The Spotlight on Banana Bungalow West Hollywood Hotel & Hostel

Social, Affordable, and Right in the Heart of West Hollywood

Modern, quirky, and full of personality, Banana Bungalow West Hollywood Hotel & Hostel brings a vibrant, social vibe to one of LA’s most iconic neighborhoods. Located on the buzzing Fairfax Avenue near the Melrose Strip, you're steps from shopping, nightlife, and some of the city’s top live music spots. This colorful hostel-hotel hybrid is perfect for travelers looking to meet fellow music lovers and enjoy a fun, budget-friendly stay.

Private rooms offer hotel-style comforts like ensuite bathrooms, mini-fridges, and satellite TVs, while dorms deliver a social experience with shared spaces and all the essentials. The property features a Tiki courtyard, outdoor karaoke stage, game rooms, and daily free events—making it a true hub for laid-back fun in LA.

Why Concert-goers love it

With 24/7 front desk service, flexible check-in at 2:00 PM, and a social atmosphere, it’s easy to roll in after a late show. You're within walking or short rideshare distance to legendary venues, and late-night eats are around every corner. The hostel’s layout offers plenty of hangout space if you're amped after a show—or quiet corners if you're winding down. Plus, the free Wi-Fi makes it easy to upload your concert pics before bed.

A cozy, friendly place with...

Liked: Great location—close to shops, restaurants, and public transit. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, and the room was clean and comfortable. Loved the relaxed vibe and the chance to meet other travelers. Simple breakfast was a nice touch. Would definitely stay here again!
Disliked: The only thing I didn’t love was that it could get a little noisy at night, but that’s expected in a shared space. Overall, still a great experience!
