About the Hotel
The hotel is located 30 miles south of San Francisco in the heart of Silicon Valley. Shuttle transportation is available from SF and San Jose airports for approximately $30
Palo Alto, the city known as "The Birthplace of Silicon Valley", is 35 miles south of San Francisco and 14 miles north of San José in Northern California. Located within Santa Clara County and bordering San Mateo County, the city's boundaries extend from San Francisco Bay to the coastal mountains, with Menlo Park to the north and Mountain View to the south.
Crowne Plaza Cabaña Palo Alto is ideally located for visitors to explore the city's broad range of attractions, and is close to Half Moon Bay, Santa Cruz and Napa Valley. Easily accessible by car or shuttle service from three international airports, the hotel is 13 miles from San José Airport, 24 miles from San Francisco Airport and 32 miles from Oakland Airport. Stanford University is only a ten-minute drive from the hotel.
Just 30 minutes' drive away is all that San Francisco has to offer, including the magnificent Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Zoo, the notorious Alcatraz, and shopping in Union Square.
A unique blend of old and new, Palo Alto boasts a wealth of historical buildings and attractive tree-lined avenues. In direct contrast, hi-tech companies such as Hewlett Packard and Sun Microsystems have chosen Palo Alto for their headquarters, making the city a leader in cutting-edge technological development. Palo Alto's extraordinarily diverse character, well represented at its Museum of American Heritage, makes this an ideal destination for the business and leisure traveler alike.
