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.

Self check in is a joke
Self check-in was unexpected. That should be upfront, before booking. No interaction to find room, enter gates, attempt several times to use the door access lock. Simply mad 😠

Felt like i was staying in someone's rundown apartment, all the way to the random 2 forks and a knife by the sink. Was afraid to walk on the floor barefoot. The shower curtain was so far from the shower that the bathroom floor was completely soaked. Big disappointment

I went to a concert at The Hollywood Bowl and enjoyed the 25 minute stroll from the hotel to the venue. The access to Yamashire is unequalled and the dining experience was 5 star, absolutely incredible views and fantastic scenery and great service and delightful food!

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.

The room did not look what was advertised,
Very hard to find location and room was very hard walk up down old stairs.
There is no lobby or front desk.
Staff is gone after 5:30pm so good luck getting towels and help.
Over all not happy with experience

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.

Staffing was great! Very helpful and responsive. Overall the property was great. There were some areas that looked to be under construction but it did not affect our stay. Beautiful restaurant connected to the property too that is worth a visit. We will definitely be back to this hotel space in our future traveling!

Great Customer Service
Customer Service was excellent - my initial room was dirty and some of the infrastructure was not functioning as designed. Customer Service upon reading my check-in review called me the morning after my arrival to see if I was open to switching rooms - the team was professional and courteous.

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.

We stayed for 3 days and two nights. We had to use the same towels for three days. On the second day, I called for new towels and Front Desk said that room service stopped working at 4 pm. I requested new towels the next day, but they were not delivered. This hotel needs to have room service 24 hours.
