The room was clean and a beautiful view but parking was a little confusing and there was no pool. The place was a little dumpy and could use a little TLC, though that is cosmetic and not a reflection of the comfort of the room. I had expected a little more.

The room was clean and spacious. Lacked kitchen amenities that would have helped, toaster, bowls, cooking utensils. The counter top cooktop wasn't working but had a hotplate instead which was fine. We asked for a bed sheet change that didn't happen but we did get refunded one night of parking. The clean sheets were then left for us to change ourselves.

We got placed in a lower level room with hill view.It was out dated older furniture showing damage and wear, big hole in floor by door, some of the walls were they didn’t finish painting, slider had no screen and old locks. Very noisy property.

Very nice room, amazing view. No elevators and a lot of stairs. Don’t bring rolling suitcases or a lot of luggage, if you can avoid it. Also, there are no food options at the hotel outside of the restaurant that does not have reservations until late night. Due to it being so out the way from most outside restaurants and the surrounding traffic, we used DoorDash and Lyft a lot.

• No on-site management or front desk
• Forced to rely on a broken mobile web app just to access the property
• Unsafe and misleading room access through a dark alley with rat traps

Room issues were severe.

• First room had a broken sliding door that would not close
• Second room had a mouse run out of the bedroom
• Third room smelled strongly of marijuana and had slippery floors from excess cleaning chemicals

Response and resolution failed.

• Long delays handled only by text
• No urgency despite safety and cleanliness issues
• Offered only a partial refund for a three-night stay

This was not a staff or amenity problem.
It was a basic safety, cleanliness, and management failure.

Avoid!
First is the self check in, i guess they want you to check in by yourself so their staff can avoid your unhappy face and complains.
Never see a more sorry looking building been called \"hotel\", it was some old 50s or 60s building. very basic decoration inside, they repainted but you just know it`s old. floor is thin, i can hear every steps form the room above. most the furniture in the room just old and cheap.
view? maybe on the top floor, all i can see is the roof of another sorry looking building. All the nice looking photo about nice Japanese building, the garden, the view, are from the restaurant, they have nothing to do with the \"hotel\" part.
for that price, there are much better options around.

This was obviously an old apartment that had been converted into a hotel to get around Air BnB laws. The room was drafty with a strange smell that wouldn't air out, it was dangerous getting up the hill to the location in the first place and no where on the booking were we told that their pool (our main reason for going) would be closed.

They do not have any human in-person guest services. There is a kiosk or you text a phone number. The buildings are very old and there is dry rot everywhere. Although the rooms have a “nice” facelift, the floors shift or sag wherever you walk. Windows have rotting wood that was panted over. And at one point the upstairs neighbor was watering plants and the water was coming in through the windows and ceiling! There is also a hooka club lounge near the pool area that is loud until late, with patrons coming into the hotel and pool premises to use the pool restrooms. View is nice, but building conditions, lounge noise, and the lack of any front desk or human guest services is really a turn off.

Just okay

I really wanted to love this place, but it was just OK. From the fact that there is no front desk, or concierge or ice machine… To the fact that we had to walk up three flights of stairs with our luggage to get to our room. I requested a room with two beds, but only received one.
The view is the most amazing part of this place. I thought it would be cool to try out this hotel, I’ll see a show at the Hollywood bowl. But the lack of amenities, lack of assistance or help with getting around caused us to really not enjoy our stay. It was also ridiculous to park and walk uphill everywhere.

Nice view, but I’d stay elsewhere.

Run down and not well cared for. Walking barefoot made my feet black, and several things were broken. And yet in the middle of my one night stay- I was asked to let a repair person into the room. When I said it was not convenient, (all via text, I had no contact with a human) they responded “thank you” and sent the repair person.

The view and seclusion of the property is great. However I encountered some minor inconveniences that unfortunately could not be remedied.
There is no front desk and staff is randomly on the premises so if you need anything fresh towels for example. It really depends on your luck. I called for towels at night and was told I needed to request before 4 pm. I was told they could bring them around 8am-9am in the morning. I called them again in the morning at 9am and they said they would bring them to me around 10am.
On Saturday night the main road to get up there was completely backed up because the property is shared with the Yamashiro restaurant. We spent about an hour just waiting to get to the hotel parking. Also Yamashiro restaurant uses the hotel guest parking for valet parking. So parking is limited.

Lost reservation to bad key

We had a reservation here the night of an Imagine Dragon concert plus the World Series was playing at Dodger Stadium. That is to say about everything was booked up and we booked this way ahead. Well, a bit over an hour from us arriving in LA, on our drive there, we get a call from the hotel last minute canceling due to their having a \"lock issue.\" No offer to call a locksmith or otherwise help us. Then it took a while to get the $30 parking fee they charged removed rebated. In fact i had to do a card dispute.

I'm giving this place 5 stars based on the context of what the place actually is and what my expectations were after reading other reviews. I really enjoyed my stay here. We stayed in room 107. The website is a little misleading on what the place actually looks like and the condition of the rooms. The bed was super comfortable and we had a great view of Hollywood from the room and balcony. The room was huge was pretty clean but it could have been a little cleaner with paying attention to detail. The room looks like nice but also looks like it's ready for a remodel with some wear and tear on everything. The parking is limited and can be a little tight. It's a great location if you want to spend time in Hollywood. We spent most of our time in downtown LA and it was about 25 mins from that. I'd stay here again. If the view is important to you, make sure you get one of the rooms that has a view like 107 did. If you're not expecting perfection you'll enjoy it here. I'd stay here again though.

