Opinions ROYAL PALACE WESTWOOD HOTEL Los Angeles

Excellent location. Near UCLA. Within walking distance of Hammer museum and Geffen Theater. Very clean. Spacious room (with small bathroom). Nice breakfast (cereal, yogurt, oranges, bananas, pastries, bagels, pancakes, milk, juice, coffee).

Robert,Drew and Angel at front desk the best! Housekeeping friendly works hard our room was very clean. Great breakfast selection . The owner needs to do paint touch up to rooms. Loved our patio. No charge for parking.

Great value for money in a fantastic location, more than you can expect from a 2 star hotel, very clean, quiet with very helpful staff.

The staff is like family. Jim and Kimchi are the sweetest staff of any hotel I have ever stayed at in the world.

Check-in process was really speedy! Just a heads up, parking might be a little challenging, but if they have to rearrange your car, don't worry, just leave the keys with the front desk. I had such a comfortable and relaxing stay. The room was spotless and the balcony offered a pretty nice view. The fact that breakfast was included the next day was such a nice touch. Overall, it was an absolutely wonderful experience.

El hotel está algo retirado de los sitios más turísticos pero eso hace que la zona sea muy tranquila, además de que también está cerca de la UCLA. A pie hay varias tiendas para comprar cosas básicas y justo al lado del hotel hay un Denny's de 24hrs.
El desayuno fue más de lo que esperaba, sencillo pero con lo esencial. Las habitaciones son regulares, algo viejas incluso, pero la cafetera, el microondas y el mini refri son un plus.
No hay que esperar lujos pero el hotel es suficientemente cómodo para descansar.
Lo recomiendo y sí volvería.

Location was great. Literally 20 min drive from almost everywhere in LA, plus so much around the hotel itself. I traveled with 2 teenage girls and myself and felt completely safe. The room was clean and the maid service tidied up our room everyday during our 3 day visit. Staff was very nice, decent grab and go continental style breakfast, nothing major but nice to have to grab on the go. Coffee was good. Free parking (a hard thing to come by in LA). The only reason I left off a star is the room we stayed in could use a little TLC/update/refresh. We were on the first floor so 2nd floor rooms might be better. I did like that our room had a decent amount of space though. I will probably stay here again when I come back to LA.

Location for us was perfect. Rooms were adequate. Service was good.

This is a wonderfully comfortable hotel on the very edge of the UCLA campus...unpretentious, solid and quiet, just 2 blocks from Wilshire Blvd in Westwood Village. An island of Peace in Los Angeles.

Free breakfast, parking, internet. Friendly service. Rooms are spacious and reasonable for the price.

We loved this place! Great rooms for an affordable price. Excellent service. And located in the heart of Westwood within walking distance of UCLA. Would definitely stay here again!

Hotels, more than any other service, really depend on the price. Royal Palace Westwood is a small quiet Hotel that was really worth the price given the expensive Westwood location.

We were there for early morning medical appointments at UCLA. Upon check in, they started impressing us with their policies and service. They clearly want to make folks feel good about RP and feel comfortable in returning when future medical visits are required. Yes, there is a shuttle to UCLA; the phone number to request a shuttle is posted by the front door. Yes, we can leave our car parked there after checkout so long as we leave our key if we're blocking somebody else. They recommend we leave our luggage inside instead of in the car; it's a good neighborhood but better safe than sorry. The free breakfast was continental, but better than most continental breakfasts with fresh fruit, waffles (or pancakes? I was rushed and skipped them), yogurt, orange juice, plus all the usual stuff.. The beds were comfortable. The rooms were clean. My wife is allergic to all kinds of cleaning supplies, but was not bothered in the least. We were mildly concerned about older reports of mold because I'm highly allergic. I had fewer problems with allergies there than at home, so I consider the reports to have been corrected.

Royal Palace isn't a resort style hotel. Those hotels can run $500 a night or more in West LA. If you want to visit Los Angeles for the many things visitors like, Westwood, UCLA, shopping, beaches, etc. Royal Palace is a clean affordable home base that doesn't try to keep you on site but does try to accommodate you.

停车方便，去ucla位置一流。

For $230 a night I would expect a cleaner and more put together hotel. Front desk staff was helpful and friendly. Housekeeping was also kind and provided timely turnover service. Parking is available, but people regularly double park and don’t leave keys up front like they should so I had to wait at 3am for them someone to move their vehicle. Bed was comfortable.

However, the building is showing serious signs of wear. My door had a gap so large there was light pouring in from the hall. MnM candy on the floor, which was clearly old and dirty carpet. Someone had clearly smoked many cigarettes on the balcony and the room smelled like smoke/must. The ceiling in the bathroom is so wet it looks like it may cave in at any time. Only two plugs in the room worked and everything looked dirty (switch plates, walls, etc). There were also at least 10 small fruit flies/bugs in the room over the three days I was there and I’m not sure how they got in. This place needs work. If you’re staying here for surgery, consider the hotel next door for something more updated. I’d be worried about healing here or even getting sick from staying here. Really needs work.

Edit: Received a prompt and detailed reply from management upon posting. I really appreciate their attention to detail in my reply and am hopeful they will get the remodel they need soon. Added an additional star (2* to 3*) because of this reply.
