Downtown Redwood City blends Silicon Valley hustle with historic charm around the majestic 1910 County Courthouse, now a fascinating history museum. The restored Fox Theatre's vintage marquee glows against modern office buildings while Courthouse Square hosts lively farmers markets and concerts. Tech companies and startups create a buzzing business atmosphere perfect for travelers interested in the innovation landscape.
Diverse dining options range from upscale farm-to-table spots to casual ethnic eateries with strong Mexican, Italian, and Asian influences. Most hotels cater to business travelers with tech-forward amenities. Getting around is easy with the Caltrain station providing direct access to San Francisco and San Jose, plus the area is wonderfully walkable.
Redwood Shores offers a peaceful escape with miles of waterfront trails wrapping around scenic lagoons and San Francisco Bay views. The Oracle campus shows off cool public art while birds swoop overhead along the Bay Trail. You can spend your days strolling boardwalks, watching boats glide by, or catching a sunset from one of the viewing platforms that dot the shoreline.
Dining options cluster near the Oracle campus with California cuisine that won't disappoint. Hotels cater mostly to business travelers but offer comfy spots to crash after exploring the area. You'll definitely want a car here—public transit is limited, but the trade-off is plenty of free parking and uncrowded walking paths.
Woodside offers a tranquil escape where towering redwoods frame multi-million dollar estates and horse trails wind through lush landscapes. The Santa Cruz Mountains provide a stunning backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts hiking through Huddart Park or Edgewood Preserve. Filoli Historic House showcases Georgian Revival architecture with 16 acres of formal gardens that change with the seasons.
Getting around requires a car, as public transit is limited in this affluent community. The Village Hub features upscale farm-to-table restaurants where tech executives and celebrities often dine. For overnight stays, expect boutique B&Bs and luxury vacation rentals nestled among the trees.
Staumbaugh Heller is the quiet, tree-lined retreat you've been looking for in the pricey Silicon Valley area. This residential pocket of Redwood City trades tourist buzz for authentic suburban charm. Take morning strolls on wide sidewalks past mid-century homes, or use this peaceful base to explore nearby attractions like Fox Theatre and Hiller Aviation Museum.
Getting around requires wheels—either your own car or ride-sharing services, as public transit is limited here. Most travelers choose vacation rentals or B&Bs in family homes, enjoying the perks of full kitchens and free parking. While dining options are sparse within the neighborhood, downtown Redwood City is just a quick drive away.
North Fair Oaks serves up authentic Latino culture in the heart of Silicon Valley, without the touristy price tag. Grab some incredible tacos from family-run spots, browse mercados full of Mexican goods, or catch weekend barbacoa specials. The neighborhood hums with community life and Spanish conversations while colorful single-story homes line the streets.

I love visiting Redwood City because it is very diverse, lovely, great bars/dancing and yummy restaurants. The parking can be a challenge more than San Francisco.

Much cheaper than staying in San Francisco, and far more affordable! Safer as well! Highly recommended. Very convenient to go to Caltrain and go to the city.

Redwood City itself seems like a decent place, for the amount of time we stayed and what we saw. It feels like an older town but has a lot of the amenities that one would be looking for (gas, food, some shopping). Not horrible.

This was on the Atherton edge of Redwood City. We walked on the Redwood City side of the hotel. It was safe, but got less nice the further north we went. Going south into Atherton is probably a better bet.

I was born and raised in Redwood City. It's definitely not the same quaint town I grew up in, but it's still nice. Great restaurants downtown within walking distance from the hotel.
