Everything and everyone was great! I had my family over from New Zealand and I wanted them to have a luxurious experience and Crowne Plaza Foster City did just that! From the clean rooms, great receptionists. breakfast buffet, club and smiles all day! You do not need to go anywhere else. If I can I would give them 10 stars.
