Hollywood Orchid Suites was wonderful! The service was top-notch - everyone was so friendly! Our room was clean, the beds were comfortable, and it was so nice to have a kitchen that was stocked with all the basics. The location was great - literally a block from the top Hollywood sights. We had no complaints!

Close to Everything. Great staff.
Hotel is a converted apartment complex so the rooms feel more like a home than a hotel. The secure parking is great and the staff went out of their way to make the stay enjoyable. Next door to the Dolby Theatre and Highland Center/Chinese Theatre. Highly recommend.

Loved the Location the most!! Right behind the Dolby Theatre and a shopping mall. The friendliness of staff, cleanliness and size of the rooms were great. Everyone was awesome, especially Patricia during breakfast - which was included and was perfect in terms of selection. Think continental breakfast...bakery, fruit, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, juice and coffee. Ubered everywhere, but if you have a car it’s only $15 a day to park. We would stay here again!!!!

Great stay!
The service was excellent at Hollywood Orchid Suites ! The location was perfect for us as the location is near many places we planned to go. The breakfast was very good, lots of options!! Everything was clean and welcoming. The plants and flowers are all lovely. We had a really wonderful time. My one negative is the beds. The mattress is so hard and uncomfortable and the bedding harsh on my skin. I would come back here if new and better mattresses were bought and nicer linens. Otherwise, all was perfect.

Thank you so much for the review. Regarding the mattress, we have an ongoing mattress update program and our beds usually get good reviews. However we have checked the room you were in and added this mattress to be replaced now. We always appreciate feedback from our guests as to what we can improve on.

This place is amazing! What a great find! Will definitely stay here again next time we’re in town.We got a room (recently remodeled) for our family of 4, and it was plenty of room (bordered on huge). Beds were comfy. The room was impeccably spotless. Continental breakfast was awesome! Patricia, who restocked the breakfast, was a delight! She is so nice and it’s such a nice way to start the day!! I needed some more shampoo and they actually knew my name! So many nice little touches. Three luggage racks, fully appointed kitchen, tons of storage, free wifi, direct tv, on-site laundry facilities, and a great great location!!! A quick cut through the mall and you’re on Hollywood Blvd.

Couldn't get more central to Hollywood boulevard with great access and great transport to all attractions/restaurants. The suite itself was faultless , very spacious , fantastic kitchen facilities, very comfortable would definitely visit again. Breakfast was brilliant , just what was needed with very attentive staff looking after us . Having visited L.A before and staying downtown in the Millenium Biltmore, which was lovely but would rather come back here as it exceeded all our needs.. Would recommend it to anyone . Thanks to all who looked after us :)

Superb Location and Big room
Locations is the best. Room is spacious and have fully equipped kitchen. The lady at breakfast has best service mind. Housekeeping need to improve. I found the hair left in toilets for 2 days. We booked room for 3 persons but they only provide water and amenities for 2 persons. We got bad experiences from the receptions who stay at night shift (Rommel G or similar) when went to ask him about extension of extra bed (we initially booked extra bed for 2 night, but our friend decided to stay 1 more night). While we were talking to him about what we want, he interrupted and tell us that he will service another guest first. Initially, we did not clearly understand what he meant, so we continue talking to him about our request. Then he interrupted again by asking another guest (who waited behind us) as if they were at reception when we arrived (which implied if we have cut their line). so I asked why he asked this question then he just explained that the other guest came earlier and they went down to garage (that's why when we arrived at reception, there was no one waiting in line) the key issue is that this receptionist should ask us in the more polite way if he want to ensure first come first serve. As he had mindset about we did not queue up properly, he did not even listen to what we were asking. He eventually end up checking for the room extension instead of extra bed extension, which he also mentioned that there was only "expensive" room available.

