This is the place to be. We were very pleased with our stay at Holiday Inn Express. All the Staff we came in contact with, were all pleasant and helpful. The Hotel location was right off the freeway ramp. The location to Universal Studios & Universal City Walk was great. We had a room reserved for three nights and we... More

First time staying in Los Angeles I wanted to be near the attractions in the area: Universal Studios, Universal Citywalk, and Warner Brothers Studios. I also wanted to feel safe walking around at night as I was traveling alone (yes, female). This hotel delivered on location. I got what I need a solo traveler, did not have to worry about... More

This Hotel is on the side of freeway but when you get inside the room, it was quiet enough to have a good night sleep. The room is very very clean. It is adjacent to Universal Studio, 2 miles from Hollywood walk of fame.....Call them to have a best deal... More

We stayed here 2 nights to visit Hollywood and Universal. Its a fairly short walk to Universal and the local bus stops right outside to take you into Hollywood. Its close to a freeway so you can hear the traffic. The breakfast was good, real boiling water for tea - amazing and I loved the pancake machine. They stored our... More

This hotel is great if you are visting LA. There is free parking, so if you are visiting Universal Studios you can avoid having to drive and pay for parking as you can walk to universal studios from the hotel. It is also well situated to other attractions. The rooms are clean, the staff are friendly and helpful. More

The hotel was a 10 min walk to Universal Studios, there's a Starbucks, gas station and restaurants across the street, and the staff were so nice! Very convenient and great value. More

Was very unsure about what kind of hotel this was when I notiiced a security guard parked in the parking lot all night..Parking is limited and basically right off the street. Upon checking in the front desk staff seemed more concern with what they were working on than me standing there waiting to be checked in. That put me off... More

Hotels these days keep reducing services. We do the opposite. Guest satisfaction is our number one priority. We have expanded breakfast, free parking (rare in hollywood), free internet, and yes, security. Guests are on vacation and have many valuables in their cars, like shopping items and electronics. Security protects this. Also, in morning, homeless people in area sometimes try to... More

Our laptop was stolen from his hotel and not one accomodation has been made to help replace it or make ammends for what obviously was a staff theft. The room was locked. Only hotel staff had access during our stay. They are claiming that nothing can/will be done. 3 times we have been promised a return call regarding this matter... More

Dear Guest, we are sorry your laptop is missing. The manager states you called and informed the hotel that the laptop was missing hours after your departure from the hotel. The hotel management checked your room, and asked staff, and no one had seen it. People leave things in rooms all the time, and staff always reports it. We would... More

So many hotels to choose from in LA, and we decided to stay near Universal Studios. The hotel was not cheap (around 110 pounds per night) but breakfast is included! The rooms are clean, but no views. The car park is difficult to find, as the only (large) sign can only be seen from Barham turnoff from the expressway. Breakfast... More
