Most recent user reviewsScore 5 out of 5 Great amenities, clean rooms, smooth check-in Anonymous, Philadelphia, PA, 2007-02-18 Mostly all of the good clubs and bars are in Hollywood and the hotel is literally a short drive away from all the action.The Wilshire Grand hotel is over all very comfortable. We valeted our car overnight at the hotel and they gave us a ticket for in and out access for our car. They were very quick in getting our car for us whenver we needed it. The pool was nice, but there were small children in the hot tub and pool. The free wireless internet access was a great benefit and connecting to their wireless network was seemless. The hotel is literally 1 block from the 101 freeway (takes 10-15mins to get to hollywood). Score 4 out of 5 Rooms need a good cleaning Anonymous, Chicago, IL, 2007-02-14 The first room we received at check in was dirty (real Dirty) so we asked to be switched the staff was very accommodating and gave us a different room The choices for dinner at the Hotel were excellent Cardini's was so good we ate there twice Score 5 out of 5 Excellent place JUAN, 2007-02-14 Plenty of stores and restaurants are in walking distance.Everything was wonderful, the staff was great.

Score 4 out of 5 My review of Wilshire Grand Hotel Charles, Hartford, CT, 2006-10-02 Good Dining in Hotel especially Japanese but not open on week-end???Good hotel with high parking fee. Stayed 6 nights without an offer to upgrade the room. Needs much better wireless internet service and more power outlets in the room. TV very small and poor quality. Bathrooms need upgrading. Score 1 out of 5 Good location, accomodating staff BARBARA, Modesto, CA, 2006-09-05 There was a coffee shop closeI stayed three nights and the first night was very bad. The water pipes from the next room sounded like the place was going to fall in, the walls were paper thin and I heard very clearly the people's conversation in the next room to the early hours. there was a dirty water bottle left from previous people, only "2" glasses. Requested a new room the same night and was told it would be changed the next day. Arrangements were made to be changed while I was out and the personal luggage etc would be in new room when I returned, however, it was not and it was 10 or 11 pm when I returned. Adjustment was to be made but four days later and I have heard nothing. Bathroom was very small. I would return but not at the price I paid. Score 2 out of 5 Wouldn't spend another night Anonymous, Philadelphia, PA, 2006-09-04 garnment & jewelry district are just a few blocks walking distance.The Wilshire Grand left much to be desired. I frequent LA 8-10 times a year and have stayed at many lower rated hotels that offered more luxurious accommodations. I was under the impression there had been some renovations to the rooms but they were outdated and ugly. The bed was not very comfortabe and there was no fridge or coffee in the room. The walls are paper thin and you can hear what is going on in the next room. The corridors need fresh paint and new carpet but at least it didn't smell. Parking costs are excessive $30/night- and you don't find out about it til you check in. The weekend brunch buffet in the City Cafe was good. Score 1 out of 5 Seedy robert, Boston, MA, 2006-07-26 The Wilshire Grade has become seedy. The carpets in the room are stained and threadbare. The weather in LA was close to 100 degrees but the air conditioning in the room never worked at all, despite repeated requests to the front desk to fix it. They kept saying they would send someone to fix it, but never did. My business associates who stayed that the hotel also had similar experiences. Because the windows don't open, the room was absolutely stifling. The bed was hard as a rock and the sheets and comforter were cheap and seemed dirty. The carper was stained and in bad condition, so much so that I didn't want to walk on it in my bare feet. The bathroom was dated, especially the shower fixtures which were badly in need of maintenance. Score 2 out of 5 Poor Value Anonymous, 2006-05-17 The little sports bar was okayThe Wilshire Grand Hotel was way overpriced . The rooms were large but had there was nothing in them. A couple of table lamps, uncomfortable chair and small uncomfortable beds. Also a little TV with a remote that didn't work. The bathroom was even smaller. I'm not sure how old the hotel is but it though it was clean, it seemed old and little money was used to update or refurbish it. It also cost $30 dollars to park our car at the hotel, extra on top of an overpriced room. I think this was definitely a hotel for those visiting on business in the downtown area ONLY. There wasn't anything nearby as far as restaurants, entertainment, shopping, not in walking distance anyway. So no point in staying there. The amenities weren't too inviting or family friendly. I would not recommend this to anyone of my friends or family, in fact I would tell them to definitely not waste their money. |