Response from Joseph B on 21 Jan 2020
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your stay. I am glad to hear how much you liked our location, our huge rooms and our breakfast service. Please let me take a moment to address the issues that you wrote about. We believe, judging by our reviews and the room inspections we do, that our housekeeping staff does a very good job. Finding a hair is not good of coarse and we will share this review to our cleaning staff. On the first day of stay we do a lighter “stay over” cleaning that includes new towels and amenities as needed, linen (on the second day) etc. The “checkout” deep cleaning only occurs after the guest checks out. We are a 2 diamond property that strives to offer 3 diamond service and amenities. Many hotels charge for the water or don’t offer any. We however provide 2 free bottles replenished every day (regardless how many guests are in the room) and more can be purchased at our vending machine. As a small hotel there are times that our front desk clerk is alone. He or she has to take care of business in the order it comes and sometimes a guest will need to wait until the clerk is done with the previous guest. Our clerk was taking care of someone just before you arrived and had to send that person to get something from his car. When he returned he had to finish that check in first. I apologize if the clerk was not polite enough or did not explain this in a pleasant matter and for his confusion regarding your request to extend the use of the roll-away bed. I hope your request was finally completed to your satisfaction.

Unbeatable location for Hollywood
Location is perfect for touring Hollywood sites. Hotel room was clean and functional. We had the room right on the main floor next to the front desk, and there were no noise problems. Overall, its a great hotel for Hollywood destinations.

BEST HOTEL EVER
I can't say enough about this hotel!!! LOCATION: Perfect right behind a mall next to Hollywood Walk of Fame CLEANLINESS: unbelievably clean and the room was HUGE. Had small kitchen which was nice. SERVICE: OH my word...the front desk person remembered our names and called us by name every time she seen us. The person serving breakfast was the nicest person and pleasing!! EXTRA's: they sent an email ahead of what to expect, how to get from LAX to hotel which was phenomenal and made the trip so much easier. They also had free bottled water and the minute we stepped in our room they called to check if everything was ok. This by far was the best place I ever stayed!

The hotel is adorable in person and I absolutely love being able to park my own vehicle behind a security gate. I was happy to pay the $16.50 parking fee. Plus the location is wonderful -- right behind Lowe's Hotel on a small cul-de-sac. The staff is exemplary, especially Patricia during breakfast. She waits on you as if you are dining in and has a million dollar attitude. She definitely loves her job and leaves a lasting impression. I was also pleased with the room. The two double beds had lots of room to walk around and everything was very clean. I also loved the green chairs at the table. The wood tile floors are easier to clean and healthier for patrons since they don't trap in bacteria like carpet does. It also came with two large walk-in closets, a good-sized 1/2 refrigerator, a sink and cabinet with serving ware. Staying there longer than one night would be quite comfortable and the price is so reasonable when compared to most of the hotels in the area. I will definitely return, since my daughter now lives quite close. I met a couple from Australia during breakfast who were told they must stay there by their daughter, and they loved it as much as I did. I could hear the traffic nearby because the windows were open, but I just closed one of them and was able to sleep with no problem. I usually stay at much more expensive hotels, but visits to see my daughter will now be more often due to this hotel. Thank you Hollywood Orchid Suites!

It was in a great location to get to the main attractions around Hollywood. Easy to find and tucked away in a quiet street. The pool was remarkably clean and the hotel room was quiet and nice and dark at night time to sleep. The room had a strange smell throughout the entirety of our stay which made us a little uncomfortable.

Nice and Convenient Hotel!!!
This hotel is a smaller, low key hotel (used to be a former apartment building). Big rooms and cheaper than the Loews hotel down the block. Had a nice king size room with kitchen area. Rooms were very clean and only downside was construction on the street in the early morning hours and limited cold breakfast. Staff was very friendly though.... ....hotel is in a GREAT location. Very short walking distance to mall, Hollwood blvd/walk of fame, Dolby Theater, Chinese Theater and Metro station. Very easy commute via metro to Universal Studios and Griffith Observatory.... .... not a high rise, big name hotel...but a GREAT hotel to stay when visiting Hollywoodl. Will stay here again!
