Older property but well maintained. Room with King bed was spacious and clean. Window AC unit was fine. Small elevator but only 3 floors so no issues with that. Excellent attached restaurant with every day happy hour 4-7. Easy walk to Paramount Studios. Rear parking lot is a bit tight but no problems. Staff was friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing staycation

This was truly a hidden gem. I needed a quick staycation for the weekend before I moved into my new place and found this. It was so inexpensive. I was worried, but after looking at the reviews and the pictures and the price point of the restaurant and café, there was no way that it could be that bad……. And it wasn’t the property was beautifully remodeled staff was so kind and accommodating. Everyone I talked to was friendly and well-versed in service. From the front desk to Housekeeping to the restaurant, every person I have a person encountered was incredibly accommodating. I would definitely do a staycation again. Additionally will be enjoying that restaurant again. It was unbelievably fantastic. Not one thing that I ordered, would I not rave about. Extremely grateful for this weekend and the amazing service.

Hollywood Horror

Hotel has so much potential with its Hollywood theme but it was horrific. Had to check out early. Room smelled bad. Stains on carpet and curtains. No coffee making facilities. Only one bedside table. No convenient plug or USBC sockets. Tiny bathroom. Everything dated.

A wonderful piece of history. The hotel has been beautifully restored and has such a cool nostalgic feel. The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. Everything was very clean. Walls on the thinner side. Slept very well. It was a treat to stay here for two nights. Great staff! The restaurant and bar is a work of art! Recommended!

Really enjoyed my stay at the Hollywood Historic Hotel. Would absolutely stay there again. The bed was comfy, the staff was friendly and having off-street parking was wonderful. The closet where I had to keep my suit absolutely smelled of mildew, but that’s my only complaint.
