Such a cool vintage gem of a hotel. Very peaceful with ponds and lush greenery. Our suite was fantastic, parking was free and easy as well. We enjoyed poolside breakfast which was fantastic and then some of their famous dinner. All the staff were super friendly and professional. We stayed two nights while shopping and attending a sports event at Stanford. Highly recommended

I love Dinah’s Garden Hotel!!! Beautiful artful clean comfortable room, bed and couch. We were entertained by the cutest ducks in a beautiful pond surrounded by Asian gardens right outside our patio door. I wanted to move in and never leave.
