We stayed here the week before Thanksgiving for one night before going to Universal the next day. The location was perfect if you are going to Universal. We were able to walk to and from the hotel. The rooms were very nice, actually nicer than I expected and the service was great too. The breakfast buffet was overpriced so we... more

I stayed my one night here, since I'd booked a show at the Gibson theatre at Universal studios. My room was on the 3rd floor, just down from the lobby. I agree with others that the $17 parking charge is just too steep. Also, I was unimpressed with the service. My time at the counter (while the agent looked for... more

This is a really great hotel. It had all of the amenities we needed. It was a great location - across for Universal City Park. The staff was very attentive. We had a gorgeous view from our room. The room was large and comfortable. The bedding was relaxing. The bathroom was large and elegant. Everything was spotless. We had a... more

This hotel was OK. The facilities were nice, but the amenities were bare bones for a 'luxury' hotel. You could tell that they were cutting costs. Expected a bit more from this class of hotel (no robes, mouthwash, only provided two towels per room, etc.) Food was good. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Rooms were very soundproof and of adequate size.... more

I don't drive so this was the perfect place for me to stay when going to Universal Studios for a visit. You can use public transport and get really close to it using the underground metro system in LA. I stayed for 3 nights, and was really impressed with the standards at this Hilton. Although there is no longer an... more

This a perfectly decent hotel. A clean, comfortable, predictable but aging property. It's a great choice not only for visiting Universal Studios, but the rest of the best things about LA. I resent paying extra for internet, but I've learned to ask and simply factor it into the room rate. That's like charging for towels, and it's annoying that "upscale"... more

My husband and I stayed here between 13-17 October and we were so happy we did. The location was fantastic, our room was 5 star (it was so big and plush) with stunning views and walking distance to city walk and Universal Studios. Every night we would walk to city walk and have dinner in one of their restaurants and... more

On our arrival we were immediately upgraged to a King sized room at no extra cost! The hotel is perfect for... more

A de rigeur stay when in the area. while the rooms are showing their age the staff and amenities make up for much. First night was in ROH standard room. blech. Though upgraded to the executve level (meaningless as theyve removed the executive lounge in 2008 so just a high floor) the only benefit is a special continetal breakfast room... more
