DoubleTree By Hilton Los Angeles Downtown

Major management involvement needed to compete with good LA hotels. Will not go there again.

Liked: Bed comfort; staff; shuttle.
Disliked: Room size; handicapped aids; menus; lack of real restaurant; value.

Although I thought this hotel was beautiful and the staff was friendly, for what I paid I could have gotten much more somewhere else. I thought it was pretty tacky that they charge for overnight parking, it's not like you are going to park for only a few hours. $32 is too much to park when your room is already upwards of $300 for a standard room. Also my pet peeve - one packet of sugar and one creamer might look nice and appointed in the coffee caddy in the room, but not very realistic. Also, if you are sharing a room with someone, make sure to bring your own toiletries, because there will not be enough shampoo for 2 people. But then again, aesthetics are an important part of the illusion of luxury. The rooftop garden was beautiful and peaceful. Location was perfect. Overall good experience but a bit pricey for what is offered, but then again that's LA for ya.

Liked: Clean room.
Disliked: Parking.

Good for the most part

Liked: Most things

Liked: I enjoyed that it is located in downtown Los Angeles

Nice stay near downtown Los...

Liked: We liked that it had a refrigerator and coffee maker and that it was walking distance to little Tokyo, Union Station, Angels Flight, etc. We were also very grateful that we were able to do early check-in at 1pm. The Japanese Garden is also nice. We also used the parking, even though it was $51/night we were grateful that the car was safe there.
Disliked: There was police, ambulance and helicopter noise at night. I would recommend earplugs if you are a light sleeper.
