Accommodation near Griffith Observatory

The hotel was in a great location and the staff was friendly!

Everyone was accommodating and made us feel welcome. Easy walk to the Montalban Theater.

Great location, enjoyed the diner located in hotel

We spent more time at the hotel than we planned to because of how bad it stormed for a few days of our stay. That gave us the opportunity to explore most things the hotel had to offer that we probably wouldn’t have otherwise. We spent a lot of time at the bar. The food was great and reasonably priced during happy hour (3p-6p). Emmy, our bartender for all but one of the times we sat at the bar was SPECTACULAR. She told us the story behind the drinks we ordered. She gave us recommendations where to go once the rain stopped. She was a burst of sunshine on a rainy day and set the tone for our stay at the hotel and for the trip in general. I’d come back to this hotel for the sole purpose of sitting at the bar and hanging out with Emmy. The bar has a wonderful chill space with a pool table and nooks to just sit lounge about. The pool deck was very nice, featuring a heated pool and a variety of seating options. We didn’t get to enjoy it because it was stormy. The room itself was very nice. We had the spa suite, which included a massive bathroom with both a shower and a large clawfoot tub, large enough for two to soak comfortably. The hotel provided bath salts and robes which were a nice touch. The king bed was super comfortable, and I’m someone who generally has a hard time getting comfortable on hotel room beds. There’s always stuff one can nitpick, but overall the hotel delivered on everything the Kimpton brand is known for and more.

No coffee?

Probably one of the dirtiest hotels I’ve stayed in. I mean it’s as clean as a motel 6. And no warning was given about a marathon happening the next morning. We couldn’t move our car out till 3 pm. That was a bit inconvenient. But on the bright side they had really cool art work on their hotels doors.
