Hotel was great.. Check in was quick and easy, rooms was modern and clean.. The service was great except for the wake up call that came at 5am instead of 8am, but they quickly compensated for that by comping the valet parking for the night. I would definitely stay here again! More

Lobby, bars, service up to the usual Kimpton standards but the bathrooms seem in need of a refresh. The toilet flush is loud enough to startle anyone in the bedroom, hot water takes quite a while and the showers are quite antiquated. More

Made a reservation last minute and got a great deal on a great room! The staff meant all of my requests (a quite upper room with foam pillows) and gave me also a free upgrade. The bed and room was very comfortable . . . a topnotch boutique hotel! I work in this area a few times a year and... More

I enjoyed the hotel much more than my usual hotel in that area (Beverly Hills Plaza Hotel) and it was much closer to UCLA. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The wine hour in the lobby was great. I also was very happy with the coffee in the morning. I heard about the hot chocolate being so great, but did... More

I spent five days during Christmas vacation at the Palomar in Westwood. For me it was the perfect location and the best hotel I have stayed at in the area. I loved my up to date and modern room, with its wonderful bed and immaculate bathroom. I loved the pool, heated to perfection, and the pool area. The hot chocolate... More

We went to the hotel for my son's surgery. We have stayed there before. We checked into 4 rooms for my son's heart surgery. He also brought his dog. His dog got a gift pack at check in. And we got the best service, attentive staff and we truly felt like home away from home. We have stayed here several... More

I recently stayed at this property for a girls trip to LA. First things first-when I checked into my room the mirrors on both the entry way and bathroom were dirty, with fingerprints. Secondly the room was dusty and seemed like the attention to cleaning was left unnoticed by the HK staff. I let the front desk agent know this... More

Dear Queen B, We clearly didn't treat you like a Queen B and frankly I'm surprised about the condition of your room. We have one of the best housekeeping teams in the company and this misfire is unusual. I am so sorry about your experience and sincerely hope you allow me the opportunity to make it right... Please connect with... More

I stayed at the Hotel Palomar for two nights and had a great experience. The location was very convenient in getting to/from LAX, with a taxi ride being around $50 (including tip). There is a private car service which you can use (I used it to get to LAX) and it was a wonderful experience and not that much more... More
