As a few others have already stated....... trying to find something that is close to everything to be able to walk (to avoid the parking hassles of this area), that is reasonably priced and nice is a challange. The Hollywood Celebrity fit the bill. We had a king suite so that the kids (teens) could have their own "room" with the futon bed and a rollaway and still plenty of room in the living area to not feel cramped at all. FINALLY a hotel that understands the importance of mirrors outside of the bathroom. THANK YOU!!!! With 2 teen girls and mom all needing to do hair/makeup having 3 full mirrors was a godsend. Only thing lacking in this area were more electrical outlets. We solved that by a quick trip into a Rite Aid and buying a 6' $4 extension cord that is now going to be a permenant item to pack on all trips. Having the additional vanity area and the other two large mirrors made only having 1 bathroom for 4 people very easy.
Our room was clean and large and the location can not be beat. Easy walking distance to Graumann's, Hollywood & Highland Shopping Center, Kodak Theatre and every other nearby attraction in that area of Hollywood without having to deal w/ driving in the traffic and finding a parking spot.
The price could not be beat either.
As for the breakfast.......... having the coffee downstairs was great. We stopped at Trader Joe's that is only a few blocks away and stocked up on some drinks for the fridge, milk, orange juice and ceral and we were set.
I'd recommend the Hollywood Celebrity Hotel to friends and family no problem. We are used to very nice 4 and 5 star accomodations and having this nice, clean comfortable hotel in such a great location w/ a large room for a great price makes it very appealing.
We all said they could easily do some major updating, become a very exclusive boutique hotel and raise the rates dramatically. They have the location, room sizes and layout to do it. Just hope they don't as it would take away a great spot to stay in Hollywood without breaking the bank.
