STILE Downtown Los Angeles

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent stay. The staff was so friendly and our room was perfect. It was stylish and warm. We would love to stay again for our next LA visit."

"loved our time at Hotel Figueroa, would love to come back some day!"

The Live Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Muy buena excelente. Recomendada."

Forty First Place - Boutique Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Secure, mostly quiet (there is a large soccer stadium nearby- a plus if you like soccer) and a very helpful woman who handled the door codes when AI didn't. Kitchen space looked well equipped, but didn't use. Another guest left pans from cooking dinner on the stove overnight. It was still much more accommodating and comfortable than I had expected and I won't hesitate to stay there again."

JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful lobby and facilities."

10/10 Excellent

"Llame a front desk porq mi esposo tenía un dolor de muela fuerte , por una pastilla ya que es difícil encontrar algo abierto a las 12 de la noche y el recepcionista noah me atendió amablemente y me consiguió una pastilla a esa hora muy buen servicio"

Vagabond Inn Los Angeles at USC

10/10 Excellent

"Welcoming front desk staff and great location to visit USC from. Clean and sufficient for a short stay in LA!"

The Hoxton, Downtown LA

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice front desk staff and unique property! No gym on site- I believe they let you work out at a gym a few blocks away, but I want outside instead before it got too hot. Pool is lovely but small (no chaise lounges to fully recline in just FYI). Nice poolside service. Valet can be busy/disorganized so give yourself ample time to get your car pulled around."
