The property was well kept and reasonably priced. It was just a little too old for our tastes; however, because of the convenience of its location, we will probably return.

We are a retired couple on holiday from Australia. We found the Historic Hollywood Hotel to be well-priced. It's conveniently located on Melrose Avenue. It is less than 2 km (just over 1 mile) from Larchmont Village for local coffee shops and restaurants. It's also about 3 km (2 miles) from the famous intersection of Hollywood and Vine. Our room was spacious and comfortable with 2 queen beds. The mattresses weren't great, but with one each were satisfactory. The free Wi-Fi worked well enough. The Edmon cocktail bar attached to the hotel was a popular local watering hole with an excellent bar menu for meals. And right next door in the same building was Sweet Corner Coffee and Cakes - good for breakfast, morning tea or a light lunch. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, would highly recommend if wanting affordable accommodation very close to the action in Hollywood.

I like the vintage feel to the hotel. If you want anything fancy and modern this is not the hotel you want, go to a Westin or Hilton, but if you want a nice, calm, and cozy hotel this is the hotel for you. I would totally be back.

A quirky old hotel with an interesting history. The room was fine but sparsely furnished and the lighting was dim. The front desk staff was very friendly and offered great suggestions for dining.
