Top hotels in The Strand
Hyatt Regency Los Angeles International Airport
Across the street from the airport and the restaurant serves dinner after 10:30, which was unexpected and great! Efficient and clean and opted to walk to the airport instead of taking the shuttle, which was packed and not as frequent as I would have wanted. But the hotel was great!

The Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites, Los Angeles
What can I say?…we will definitely be back! Such a great experience. Everyone was super helpful. Nice bar, Starbucks handy, great breakfast buffet, and a nice little night menu if you choose to stay in. The pool was very enjoyable also. Looking forward to next time.

The Biltmore Los Angeles
Old school charm oozes out of every corner. Fabulous detail in all the public spaces. Rooms are large. Bathrooms and functional - as one should expect from a 1920s hotel. A movie was being filmed while I was there.
