Initial thoughts: Oh wow OMNI! I thought only rich people could stay at these types of hotels, but with my luck I came across a deal for only $99/night at this really nice hotel for NEW YEARS WEEKEND!. That's right, $99 rate for a weekend.
The Room and Hotel: When you pull up to the OMNI to park, you can only valet your car. Prices are pretty steep at $26 for a 24-hour period for hotel guests. Once again, I got lucky because valet was free for hotel guests for the new years weekend. So that saved me $50 alone. The bell boy's are very courteous when you enter the hotel. Check-in was a breeze, took about 5mins to get our room key. We stayed on the 8th floor and had a nice view of downtown LA. The room is very very clean. NO odors lingering around, jus freshness. When you walk in the room, the first thing you'll notice is the big king sized bed with so many extra throw down pillows, you can make another bed with em. Room came with standard TV in a cabinet deal. The OMNI also offers complimentary free internet access to its guests in the rooms, so that was a plus. The bathroom is very big with a seperate tub and stand up shower stall. What surprised me with this bathroom is that it came with a built in speaker in the wall next to the toilet so you can listen to the TV while your in the shower or doing #2. Noise from the other rooms was nearly non existent. This is one of the most comfy beds I've been in, so I really got good sleep.
The Grounds: The hotel is very well kept. I wouldn't linger around the downtown area at night because of the homeless population just 4 blocks down. But at the hotel itself, it was very pleasant and relaxing.
The Service: Excellent. Staff was very accomodating. They made you feel right at home. Service with a smile everytime.
The Price: I scored $99/night for this baby! Regular prices will run you up over $200/night. Look around for internet deals, the pop up once in awhile. Also with that $99 rate, it included 2 days worth of FREE BREAKFAST BUFFET VOUCHERS! The breakfast was really good.
The Wrap Up: Overall, my stay at OMNI HOTEL LOS ANGELES was a very nice one. I wouldn't mind staying at this hotel again only for a cheap rate that I got lucky in finding. But staying at this hotel, made me wanna check out the other OMNI'S in other cities such as SAN FRANCISO and SAN DIEGO.
