The Wilshire Grand

My friend and I were set up in a deluxe room ... two separate bathrooms, two separate closets. We loved it! It was nice not having to share a bathroom, and we could spread our beauty products out without having to worry about giving each other enough space. The room was spacious, with a nice sitting area, separate desk and vanity. The beds were comfortable and I applaud the Wilshire Grand's green plan ... a nice approach to conserving and protecting the environment.

A half block away from the 7+ Fig shopping center, where you'll find Macy's, a food court, and a newstand, among other shops. About 3/4 of a mile away from the Staples Center.

Very family friendly

The staff was very accomodating. At first, when we checked in to the hotel, the room was clean and nice but it was just a bit small for the three of us. I called the front desk and asked them if they had a slightly larger room and if so how much was the difference per night and explained to them that we were cramped with the three of us (particularly with the small bathroom) and they immediately moved us to a suite at no additional charge with two bathrooms! Unbelievable service at this hotel. The beds were very comfortable. The hotel was centrally located for all of our downtown needs. I would most surely recommend this hotel to anyone! In fact, my daughter goes to school in Orange and I would choose to drive the distance in order to stay here again. Since my stay at the Wilshire Grand I have stayed at a competetors hotel and my experience was far less satisfying! I will stay here again for sure! My entire family loved it.

Great hotel for location

I had an exceptional stay and property was conveniently located to all downtown attractions and across the street from the subway. Very affordable dining options for a hotel and great amenities such as the pool and fitness center.

Unbeatable location for the price!

The Wilshire Grand is located right in the heart of the business district. Very convenient to shopping(we went to the Garment District) Very close to the LA Dodger Stadium and walking distance to The Staples Center. The staff was very helpful and pleasant the room was very clean. I booked this hotel through the internet at a very economical price and I was very satisfied. Next time I will consider a bigger room as we were a little crowded with two kids.

If you go to the Garment District, be ready to haggle over the price before you pay. You can find anything you are looking for there. Be sure to check every item you are buying closely, since there is a no return policy. Schedule a full day to give yourself time to comparison shop. Very exhausting but fun.

A taste of paradise

My stay was flawless. I must admit, I didn't know what to expect, but that changed after I entered the hotel. The staff was great!! I've stayed in hotels all over the world and I've never had this type of service in a hotel in the States. Keep up the good work!!
