I stayed here as part of a group so we got a decent rate. The rooms are VERY nice, the bed is probably the most comfortable I've slept on in my life. Maid service was excellent, I came home every night to a turned down bed and they even folded my pajamas! They also have a high degree of ethics, the first day the maid didn't even take my tip because I left the money on the table so I guess they didn't want to assume that the $2 was for them, they only took the tip when I left the cash on the bed. I didn't get a chance to use some of the nice amenities because I got back late every night and just hit the pillows but I did use the computer "room" (actually a teeny tiny closet with two computers) on the 4th floor to check my email which was convenient and free which is always a nice touch. My room looked out at nothing in particular and was extremely quiet but one of my friends got a room next door to Boa and it was really loud until 2 am, so beware when you're checking in.

The location is convenient to pretty much all of the main sites in LA but only if you have a car. If you're not going clubbing then the section of Sunset the hotel is on is really quite boring. I stayed in a wheelchair accessible room and my only complaint is that the hotel has no double bedded rooms that are accessible so I had to opt for a king. Not a problem as I was staying by myself but inconvenient if you're a person with a disability traveling with a friend and don't want to share a bed. It would've been impossible to fit a rollaway in as that would've precluded access to the closet and such. The bathroom was gigantic though and with nice toiletries. Also, the doors are very tough to open, and some of my friends who do not have disabilities had trouble too so it was not just me. If anyone at the hotel is reading this, please grease the doors or shave the bottoms or something!

I've stayed at many hotels in West Hollywood and when I decided to make a last minute to trip and all the faves were booked (Chateau Marmont, Mondrian, Roosevelt), we decided to try the Grafton. I was extremely impressed! For around $250 night, the hotel was very accomodating and comfortable and the location is just a few doors down from the Mondrian. It was too cold to hang poolside, but the pool area looked very hip and trendy. The hotel even helped us find a late night diner to deliver at 4am since their room service had shut down!

Stayed here over Christmas, good location on Sunset. Nice room overlooking the pool. Bathroom very small. Staff very friendly and a handy courtesy car facility.

Worth trying the BOA lounge and bar. Also literally next door to the classier Mondrain hotel.

BUYER BE VERY AWARE. Booked two rooms for four nights for NYE 2008 weekend and had to move after the first night b/c we didn't know about the construction. Walls are PAPER THIN, you can hear right through to the rooms next door, my friends could hear the guy snorring next to to them and some beds have bed mites, mine was ok, my girlfriend got bitten up! The front desk staff needs customer service training but if you don't have any room or reservation issues, you'll be fine. A positive, you can't beat the location. Right next to Skybar and across from Katana restaurant on Sunset. The people in the BOA lounge (not run by hotel thank goodness) are absolutely GREAT, and the atmosphere is "loungy" and relaxing. We didn't eat in the steak house but I saw the manager there every day and he was helpful and nice as well.

I guess you get what you pay for, just be careful when booking this hotel.
