Opinions PALIHOTEL MELROSE Los Angeles

Loud/dated rooms, they should shutdown their patio at 10pm. Great water pressure tho.

No access to a/c control & definitely hear a lot of street noise

A hidden gem! Really good vibe, excellent location and friendly staff. Room was very good and clean. Safe and friendly. 10/10 would recommend

Palihotel Melrose Avenue is providing amazing service

My stay at this hotel was marred by several discomforts that need attention. Firstly, there was constant music from the lobby/restaurant starting at 8 AM and lasting until 7 or 8 PM. This, coupled with the paper-thin walls, made it easy to hear other guests sneezing, coughing, and even having clear conversations.

The room’s dark green color further dampened my stay, creating a depressing and gloomy atmosphere. Additionally, the absence of controlled air conditioning in the rooms was a major inconvenience. The central AC system, being out of my control, left me unable to adjust the room temperature to my comfort.

The room design also lacked practicality. A tiny “bar chair” served as a nightstand next to the bed, which was both impractical and ineffective. Moreover, the lack of charging outlets near the bed was a noticeable oversight.

The hotel’s location on the main street introduced further disturbances. Constant noise from passing traffic, honking, and a visible homeless encampment from my room’s balcony were distressing.

To add to these issues, the Wi-Fi connection was unstable and kept disconnecting, which was particularly problematic for me.

Attached is a picture illustrating some of these concerns.

Overall, these aspects significantly detracted from my experience, and I hope the hotel management will address these issues for future guests.

I stayed for 4 nights; luckily for us they were cool nights. The room has no A/C control so there is no way to set your own room temp. This adjustment is made thru the web site , you have no way of knowing if your request was read or not. The rooms are a bit dark, comfortable beds. We did not have a car so we had no issues with parking. The restaurant had great breakfast I think it was the highlight of our stay.

I'm currently here for the weekend, and going to extend my stay. Highly recommended. It's darling and the cafe is awesome.

FREEZING cold in the room due to central shared air conditioning system; it's really lipstick on a pig this place. I really want to love it but there is no water aside from really expensive bottled water.... Noise wasn't an issue from my experience apart from the noise transfer from upstairs which I guess is pretty bad when hu think about it... the temperature control was horrendous and the reason for the star rating.

Great hotel but rooms are a little dark.

A unique boutique hotel. If you want a break from the big hotel chains, it has a unique charm and an old Hollywood style. Services are limited and the restaurant/bar does not serve food late, but there is a well stocked fridge and snacks in your room.

The rooms are too dark but comfy bed and pillows. it is very loud all day, especially if you're facing the street. During the day, the room service ladies are too loud. The ear plugs dont help.There is no microwave or extra space in the fridge to not have to leave your room. The restroom door is glass, and there is a skylight, so you can't keep the light from coming in, and having a completely dark room parking was the WORST. There is no direct access. You have to exit the hotel and walk around to an alley to get in. No phone for direct contact to reception. Everything is through your phone, like the website for guests. The only good thing was the girl and guy from reception they were very nice and helpful and another guy nicely dressed, probably the manager he was also nice. Also, it's a good thing there is a mini market across the street literally steps away.

I travel the country for work, and this is one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in. Currently sitting in the room, and after asking for the air conditioning to be turned off twice (because you cannot turn it off yourself from your room) yet the AC is still blasting. There are no phones in the room to contact the front desk, the alarm clock went off at 4:30 a.m. there were homeless people outside of the hotel screaming all night. Trash trucks blaring down the alley at 5 in the morning. I do not understand how they justify the price for such a janky, small, loud, rundown hotel. I will never be back and recommend if you are ever in Hollywood, not to stay at this hotel. Absolutely awful. Very deceptive how they present the hotel online.

Billing itself as an ”Offbeat boutique hotel with eclectic rooms," it certainly lives up to that. Although they were absolutely functional: a folding ladder with hangers on which to hang clothes; three-handled faucets-one for hot, one for cold and one to drain; no in-room phones yet an interactive screen through which to obtain services. A great place to stay in West Hollywood!

Worst experience ever I would never recommend going to this hotel!!!! homeless people living across the street on the sidewalk right in front of the hotel not a safe place for children & the hotel elevator looks like it’s about to break down the rooms look like cabins & the Staff is unhelpful with getting back a refund. Worst experience in my life with a Hotel. !!!

Beautiful hotel. Always always friendly staff. I have to book artists here for work and they are always SO helpful and accommodating with my reservations and requests. Never had anything but compliments on the stays here! We love it.
