“The Élan Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 13, 2012

What a great find! This small boutique hotel has it all. Great location, great service, great room, great shower (very important), comfortable bed, safe area, free continental breakfast (delicious), very competitive price. I almost don't want to tell all the good features about Élan because it will become very busy and then I'll have a hard time getting a room next time in in LA, but isn't that what Trip Advisor is all about? Share the good, bad and ugly. Well, this is the good.

Room Tip: Get a room in the back of the hotel for a quiet nights sleep.

“....love ELAN....”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 4, 2012

Stayed at ELAN for 3 nights and loved everything about it. Small, intimate hotel where the staff know who you are, and go out of their way to make you feel welcome.
Liked - free wifi and computer in the lobby, the wine and cheese each evening, breakfasts, the location, the service.
Disliked - leaving !
Will be ensuring everyone I know who visits LA stays at this fantastic hotel.

“EXCELLENT HOTEL!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 3, 2012

-Hotel Staff VERY friendly and Super helpful.
-Hotel Room standard size (not small like other reviews have said), clean, great amenities. We stayed on the backside of the hotel as to not hear the traffic on Beverly at night.
-The Wine/Cheese reception was worthwhile. Not cheap wine and great cheeses.
-Location very central to all we wanted to see and do in LA.
-Definitely would stay here again!!!

Room Tip: Request Floor 2 / back side OR inside courtyard

Dear Guest,

The Front Desk staff at the Élan Hotel is well trained with knowledge of local restaurants, shopping, sightseeing, directions, and much more. Thanks for recognizing them as they are committed to providing exceptional service. I am glad that you were able to attend the wine & cheese reception. We try to provide a variety of wines from around the globe. The varieties of cheese that we serve are a nice compliment to our wines. Many of the guest especially like bleu cheese and brie. They are actually my favorites as well. Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel and we look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Kind Regards and Safe Travels,

“Great service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

This was my second stay (and review) on Elan Hotel, this time, I've ordered some products only and have requested it to be delivered at the hotel. All my packages except one got delivered. The hotel staff and manager went out of their way to sort out what had happened (the shipping company delivered elsewhere) and helped to locate the package.

The hotel is at a great location, with several dining options and a shopping mall a block away.

The rooms are very clean and have a good size. The internet/wifi had a fast connection.

This is my hotel of choice whenever I'm going to stay in LAX.
