Kristina at the Sheraton Palo Alto is fabulous to work with. The venue is stunning and the food is great. Everyone who attended our wedding had great things to say! The bride and bridesmaids stayed in a suite the night before the wedding and it was great place to get ready for the big day!

We had our reception at Sheraton Palo Alto. The catering manager Kristina Tobin is a bless for our wedding! She is very kind and thoughtful, as well as very responsive and thorough on the wedding planning. During the wedding preparation she helped us customize the wedding package to fit our needs. On the wedding day she also helped us resolve the crisis quickly. I think the service is exceptional. Thank you
SO MUCH Kristina!

Oh, and the food is excellent too, especially the vegetarian ravioli. I am not a vegetarian but had to order it since it tastes so good.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
