Dogs & Nude Art--No Thanks

I wish I'd known this was a "pet-friendly" hotel prior to booking--and I would have stayed elsewhere. The first room we were given smelled so bad of pet urine we couldn't stand it. The second room was better, but not great. The nude "art" throughout the room (paintings, lamp bases, etc.) gave the place just the right Hollywood trash look. I'll never stay here again.

Great location for my movie review.

My magazine, The Eerie Digest, reviewed the Red Carpet event for a film showing only blocks away. I will use the hotel again. I would love to have the hotel, and [...], as our sponsors to get this word out !

Business Stay

Valet parking people were very personable, the front desk staff were great. The rooms were very nice with big HD flat screen t.v. For the guys or ? The Valet attendant and front deck personal were drop dead beautiful ladies. Great view of the coast line from the 9th flr room.

It's Definitely LA

Had to taxi to Century City and to Hollywood and to just about everywhere. Will stay closer to the main sites next time. The hotel is nice, the restuarant is OK - very expensive for what you get though. The decor includes very subdued lighting throughout the facility. Staff were nice. Rooms are nice enough but not spectacular or memorable.

The Polomar is LA's Best. Period.

The Palomar Staff made me feel like I was their most important guest. AND they did it all while smiling. The hotel is, naturally, beautiful since it is a Kimpton. Rooms are spacious and clean, beds are among the best and most restful. The staff was definitely having a good weekend while I was there. Front desk, restaurant, valet, in room service-they all were friendly and affable. From now on, the only place I'll stay is the Palomar when traveling to LA.

we stayed at the Palomar because we were in town for a wedding in that neighborhood. This one is lovely, original and allows dogs. Free wine and snacks in the evening.
