work and points of interest. Garage parking, a larger room then expected and a very comfortable night's sleep. Although there was a full breakfast, I wasnt able to stop and enjoy it, but it looked like other guests were... More

This is a very nice hotel. The room is clean and spacious. When we came to our room, there was a note for us from the hotel's manager wishing us a nice stay. The reception staff was very welcoming. Checking in took seconds and we were offered some water, cookies, and other snacks. I know that maybe some people are... More

There was everything I expected there to be - garage for parking, nice spacious room with a comfy bed and a selection of pillows, clean bathroom, air conditioning unit in the room (this was especially useful as the weather was somewhat cold during my stay). The room was pretty quiet, the loudest thing in it was the fridge, so eventually... More

Nice size room, great breakfast and comfortable bed & pillows. It was clean and quiet. No complaints.......if business (or pleasure) brings me back to this area again I would stay again. Just don't expect much in the way of 'extra's'....but if all you desire is a clean, comfortable, quiet room, this is your place.

The extremely helpful and pleasant staff was definitely a plus to the very clean room. The bed was very comfortable. I was very pleased with my stay and it is only a mile away from Kaiser hospital in Redwood City. The breakfast was very good, too - many choices including 3-4 hot entrees.

We needed to stay in this area (Stanford and Menlo Park) and was happy they had space available (many hotels did not.) It was clean, conveniently located on El Camino Real on the Atherton line, and provided everything you need for a brief stay. Traffic noise was not a problem. The staff was extremely welcoming and helpful; the breakfast was... More

Pricey for USD220. Breakfast has lots of "artificial" foods! The in room pop corn / snack package was a pleasant surprise! OK bed. Pricey for USD220. Breakfast has lots of "artificial" foods! The in room pop corn / snack package was a pleasant surprise! OK bed.
