Outstanding Service
Nicolette Chan is an exceptional catering sales manager. I have contacted over 30 venues for my event with 100 guests. Nicolette is by far the most responsive and organized person. Her attention to detail and the timely completion of the quotes and contract were truly commendable. Nicolette provided helpful advice and suggestions regarding the event space and catering. She let me know all the important information regarding the room, food and beverage.
My mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I came to see the space. Nicolette's expertise and dedication to delivering outstanding service impressed all us. She was extremely attentive and listened to all our concerns with a great deal of patience. She has a caring approach and she is a true professional. We chose Crowne Plaza Foster City for the party because of Nicolette. I highly recommend hosting your event at Crowne Plaza of Foster City.

Wedding Reception
We had the most amazing experience with the Crowne Plaza (worked mostly with Nicolette who was exceptional). We had our wedding reception in the Marco Polo room, Nicolette really helped us create just what we wanted within our budget. It turned out lovely, the staff was amazing on the day of but also so kind and accommodating every time I went in leading up to the event. The food was excellent (we did the fiesta buffet). Everybody loved it and it had options for any food sensitivities. Highly recommend. We had 85 people and it felt like plenty of space. 10/10 service.We had the most amazing experience with the Crowne Plaza (worked mostly with Nicolette who was exceptional).

Amazing experience
I am happy we chose the Crowne Plaza Foster City to host our wedding reception and serve as our guest hotel. They were very courteous, accommodating, generous, easy going, professional, and made us very comfortable and above all, flexible to all types of last minute requests. My guests have not stopped raving about the location, amenities, food and service.

Crowne Plaza Foster City
We booked a room block and had our honeymoon at Crowne Plaza Foster City and everything went really great! The staff was fantastic and the rooms were nice. After our wedding we had a great time at the Clubhouse Bistro with many of our guests. The music was good and it was a lot of fun. In the morning we ordered room service which was a great way to end our wedding night.We booked a room block and had our honeymoon at Crowne Plaza Foster City and everything went really great!

Perfect suite for our wedding
Our stay at the crowne plaza was perfect. The suite looked great for taking photos and videos. It was quiet at night unike many other hotels we have stayed in. All the staff were extremely helpful and kind to us. The breakfast in the morning was very good as well.Our stay at the crowne plaza was perfect. The suite looked great for taking photos and videos.

Kasia was great. She made planning our own wedding that much easier. She is very easy to talk with. After researching places for our wedding, she was the first one to contact me. I'm a firm believer in first impressions and I'm glad to shoose her site for our reception. The only thing I noticed that our table arrangements were not planned as we wanted them, but that was very minor since everybody moves from table to table anyway. Thank you Kasia for making our wedding reception great!!Kasia was great. She made planning our own wedding that much easier. She is very easy to talk with.

Great Service
Our experience at Crowne Plaza - Foster City Hotel was truly memorable! Planning our special day was made incredibly smooth and stress-free with their assistance. The team was attentive and accommodating, ensuring that every detail was taken care of flawlessly.
One of the highlights was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They were not only professional but also went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and special throughout the entire process. From our initial inquiries to the actual day of the wedding, their responsiveness and helpfulness was truly commendable.
While there were a few minor details that fell into the neutral category, such as some communication delays with certain arrangements, they did not detract from the overall wonderful experience we had. In the end, what truly mattered was the joy and love that surrounded us on our wedding day, and Crowne Plaza - Foster City Hotel played a significant role in making it all come together seamlessly.
We recommend Crowne Plaza - Foster City Hotel to any couple looking for a great venue in the Bay Area.Our experience at Crowne Plaza - Foster City Hotel was truly memorable!

The Uptown Ballroom is a small hidden venue in Sacramento, CA. From the outside, it doesn't look like much...but inside...is a whole different story. When I first began to work on my wedding, I wasn't happy with the service. But then a new Manager joined the team, Maria. And she is the BEST! She made my Reception stress-free from beginning to end. She was professional, courteous, compassionate, understanding...etc. etc. She took something that could have been a stressful event, and made it one of the funest weddings I've ever attended!! All of our guests had an amazing time. She also provided our catering, and the food was DELICIOUS! I would highly recommend Maria of the Uptown Ballroom in Sacramento any time. But only if Marie is there.The Uptown Ballroom is a small hidden venue in Sacramento, CA. From the outside, it doesn't look like much...but inside...is a whole different story.

