  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Beautiful hotel

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Rooms are clean but showing their age. Worth a stay if you can get a good deal, but not worth full price.

    The reviews of this place were decent & the front desk gentleman was sweet & helpful when I called to notify them that our daughter would be checking in late/possibly after midnight. Unfortunatley, after just a few hours sleep - she was trying to get ready to depart early AM, and the electric was not working anywhere in the guest room. She flipped all the switches in every room, hit the re-set buttons where visible, but all lights were out & she couldn't plug in to do her hair (and she needed to walk into a professional 'set'). She couldn't rouse anyone at the front desk to help her. She travels to LA often, and works in this area often. We will likely give this hotel another try, bc it was cute & so convenient (and she said she slept surprisingly well, given that the pillows were super small - smaller than standard pillows!) Thx, L.

    This hotel is a true gem! We felt like a piece of old Hollywood glamour has been preserved. It has been sympathetically updated, making it comfortable, yet retaining the charm of yesteryear. The Edmon bar is a must-experience part of the hotel. The art-deco interior is delightful. The bartenders are professional and passionate in their mixology. Take advantage of Happy Hour for best prices. The reception staff are great with recommendations. Take our advice and leave your vehicle parked—use taxi or Uber to get where you need to go. We even braved the transit system to get to Santa Monica!

    Note - if with children, can’t enter the bar/restaurant or even the outdoor dining area which was annoying

    We stayed on a Friday night for a concert at the Greek. I would stay here again. We especially loved the happy hour menu at the The Edmon Bar and Kitchen. The staff was super nice and the food and drinks were fantastic. The room was very clean and we slept great.

    Great hotel and staff. Location was a problem as you can’t walk anywhere

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Extremely clean. Room cleaned to a great standard. Have to get an Uber everywhere as LA is huge. Adjoining bar/restaurant was lovely

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Nice hotel, with good comfortable room. The in room amenities were basic, e.g. no tea/coffee facilities

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Quarto espaçoso e cama confortável, limpeza diária. É um hotel antigo mas acolhedor e bonito, tem elevador. Bom que tem estacionamento fácil de parar, é pago. Foi uma estadia agradável e deu para aproveitar bastante a cidade de Los Angeles!

    The staff was very helpful and easy going. The hotel is old and smelly. If your room is facing the street you will hear the cars and street noise from 4 am to 1 am of the next day. Very bad noise isolation. The hotel location is advertised as in Hollwyood which geografically it is but don't get fooled, it is in a corner of Hollwyood far from most of the attractions that Hollwyood has to offer. On the plus side, there is a bar and a restaurant in the first floor, a coffe/bakery shop and some other nice restaurants in walking distance. The area does not feel very safe walking after dark. Paramount Studios are also in walking distance.

    Loved staying here. Could see the Hollywood sign from the window. Convenient location and low cost to park for a few days. Was able to walk to the Palladium where we were seeing a show. Would have liked to have checked out the restaurant/bar but couldn’t as I had my 17 yo with me (it’s 21 and over). Very charming though.
