Nobu Hotel Palo Alto

The hotel kinda smells like sushi fish.... cuz the restaurant is right at the ground floor. I could still smell it in the halls. The design/decor is nice but very plain. The shower had a floor with a weird design which won't dry that well and probably prone to mold. Overall it was fine but I would prob stay somewhere else for the price

Great location, nice breakfast in a beautiful garden

The shower handle was very inconvenient. That was very clean, but you know nothing special pretty kind. Staff thought it was great, but not sure if I’ll necessarily come back.

Bed and pillows were not comfortable at all. Room was too hot. Shower pressure was low and water was always luke warm, could never get it comfortably hot

Good location , Priya does a great job Terrible noise at night from HVAC , couldn’t sleep well at all . Housekeeping is not sincere about replanting bathroom supplies or even 2 water bottles every day . I had to call and ask reception every day later in the day

Rooms are excellent in terms of cleanliness, contemporary and minimalistic decor, and technologically advanced lighting/toilet/TV. Fitness gym has Peloton, weights, and high-end treadmills. Nobu restaurant is high on taste. Worth the high expense!

Nobu is the best hotel I’ve experienced in the Bay Area and is my go to for work travel.

The hotel is clean, well-designed, and has a calm, refined atmosphere. Rooms are comfortable with a nice Japanese-inspired minimalism, and the subtle scent throughout adds to the experience. Service, however, was inconsistent. Staff were polite, but follow-through was lacking. I requested dishes be cleared from my room multiple times even in person and they remained for over 24 hours. It felt like a gap in execution rather than intent. The restaurant was mixed. The miso cod was well done, but other dishes, like a trout I ordered, were overly oily. Service there also didn’t match the level you’d expect. Breakfast was decent but slightly inconvenient, requiring a short walk outside, and the large communal tables felt oversized for solo dining. Overall, it’s a solid hotel with strong design, but it falls short of the consistency and refinement expected from a truly high-end stay.

Clean,great customer service Window view wasn’t pleasant

Huge shoutout to Josue for helping us secure both the room and our dinner reservation — he made the whole process effortless. And Chef Charlie at the chef’s counter was incredible. His food recommendations were spot on and truly elevated the entire dining experience. The staff was friendly and attentive, the room was cozy and comfortable, and the amenities were great. We celebrated our anniversary here and couldn’t have picked a better place. Thank you to the whole team for making it such a memorable stay. We’ll definitely be back.

The service was just okay. Two room service orders took well over an hour to arrive (and if that's the case, fine, but don't say it will be up within 35-45 minutes) and a request for just a fork took nearly as long (I had brought some noodles back to my room but they were cold by the time the fork arrived). Only two bottles of complimentary water and no easy place to refill them seems cheap for a $1000 a night hotel room (and not replaced daily either). Shower had lame water pressure.