Great views, wide open windows to bring it all in. Balcony you can sit out on and enjoy the view. HUGE room with kitchenette. VERY convenient to Hollywood Blvd, less then 15 min to Universal Studios. We did enjoy our room. Motel is gated and we felt somewhat safe.

Now for the issues. This is an older building, there were rotten spots in the bathroom and living area. I can look past that. Lighting was horrible in our room. No light over the mirror in the bathroom, about 1/4 of the space didn't have any lights at all.

We were in room 206, never had a problem when we came in as it was closest to the Motel Guest parking. The spots are small for the SUV but we managed.

The old stairs that use to go directly to Hollywood were closed off and probably not safe to walk on anyways. If you walk down the road, the gate was locked with no way to open it unless you \"break in\" (which was not that hard)

The remote for our TV was missing. i informed them right after we arrived and 3 days later and trying to get another remove we never had a TV in our room. (I mean the guest services tried everything from giving me the staff password to opening another room to try that remote to even changing rooms to a larger room the last night)

Our room was lacking furniture. Nothing to put clothes in or on. The TV didn't face the bed which would have been an issue if we could have watched it.

Like Hollywood itself, the promo reel for this hotel is fairly airbrushed. We had a clean, very spacious one bedroom which was ideally situated near the Hollywood Bowl. We ended walking back to the hotel after our concert but note, it is a fairly steep endeavour. It was worth it though as ride-share looked to be at least an hour wait for such a short distance. Read others reviews to decide whether this Hotel will suit your expectations. Hollywood Hills Hotel was great for us as we only needed it for one night. Be patient for your room key to be sent as it literally is sent to you just before check-in. For international travellers, you will a full on plan for your phone that allows DMs to your phone number. Communication with staff by email was very good with a quick response time.

I actually liked this slightly seedy hotel.

For these reasons, I would book this place again:
Because it overlooked the other close by buildings and out over Hollywood. The room was large and comfortable w a kitchen and supplies. I also had a sentimental reason for wanting to try it out as my husband and I had been at both Yamashiro's and the Magic Castle many times in the past. The price was reasonable.

The bathroom left a lot to be desired as the tub was strangely corroded.

I would have loved to be informed that there was no elevator and the only way to the rooms were stairs...at night with luggage.

I would have also loved more and better directions to get to the rooms. There was no one to help in person -
I found myself at the Yamashiro's valet area where a valet was not friendly and just asked me to drive out but had no empathy for my looking for the rooms at night. I guess he was busy but it was slightly scary for a single woman at night.

Hollywood Hills Hotels needs help

We had a 3night stay at Hollywood Hills Hotel. The view of LA from our 5th floor room balcony was absolutely beautiful. The room was large and clean. The location to Hollywood Bowl and restaurants is great. The hotel does not have any elevators and has a lot of stairs which this info should have been forthcoming. The hotel does not have a front desk, so you have to call or text when you need something. On day two our toilet stopped working; my husband texted the concierge who responded by saying he would call a plumber (no maintenance on site) After hearing that my husband fixed the toilet himself. Our drain in the bath tub was extremely slow, by the time we finished taking a shower the tub was half full of water. We called down to request more towels at 4pm one day and was told that housekeeping had left for the day and we would have to wait till the next morning to get clean towels. On day two our QR code didn’t work on our room door. We called the concierge and had to leave a message, then we texted. After ten minutes of standing outside of our room, we finally got in after the concierge reprogrammed the code. This hotel is old, run down and lacks all human interaction. Customer service is awful because there wasn’t any. There was a large bag of garbage that was sitting next to the stairs that was there when we checked in and didn’t get moved till two days later. I give this hotel one star and that’s because of the beautiful view and the room was clean.

I requested new towels the next day, but they were not delivered. This hotel needs to have room service 24 hours.

I really loved it, it's definitely a vibe.

This is a very particular property; it is perched up on a hill where the legendary, century-old Yamashiro restaurant sits. The hotel is not really a hotel, but an apartment-like group of suites.

The views of the hills and Hollywood are really great, but the property is a bit run down. If you're into the whole slightly-creepy-David-Lynch-Hollywood-Hills vibe as I am, then this hotel is for you. It's clean, but does have that distinctive, mysterious \"LA smell\" of old carpet and wood.

Overall the experience is great. The property shows its age, but is very clean, and it all adds to the atmosphere. It is VERY Hollywood Hills, so if you want to immerse in the vibe of the place, then by all means stay here.

Turned out more like a motel, not a hotel. The quality of the rooms are very different from the pictures. Very old unmaintained property and very sketchy location.

The accomodations looked nothing like the pictures. I paid extra for a balcony with a view and the balcony hung over the street and was covered in bird poo. Our room was also constantly damp. Walking across the rugs it was always slightly moist. There is no front desk, so when we needed another blanket and more towels we had to text. The blanket never arrived and the towels were tossed on the couch in our room. It was obvious that people lived in some of the rooms full time and it was also clear that the interior rooms had been partially updated, but major things were untouched. For example, the bathroom is spacious, but the toilet is right against the door and the paint is peeling off of the walls. Furthermore, old vents were covered in duct tape.

My friend and I were both sick by the end of our stay.
