My wife and I stayed here over the Memorial Day weekend. We booked a King Spa Suite because of a discounted rate through Kimpton Rewards. We live in Las Vegas, so we're accustomed to very good service, and we have absolutely no complaints about this hotel. The room was large, comfortable, and quiet. Our room was at the end of... More

This terrific hotel has good rates, if you manage to get one of their specials. The staff are all attentive and pleasant, the King Suites are very spacious and well-appointed, and the wine hour is always a treat. Located on Wilshire Blvd., my favorite traffic artery to get anywhere in LA, this hotel is a short drive to Santa Monica,... More

This hotel was really nice and modern. The staff were friendly and not stuck up, they were available if we needed them, offering advice on the area. It was not that close to the busy area's and restaurants we wanted but we stayed an extra night. So all good if you have a car or dont mind getting a taxi... More

Since our son is attending college nearby, we have been going to the Hotel Palomar since 2009. Every year when we come to visit him (this year we came out for my daughter's spring break), we choose the Palomar. Since we travel from the East Coast, it is always a pleasure to come to this hotel. The staff is always... More

It is my first time being to LA. We booked three 4-star hotel in different areas during our 5 days stay. Hotel Palomar is our first night designation and we are glad we choosed Hotel Palomar. Among all three, we rank hotel Palomar No.1 as overall impression. Nice clean room, comfort bed and excellent water pressure in the bathroom. Peaceful... More

This place is great. You can tell they try hard, and it shows. Personal touches like a non-automated wake up call system; a cheery voice greets you in the morning. Plenty of towels and washcloths. The room was very clean and quiet. Loved the wine hour, and the wine was actually quite delicious! The only thing that I would do... More

The Hotel Palomar is a green state of the art stay. Great room, (we went for a suite) and a fabulous bar/restaurant. (Warning: not for the timid of wallet!). Probably the best of the stay was the truly amazing staff at every turn, attentive and helpful and cheerful! We loved it and will look for their properties whereever we go.

The Palomar (Kimpton) is enigmatic. Some aspects of our stay were wonderful. Others, not so much. I hope Tripadvisor allows me to say this, so here goes: I got 2 weekend rooms on a certain name-your-own-price website and ended up at the Palomar. I had once stayed at the Muse in New York City (another Kimpton) and enjoyed that so... More

Dear Alan, Thank you for the valuable feedback and thank you for acknowledging our great staff! I am really sorry about the remnants of smokers in our non-smoking hotel; we should have done a better job removing the smell. I truly hope this has not changed your perception of the Palomar and I would love to have you return for... More

This hotel is our first choice when we come to visit our daughter at college. The staff is super attentive to whatever you need; and our little dog was royally treated as well (they have your dog's name on a blackboard out front when you arrive!).

I never leave reviews, but felt compelled after me recent stay with these jokers. I was forced out of my apt in la due to toxic mold, and was put up here.

Dear Miamikevin, I am a little surprised by posting. Your billing was exactly as specified by your insurance company and they were specific about only paying for your room and tax; this is consistent with the billing information they sent to us in writing. The length of your stay was also specific and it was not communicated that you needed... More
