We checked in at the Magic Castle Hotel and were given to glass of sparkling lemonade as a welcome to the hotel. We were given a map of the property and of hollywood blvd, along with a key to the pool area. We also were given the snack list which was great. The snack list included over 30 different chips, candy bars, and drinks. We did use the shuttle service at night, but walked down... More

This place is really cool. We arrived so early they were still serving breakfast. Not a problem they had a room ready and then invited us to brekkie. In fact I remarked to them that in all our travels the check-in reception we got was just about the best ever.The rooms are up the hill from reception and they shuttle you up in a car. Unfortunately the rooms are ageing but this I guess is... More

We stayed for one night on our way over to the UK and were very happy with this hotel. It was a bit hard to find because the address on our email booking confimation was unclear, so the airport shuttle driver mistakenly dropped us at the top of the hill - but a very obliging staff member quickly organized for a hotel shuttle to take us (and our luggage) back down to the hotel reception...

The hotel staff are fantastic for this place. It's a bit of an odd set up but it really doesn't matter. You check in at the Magic Castle Hotel at the bottom of the hill (which being ranked 2 of 295 on Tripadvisor should give you a good idea what to expect), and then the free shuttle will take you and your bags up the hill to the Hollywood Hills Hotel. It looks more like... More

I booked this hotel through Orbitz because the hotel's own website showed no availability, but Orbitz still had rooms. I reserved a 1 bedroom suite, which was supposed to have a separate bedroom with a king size bed, plus a living room with a queen size sofa bed and kitchen. When we got to our room, it was just a basic hotel room with one king bed and a small kitchen. I called down to... More

The wife and I were in town to see a few concerts on the Sunset Strip. Based on Trip Advisor reviews, we decided to try the Hollywood Hills Hotel for the central location and spectacular view of Hollywood/L.A. I've stayed in fancier hotels from New York to San Francisco, but the service and friendliness here truly exceeded our expectations. The service was 5 Star!!! Every little detail from the shuttle service to the snacks to... More

After living in LA for many years, I have often found that it's hard to find a great hotel to recommend to friends/visitors that is under $200/night. But finally, this is the place! At the last minute, we needed a place to stay in Hollywood near our apartment for one night. I called The Magic Castle (another GREAT place to stay in Hollywood) but they were booked and suggested their sister hotel, this one. And... More

Older property but comfortable enough. Little apartment with small full kitchen, living room and large bedroom. Check in at the Magic Castle, down the hill. Great staff, continental breakfast, secure parking, dvd loan, snacks and a chance to visit the Magic Castle Club next door - very fun!! Very close to Hollywood Blvd and all the activities there.
