We loved our stay at the Hollywood Franklin. Great location, within walking distance of the walk of fame. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. It had the old Hollywood vibe, but was clean and tidy, and so quaint. It felt like an oasis in the middle of the city. The diner on site was awesome too. We will definitely be back!

I stayed 2 nights after getting off a cruise and everything about the experience was top notch. The staff was very nice as the place had a very cozy boutique feel and the location is absolutely in the middle of everything. The bed was comfortable, and the staff aims to please.

I loved this hotel. It’s history and the wonderful memorabilia all around. The location was wonderful. My only observations would be that parking is a factor at $38/night. The smell of cleaning products was a little too strong around the front desk and the coffee shop was on the pricey side. However, I would definitely consider staying here again.

The only negative was getting hit with an extra $50 per night, $40 for parking and $10 service fee. The room was large, bed was very comfortable, very good coffee machine. An added bonus was the restaurant (home made style bread). The hotel also has easy access to the freeway.

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Got us an early check in and then upgraded our room for free when it was discovered our AC was not working. The valet parking was also wonderful, the staff very friendly and quick. The diner attached to the restaurant is fantastic (highly recommend the French toast!) The location is also great and central with the Walk of fame being walking distance away and other major sites a quick drive.
