I stayed at this hotel for three nights based on reviews from tripadvisor.

After arriving on a 13 hour flight, we just wanted to check in and sleep. We were told our room would be ready in half an hour and they would let us know when it was ready. We waited patiently in the foyer.... two hours later I asked what was happening and was told "Oh, sorry, I forget to let you know - your room was ready over an hour ago". Exhausted and frustrated we finally made it to bed.

The room was nice - spacious and clean. But, the walls were paper thin and we were kept awake at 1am with television and converstation in the next room. We could hear word for word what they were saying.

I am a priority club member and was given the free breakfast which was very good.

On the last day the concierge arranged for a town car to take us to the airport. Five minutes after booking, he called our room to confirm that it was indeed booked. When the town car never showed up, we asked the bellman about it, who asked somebody else who said "oh yeah.... he cancelled". Five minutes later we were told that it was never booked at all. We were left to find our own way to the aiport.

The location is in the middle of nowhere. I would not stay here again.

We stayed April 20 - 22 and thought it was a very comfortable room with terrific bed and pillows, however, the bathroom was sufficient but small. The staff were very helpful and friendly (especially when my husband became ill one night) and they were of great assistance and concerned for his well being. Room Service tray very well presented especially with fresh flowers and mints. The Hotel was also in a good neighbourhood. Would stay again.

We stayed here at the end of April 06, and had no problems. Clean, service was good ; breakfast good (you are entitled to it only if you register online as a priority club member before making reservation - which is free). Staff friendly and helpful. While the hotel is further out, everything else is also spread out so no hotel is central unless you want to pay $300 U.S./night in Hollywood. Would recommend renting a car no matter where you stayed as this would eliminate expensive taxis. Would stay here again.

Stayed here for 2 nights at the beginning of our 15 night stay in the USA. Booked the hotel through the Holiday Inn website (as a Priority Club Member - which is free to join!) Was very surprised at the rate quoted - only $99 + Tax. We booked a 2 x Queen Bed Room - Non Smoking. Upon arrival at the hotel (following the excellent driving instructions from the website) we were checked in prompty and very effeciently and directed to our rooms. As a Priority Club member tey have special floors in certain hotels - we arrived at our rooms and were very very impressed wth what greated us. High floor, view of LA with the Hollywood sign in the distance, 2 Queen beds with Feather Duvet, feather topper and great pillows, air conditioning that worked and welcome letters from the General Manager and Priority Club Manager. Crowne Plaza also have recently introduced a Sleep programe - so on the bed was a CD for helping you to drift off into a deep sleep, some lavender pillow mist, ear plugs and an eye mask all very nice little touches. Used the hotels Valet parking at $18.50 per night - to be honest it is more cost efficeint to use the hotels self parking at only $14.00 per night - as it is under the hotel and you dont have to keep tipping the concierge everytime you need your car keys. As a Priority Club member this also entitles you to a free continental breakfast which includes juices, tea/coffee, yoghurt, cereals, bagels, muffins. You can also upgrade for $5 to the buffet breakfast which we did on one morning and had a cooked breakfast. All in all I would definetly stay at this hotel again - its location is excellent being on the outskirts of Beverly Hills and only 2 or 3 blocks from Rodeo Drive - we felt safe and walked down to a couple of restaurants in the evenings.
