I am always skeptical of negative hotel reviews, and glad I was! Stayed 2 nights Saturday to Monday for $429, a little higher than I'd like to spend on a hotel, but reasonable given the location. Staff was friendly all around. PROS: -Awesome, retro-modern decor in the common areas and room design. -Pool area is Palm Springs retro chic, lovely! -Rooms are smaller, but well designed, efficient, and clean. -Bed was comfy and slept well since we got a quiet room in the back of the hotel away from Sunset Blvd. -Secure underground parking garage, great for LA! I think it was supposed to be $35/night for parking, but I didn't get charged. -Central location walking distance to Hollywood Blvd, restaurants, bars. Bossa Nova is delicious and reasonably priced! CONS: -Smaller rooms -Local area is normal for LA, but some out of towners might be a bit fearful of the sight of culture, people of color, lower income folks, stylistic hipsters, and the working class. But if you're anywhere near an In N Out, Starbucks, and Chick Fil A, you know you're in a pretty safe neighborhood overall, like this one. Will definitely stay here ago someday!

Great hotel in a good location. Nice pool area. The bar was closed on our first day there due to lack of staff. The rooms are fairly small, they were clean and comfortable. The sink is in the bedroom not the bathroom, which is an issue during the night if you need to use the restroom as it disturbs the other person in the room.

The Palihotel Hollywood was excellent in every way. It has a serene and "retro" ambience with attention to detail and comfort. The lobby, courtyard pool area, bar and breakfast area were inviting. The staff is very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Our room was large and well-appointed, and the beds were so comfortable. It is also very quiet.We enjoyed our stay and will absolutely return next year!

The staff is amazing and so responsive at this hotel. The location is a bit awkward and inconvenient with the drive up to the hotel. However we loved the parking garage under the hotel. Hotel was clean for the most part, housekeeping came daily and did great. However the walls are thin and you can hear any noises from upstairs. Also would be nice if they had a hot tub but the pool was lovely. Would love to check out the other hotels they have.
