TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Hotel was chosen due to the proximity to Universal Studios. You can also easily walk to Hollywood Boulevard (the time square of LA). Rooms were a bit beat down. Holes in sheets, rust in shower, etc. Was highly annoyed by the $55 parking fee. Seemed excessive considering the location.

By Far the worst Garden Inn hotel i have ever being. Valet parking $55 dlls by day, no sound isolation (all night hearing the cars passing near the hotel), $200 dlls of deposit & horrible smell in the room. I selected this hotel because is near to Universal Studios, but i decided to move mi reservation to a different Garden Inn in Lake forest Irvine

Good shuttle service - fast check in and nice room. The main issue was noise from the road which was so bad could hardly sleep - awake from 2am onwards. Would not stay here again solely for this reason.

I had a recent disappointing experience at this Hilton hotel. When we arrived the front desk gave us a key to a room that was already occupied. When we confronted the front desk about it, they gave no apology and sent us to a different room. After almost a full month, we were notified of a billing error and were charged 100 dollars the day before Christmas. We will never stay at this hotel again.

Interested in attending the Hollywood Bowl? There are some motels within walking distance of the Bowl park but none are as accommodating as the Hilton Garden Inn on Highland. Why so comforting? Except for the very penurious dispensing of coffee in the room by Kuerig (bring your own cream), the courteous staff, shaded pool and excellent hot-tub, comfortable beds, on-site exercise room, and eatery can make your stay an invigorating experience. If you bring a car, it is pricey --like all hotels-- to stow-it. The hot water comes quickly from the faucet and showers ample for two or fewer! There is a limited range of items for purchase to charge to the room; mostly pre-packaged food with high salt and sugar contents. So bring your own fruit becaus ethere is small refrigerator in the room beside the microwave. Yes, big-creen TV for the kids and old folks to entertain --but not as exciting as checking out the garrish store displays along the star-encrusted Hollywood Boulevard shops and restuarants. Up the hill is the Hollywood Bowl a ten to fifteen minute walk and you do not have to cross the busy Highland Ave thoroughfare to access the place for music under the stars. Evening fog may encourage your to bring a sweaterm, hoodie, or jacket, but the music is sheer delight.
