Our stay at the Magic Castle was perfect. We were greeted with incredibly friendly staff and champagne upon arrival. They asked about our plans, which included a show at the Hollywood Bowl and they informed us that we could walk to it. Such a great tip as we were prepared to take the shuttle. It saved us so much hassle. The room was clean and spacious. Property is walkable to many restaurants, bars and sites. Would definitely recommend and stay again in the future!

Staff went above and beyond. Kevin made a point to know all of the kids names and addressed them personally each time he saw them. Popsicle hotline and free snacks were a cool feature!

The staff make this place amazing. It’s a little run down and could do with a good clean, but I’d return for the staff and service, plus location. The kids would return for the popsicles and snacks!

This was one of our favourite hotels on the trip. Great location, great parking, great staff, great pool (that was actually open mid May and heated). Loved the movies and the snacks. The room was a great size. Its also right near the walk of fame, but you dont get any of the noise or business. The only negatives were the room smelt a little of gas when we came in. The floor wasnt in the best condition - in one place in the living room there was a nail head protruding from the floorboards which I stuck a plaster over so as it didnt injur the kids. Lastly, we had read that you get entry to the magic club if you stay there, so we brought dinner clothes especially and it turned out that only applies if you book direct and it also requires a booking months in advance. I wouldnt let any of this put you off though and I'd certainly stay again!

We couldn't have asked for a better start to our long overseas trip. After a long flight we were welcomed with refreshments and lots of welcoming smiles. The attention to detail of all the complimentary "extras' and acts of kindness to go above and beyond made our stay enjoyable. I would highly recommend anyone with a young family to stay here. it's withing walking distance of Hollywood Blvd and central to many other places to see. We hope to return again one day for a longer stay. My daughter hasn't stopped raving on about the Magician who visited the hotel to interact with guests during breakfast. Thank you again for a wonderful few days in LA.

I have stayed at the Magic Castle multiple times. This recent trip was to see a show at the Hollywood Bowl which is so convenient. The staff and amenities really make the MC stand out. Kevin and Nick were phenomenal! Our room was clean and comfortable. My partner and I will definitely be back the next time we are in LA! Thank you!

Hotel is very close to Hollywood Boulevard - only a short walk. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. Free snacks available. Complimentary self use laundry. Only downside was the number of stairs to our room and the room was a bit small.
