Chateau Marmont
Staying at Chateau Marmont feels like stepping into a timeless Hollywood dream. Every room is uniquely designed with vintage charm and artistic flair—no two are alike, which makes each visit feel fresh and special. My favorite part? The private poolside cottages, offering ultimate privacy and serenity. It's such a peaceful retreat just minutes from the buzz of downtown LA. The location is perfect for exploring the city, and the ambiance is unmatched. I've stayed here multiple times, and it never fails to impress. If you're looking for an unforgettable escape with style and soul, this is the place.

Everywhere you go, there are restaurants, shops, and supermarkets nearby, making it super convenient for both sightseeing and daily needs. The hotel itself is spotless, with a clean and modern vibe throughout. Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile to make sure guests felt comfortable.

Hotel Sofitel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight! The location is unbeatable—right across from a grocery store, just a short walk to a fantastic Japanese grill, and only a block away from some great shopping spots. Getting to Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Universal Studios, and Griffith Observatory is so easy—whether by car or public transit, everything is within reach.

One of the best in all of Los Angeles—perfect for a relaxing evening drink with a view. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of convenience, luxury, and hospitality. I’ll definitely be back.
The Godfrey Hotel Hollywood
The room was spotless and had a cool, modern vibe that made the stay really enjoyable. The neighborhood felt safe—no homeless people around, which was a big plus for me. I only had one day in Los Angeles before heading to Santa Monica. Unfortunately, taxi rides to the airport or Santa Monica cost $50–$70 each way, which felt way too expensive for such short trips. If I’m back, I’ll definitely look into alternative transportation options. Still, the hotel itself was excellent—great cleanliness, stylish design, and friendly staff. It’s definitely a place I’d consider staying again if I ever return to LA.
Sheraton Universal
This was my third stay at the Sheraton Universal Hotel, and it didn’t disappoint—everything is still top-notch. Check-in was smooth and efficient, and a gentleman named Mr. Li who speaks Chinese helped me out with great care and professionalism. The location couldn’t be better—just a 15-minute walk to Universal Studios, or you can hop on the complimentary shuttle right outside the hotel entrance for a direct ride to the park gate. Saves so much time and energy! The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained. Free coffee and tea were available, plus two bottles of water daily—very thoughtful. While the toiletries (toothbrush, toothpaste, slippers) weren’t left in the room, they’re high quality and delivered promptly when requested via phone. The ground-floor buffet breakfast was excellent—lots of fresh options including oatmeal, eggs, bread, bacon, beef patties, milk, and coffee. It’s all delicious and well-prepared, especially for $34 per person. We stayed for three days during a family trip, and the kids had a blast. The only minor issue? On the first day, we never put up the "Do Not Disturb" sign, but housekeeping never came by. The trash bin was overflowing, and I had to go down to front desk to request someone to take it out. That said, this was an isolated case. Overall, the service, cleanliness, and convenience are outstanding. I’ll definitely book here again next time I visit Universal Studios.
Silver Lake Pool & Inn
Staying at Silver Lake Pool & Inn was an absolute delight from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by a charming atmosphere—cute, stylish decor with a modern yet cozy vibe. The outdoor space is a real gem: lush greenery, shaded seating areas, and a refreshing pool perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. I especially loved the breakfast—fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared with local touches. The location is ideal too—just a short walk from trendy cafes and shops in Silver Lake, and super easy to get around via public transit. It’s rare to find such a peaceful retreat with so much character and comfort. I’d happily come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, relaxing stay in Los Angeles.

The room was spotless, modern, and very comfortable, with great lighting and quiet surroundings that made for a restful night's sleep. What really stood out was the staff—they were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help, whether it was giving local tips or assisting with bookings. Their warm hospitality made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. If you're looking for a stylish, convenient, and well-run hotel in Los Angeles, Cara is a top choice. I’d definitely stay here again.

Stayed at Magic Castle Hotel for two nights to catch a Dodgers game and visit Universal Studios. The location was perfect—just a 5-minute walk from the nearest subway station, making everything super convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, instantly putting me at ease. I especially appreciated the complimentary coffee and soft drinks available throughout the day—great for travelers on the go. While I was traveling solo, I noticed many families staying here too, so it’s clearly a great choice for all kinds of guests. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-designed with thoughtful touches. Overall, the experience exceeded my expectations. From the warm hospitality to the excellent location, this hotel is a hidden gem in Los Angeles. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
Hampton Inn & Suites Los Angeles/Hollywood
Staying at the Hampton Inn & Suites Los Angeles/Hollywood was a fantastic experience overall. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from major Hollywood attractions, making sightseeing and dining super convenient. The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The bedding was comfortable, and the overall hygiene was excellent—no complaints there. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, adding a personal touch that made us feel welcome.

Samesun Hollywood
Staying at Samesun Hollywood was an absolute delight! The location is unbeatable—right on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame, just steps from the subway station. Getting around Los Angeles was super easy, and I loved how clean and well-maintained the hostel was. The shared kitchen is fully equipped, making it perfect for preparing meals on a budget. Breakfast was a nice bonus—fresh bread, fruit, and coffee were provided (no milk or eggs, but still a great start to the day). Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for travelers who want comfort, convenience, and value. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Hollywood!
Hollywood Celebrity Hotel
Staying at Hollywood Celebrity Hotel was an absolutely fantastic experience overall. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to Hollywood landmarks and easily accessible via public transit, making it convenient for exploring the city. The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained with modern amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept like a baby. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly service—always smiling, helpful, and attentive without being intrusive. The only minor downside was breakfast: there was no meat served at all, which was a bit disappointing since I was hoping for a protein-rich start to the day. However, the rest of the meal was decent, and considering everything else—the vibe, the convenience, and the value—it’s still a top pick. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Los Angeles.
Hollywood Inn Express South
I stayed at this hotel and found it to be a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers. The location is convenient—just a short subway ride from downtown LA, and there are plenty of dining options nearby, including late-night street food spots. That said, I’d recommend being cautious if you're out later in the evening, as the area can feel a bit quiet and less safe after dark. Inside the hotel, everything was clean and well-maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room had all the basics you'd need—good bedding, working AC, and reliable Wi-Fi. It’s not fancy, but for the price, it offers great value. If you’re careful with your timing and keep an eye on your surroundings, it’s definitely a comfortable base for exploring Los Angeles without breaking the bank.