Beautiful rooms - disorganized staff
Loved the rooms & our stay, but there were many hiccups in planning. We had to clarify and correct the guest head count numerous times. And the time change for our group breakfast was not communicated internally between staff which caused confusion on the day-of. We enjoyed the hotel's night club for our after-party. And the location was perfect for our shuttle service to/from our wedding venue.Loved the rooms & our stay, but there were many hiccups in planning.

Great experience!
My husband and I got married at the Crowne Plaza in March and overall everything turned out absolutely amazing. Planning a wedding can be stressful but Pamela and Reyna really helped make our day a day to remember. They both are so kind and will go out of there way for you. The day of the wedding, the service was beyond excellent and accommodating, the food was fantastic and plentiful, and the venue was beautiful and spacious. We had almost 300 people at our wedding which fits 3 of the 4 rooms of the hall, but Pamela was sweet enough to give us the 4th room so we can have a huge dance floor as well as having our guests feel more comfortable.
Areas for improvement- We booked the Crowne Plaza a year before our wedding and there was a lack of response up until a couple months before March. It all worked out in the end but me and my husband are planners so it made things a little difficult. Also day of the wedding, I was told my bridal suite would be ready by 9am and it wasn't until 11am.
All in all, our sincerest thanks to the Crowne Plaza staff.My husband and I got married at the Crowne Plaza in March and overall everything turned out absolutely amazing.

We used CP for our wedding reception. We worked with Kasia who was flexible with what we wanted. There was a lack of response at times and she forgot some details but me and the wedding coordinator I had stayed on top of things so that it ran pretty smoothly the night of. The food was pretty good - everyone loved the salmon, the chicken was a little dry for some but I think it's hard to cook for that many people. The veggie plate was good too. We did the wedding package and the cake was delicious and the florist that came with the package did a beautiful job. CP is a more affordable option in the bay area and they recently remodeled the hotel so everything looked super nice. The one tricky part was there was another event next to ours and the only time an issue came up was during the cocktail hour, some of them came over to our side and ate the food! The mother of the groom regulated that, but we were told it wouldn't be a problem - and it was. Overall, everyone and a great time and it ran smoothly, but there was some hiccups that could have been prevented.We used CP for our wedding reception.

There were a lot of hiccups and lack of response from the "catering manager" the year leading up to my wedding. The price was reasonable otherwise I would have chosen another venue. The ceremony rooms they have are quite outdated as well as their Marco Polo room. We had our ceremony then the hour cocktail service which wasn't set up as ready to go when my ceremony was over, so we had 60+ guests waiting around wondering what to do and bothering us while we tried to take our photos. They were unprofessional in this area, I also finally finished my photos close to the ed of the cocktail hour and was dying for a glass of wine to ease my nerves etc, was told no we are closed as I stood there in my wedding dress asking for ONE glass of wine! Thankfully one of my guests came to my rescue and helped me convince the bartender to get the bride a glass of wine. My "bridal suite" was far from one I was given the impression I talking about how great of a bridal suite was in the package I chose, I had high expectations! It was very small, unaccommodating for a bridal party of FOUR. There was a small bathroom, again not best for a bride getting her hair and makeup done there, not even a microwave in the room. I thought there would have been a large bathtub as well!
The packages were somewhat reasonable but the you end up getting charged a %20 service fee and 9.25% tax on EVERYTHING that it then becomes way more expensive than what you were originally sold on. I would suggest the CP foster city for a bride on a budget for sure but if you can afford more and expect a more classier wedding, and would like to be treated like a bride and groom I'd look elsewhere.There were a lot of hiccups and lack of response from the "catering manager" the year leading up to my wedding.
