We stayed here to go to Universal Studios, and it was perfect. A 12-minute uber to the park was convenient, and the price matched how much time we spent in our room. It’s clean, the staff are very friendly, and it has everything you need. There are a couple restaurants nearby, but it’s limited. The one in the hotel is 21 , which isn’t great for families. I would definitely stay there again, although I did miss having in-room coffee to start my day.

Definitely recommend this hotel. First time staying in the area and it was raining so not much walking. The old charm the hotel has takes one back to simpler times. We stayed with a newborn and not one worry about staying there.

Very Good Value

The hotel is like going back in time but with the modernities of the present. Small elevator to one of three floors of the hotel. Pleasant sized rooms with everything you need, including a refrigerator. Very nice restaurant next door with coffee shop/bakery two stores down. A few other restaurants very close. Buses all over the place. Neighborhood seems safe but busy. Very good value.

Had a fantastic time at the Historic Hollywood Hotel. Staff is so so nice, welcoming and friendly. Front desk manager was funny and helpful with information. Really loved the café and restaurant that occupy the building. A little on the expensive side but worth the money. Rooms were comfortable and the hotel is charming. I would stay again.

Beautiful old hotel. Good parking except it was $18/night. The Edmon restaurant was excellent as was the pastry shop on the corner. Michael at the front desk was terrific-very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful with questions about touring Hollywood. The room was very clean and comfortable but needed a nightstand on both sides of the bed and a counter in the bathroom (only a pedestal sink. Overall, it’s a lovely old hotel
