There was an event happening that day so several days before, Since it was my actual birthday, I had requested an early check in (12 pm). I was given a rate and was told to call back the day before to confirm. I called back and was left on hold for several minutes (25). Then a message came on that I would get a call back and not lose my place in line... no call back. On my birthday, I decided to go early, around the same time that I requested the early check-in, and I was told that I would have to check in at the regular time. 4pm. When I was finally given a room, it was the smallest room I had ever been in. Just room for a King-Sized bed with a few steps to the bathroom. My friends that booked at the same time as me had much bigger rooms. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable and for such a small space, they used it wisely. There were very few amenities, 2 tiny bottles of water. I was given 2 vouchers for breakfast that was supposedly included with my stay. It ended up being $10 off of a mediocre $38 buffet of eggs that had been sitting all morning. I give this hotel 3 stars.. It was just okay.

There was blood stains on my sheets and they didn’t get me into a new clean room until 8pm and still charging me for the room. I have pictures and videos of the sheets. There were stains all over the bed. My entire day was wasted on just waiting by the lobby until they cleaned or switched room.

Room is small but super clean, cute, quaint corner room had nice views of Hollywood. We had a couple issues with the blinds in the room and the bathroom, maintenance came quickly and fixed the issue.
Myra at the downstairs bar was extremely hospitable and helpful when our server said there was no creamer. Myra went downstairs to get the flavored creamer we were requesting because upstairs was out. Staff that willingly go over and beyond are hard to come by.

Breakfast passes are per person, for 1 day. This wasn’t specified, on the website I didn’t find out until I got there. They have events but don’t let you know, so if you would like to chill by the pool side you’ll have to be given a wrist band, and have selective seating. 80% of the seats are reserved for the event parties. We were notified as guest that events were happening which took away from our stay. Time and money we won’t get back. There was a day that the bar was completely closed and was open for the event, not for guest. Some staff members were stand off ish and the others were very sweet. (I didn’t see any name badges to specify who), it was a gentleman at the front desk came off a little rude or like he was bothered by us. Room service was decent, sometimes they came quick but then there was a time where the didn’t come and I had to remind them. In our hotel room, we were having problems with our bathroom door closing. It kept falling off the top part where it should slide. It was numerous times we were struggling to get out the bathroom, and had to have someone from the other side to open it. Aesthetic wise the hotel was beautiful and modern. I would rate my total experience a 7.5/10

Overall amazing experience however a few things need to be noted. The blinds did not work and kept getting stuck and was extremely frustrating to deal with when opening and closing blinds. Also, the light coming from the thermostat was a bright blue light that lit up the whole room while sleeping. Other than the room being an issue the staff was very friendly, the space was very clean.

The room was very nice and clean. It had a very good smell to it not sure what they use but it made it very inviting! The only thing I could say about the property is the gym facility could use an overhaul! The curtain in front of the window is falling down, a plastic clear box mounted to the wall half falling off, no sanitizer wipes in there to clean the equipment. The restaurant bar area very nice in the pool area as well as the main lobby area. overall the next time we are in the area I’d stay there again!

Mediocre hotel. Area is close to everything but at the same time not. Not great options of restaurants/ breakfasts within walking distance. Not a great walk period.
Staff seem very unsure of the area and what’s around.
Pool does not reflect photos.
Breakfast is questionable ….half a table of “buffet” breakfast for $38…. Just take it off and keep à la carte.

Overall clean property. But I would not choose it as my stay again.

I stayed one night at The Godfrey Hollywood while in LA for a medical appointment at Cedars-Sinai. Not a vacation — just a guest who needed a quiet place to rest before a stressful day.
Between Expedia notifications, emails, and texts, I received a flood of messages for a single overnight stay — I have screenshots across all three channels. Major hotel brands are deliberate about when and how they communicate. The Godfrey's approach felt indiscriminate and created unnecessary stress.
The fees compounded things. This is not a resort. Charging a Vegas-style resort fee on top of expensive parking felt more like a revenue strategy than hospitality — and it wasn't clearly communicated upfront.
The check-in experience set the tone for all of it. The front desk staff was completely transactional — mechanical and disengaged. No warmth, no acknowledgment that you were a human being. In hospitality, that first impression is everything.
The Director of Rooms did reach out and apologize, which I appreciated. But an apology doesn't fix a systemic problem. I won't be returning for my upcoming follow-up visits — which would have been recurring business.
Future guests: know the fees upfront, brace for your inbox, and don't expect a warm welcome at the door.

The room is quite small. As soon as walking into the room, you're walking right into the bed. The air conditioner was not working, so the air was constantly blowing. Also the walls are thin, I could hear the housekeeper cleaning and vacuuming the room next door early in the morning.They do give you a complimentary $10 comp card for drinks at the bar, or for food.

It's a nice small hotel room. The rooftop is to die for and really what made our stay truly worth it. The pool and lounge are perfect. The rooms are small and the AC does not go below 19°C which is not great when it's so hot out. Shout out to Ericka (server) who was amazing! I had an issue with my room and needed to be moved to a new one and was told the amenity fees etc would be removed and received vouchers for food at the restaurant. When I went to check out the front staff person said she had no idea as the guy I spoke to apparently didn't leave any notes or mention of it. I explained the situation and said I wasn't going to leave without knowing this was dealt with and eventually she removed the fees. Location wise there isn't anything extremely close for food but if you are good walking a few blocks you'll find something. Hollywood Blvd is about 3-4 blocks up the street. The food at the hotel is not so great so I'd recommend looking elsewhere. We also noticed many people enter the pool who were not guests at the hotel (this slipped out of their mouth) so I'm not entirely sure how security isn't around for this when you need a key to enter the pool area. I would stay again just for the rooftop.

Rarely write reviews. But would not recommend. They do a $150 hold charge per day and say it takes 3-10 business days to be removed. The rooms do not have iron, ironing board or microwave.

I chose this hotel because it seemed to offer a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The facilities were pleasant, but the staff's overall attentiveness fell short of expectations. In addition, the rooms are quite small; extra charges are not clearly communicated in advance; water must be requested specifically; and the process for connecting services like Netflix is unclear and not explained beforehand. I believe more genuine attentiveness and care from the staff could have made a meaningful difference.

I was extremely pleased with our stay at The Godfrey. The staff was super friendly and helpful, the breakfast was the best we had in LA and priced competitively with surrounding restaurants and the amenities were amazing. I really appreciated being able to enjoy the rooftop without a bunch of people around. The Valet system is top notch. My only con is the room we stayed in, 426, had some weird stains and damage to the ceiling and there were some small maintenance issues they need to address (shower doesn’t fully shut off and the bathroom has some cracks in the walls/wallpaper). All in all, I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Hollywood.
