Business or Pleasure a great location

The Holiday Inn was very clean, the room was good size and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location, right off the highway was great for us. It gave good access to both the business and recreation areas we required and desired. It provided good access to Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Holloywood, west LA, the coast (beaches) as well as medical facilities. Not having to pay for parking and breakfast was a definite plus. We would recommend this hotel to anyone visting the west LA area.

Excellent customer service from all staff

I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express West Los Angeles because it was near a location where I had an interview. The gentlemen at the front desk were all so helpful and courteous in providing me with information about the area. The hotel grounds are clean and the woman helping in the breakfast area was very helpful, especially early in the morning. I will definitely refer a friend to stay at the Holiday Inn Express West LA.

My five-day stay on your property was a very positive experience. I did not encounter any problems during my stay. As a matter of fact, I am trying to re-book for future stay. The location was excellent to my business as well as being convenient to the expressway. The breakfast was fresh and very tasty and I failed to miss a meal. Nothing can compare to the coffee that was served; it was super good!

Convenient to freeway....

The room was very comfortable and relaxing....the hotel was very close to the freeway exit and the on ramp so it was a good location......the exterior of the hotel was ok but again the room was great.....the location where the breakfast is served was a tiny tiny room but they offered a good start in terms of food. We were very close to the Westwood area which was the area we wanted to be close to..... All in all is was a pleasant stay the staff was fantastic......

good parking for LA

It was clean, fully stocked with shampoo,conditioner, soap and lotion. My son was able to get a razor from the desk clerk. No bellhop, so as a female, it's good to know that ahead of time. Very friendly staff. They serve a moderately good breakfast. THe beds, location and noise level were excellent. Cleaverly designed room to give you a curved bench next to the desk to eat or have beverages with friends. TV options were good with HBO included and games for the younger set. THe parking was underground and they were generous about it. My visitors could park there and not give them any info. I'd stay there again, but for having to smoke in the garage.

Good Service-Central West LA location

Friendly staff. Good inclusive breakfast. Free parking critical to me in an area where other hotels charge up to $25 dollars a day to park in their lots. Had Business in West Los Angeles. Ask for a room at the rear of the hotel if traffic noise is a concern since hotel is situated immediately next to freeway I-405 Santa Monica Boulevard. Clean stylish updated rooms. Free HBO, Sizeable Bathrooms.

Neat and efficient

I was in town for a brief visit for entertainment purposes, so the location was ideal...a hop on and off the freeway. The only problem was the noise from the heavy traffic. The room was impecable, bathroom was very clean, beds were surprisingly comfortable. Standards are well maintained at this location. Very nice layout of room and the decor was restful. I would definitely stay again at this location.

Great stay in West L.A.

The only complaint I had is that the fitted sheets on the bed were skimpy; every night the bottom sheet came untucked the instant I turned over in bed. I don't think I'm especially athletic in my sleep, so I think the problem is the skimpy sheets. Other than that, the hotel was great. Nice continental breakfast, comfy room, as advertised. Close to I-405 (maybe too close) and Santa Monica Boulevard, and handy for going places in L.A.

NuArt Theater very close--great for those obscure films you won't see other places! Check out Cafe 50's for great diner atmosphere.
