Venues & Event Spaces in Redwood City, CA

“Nice place to spend time before a movie or lunch. Love the stain glass dome of the building. Wish they had more photos of the Japanese internment camp. Since I have relatives that spent time in one during the war. But the exhibits on the History of San Mateo county were nice. Maverick's display could use an updated video. But I did learn a few things.”

“This military veterans bar is open to the public. Below average drink prices here. Big hall and and kitchen available to have your next event. Great management and bartender. Friday night karaoke from 8 pm-1 am.”

“Terrific staff at a very fun movie theater! The staff are so kind and went out of their way to help us with a ticket problem ? Great audio, HUGE screens, and lots of happy people out having a great movie time ? Recommend checking out their Movie Club deal. Best theater in the peninsula!”

“I went into this place bummed they didn’t have a pool and how small and narrow the hallways were, but I left surprised and satisfied. First, the parking was awesome. They didn’t charge or require a card, and there were always enough spots. The front desk person was very kind. The floor I stayed on had a nice breakfast every day, and it was always well stocked and peaceful with a TV with the news and enough seating. The servers were very kind. The room was very nice with enough space between two beds and a nice TV, fridge, desk, and chair. The bathroom was very upscale too with great water pressure and temperatures. At the end of the day, this was as nice as an express can be and worth a stay and centrally located to my conference and other dining places and stores and freeways. Thanks Holiday Inn Express.”

“Grand Bay San Francisco is the best hidden gem hotel in California — peaceful, beautiful, surprisingly affordable, and truly special.

For the Bay Area, it is almost unbelievable to find a hotel this nice at such a reasonable price. The property is gorgeous and serene, the rooms are comfortable, food is always delicious, and the whole setting feels like a quiet little escape. Walking around the lagoon is one of our family’s favorite traditions, and every stay feels relaxing, meaningful, and memorable.

What really sets Grand Bay apart, though, is the people. Everyone who works here goes above and beyond. The service is warm, thoughtful, and genuinely personal . Kristin is beyond wonderful and has such a gift for making special moments feel even more special. She is kind, attentive, and truly exceptional — always going the extra mile (or ten).

The hotel has also become even more perfect under Paul Wilson’s leadership. You can feel the care and pride in the way the property is run. It still has the familiar warmth that made us fall in love with it years ago, but it feels even more polished and cared for now.

Our family has stayed at many incredible hotels, but Grand Bay is still our happy place and by far our favorite hotel in the Bay Area. It is elegant, peaceful, welcoming, and such an incredible value. I cannot recommend it highly enough.”

“To the woman who checked us in, thanks so much for your warm and welcoming service. This Courtyard is superb. It looks new and modern. We love our clean and spacious suite as well. Thanks for a terrific stay!! We will be back soon.”
