The rooms are small but nicely done. Comfortable beds for sure. No bathtub though. The bathrooms are great however. I could hear the couple above me in the morning. Not cool. I only stayed one night and got in late so I can't say much more. I did enjoy the snacks. Overall it was a good value and a nice,... More

Dear Traveler, Although you were only with us for a brief stay, I'm so glad that you found our bathrooms well designed and you enjoyed a peaceful night's sleep in our comfortable beds. I'm so sorry that you were then disturbed by noise from the room upstairs! I do hope that we will see you again and that you can... More

First of all I was somewhat reluctant to stay at Hotel Wilshire. While traveling alone I have specific requirements I like to fulfill. Namely, I like to be away from the elevators and noise and have a room with a nice deep soaking tub. Previous reviewers said the rooms were a little small So i opted for a larger room... More

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was on the small side, but plenty large for just me. One of the cleanest rooms I have had in recent travel. On the downside, it is a pretty dark room at night, even with all of the lights on. Also, the gym is too far away to be useful. Didn't have the... More

We recently spent three nights here. Conveniently located close to Downtown and West Hollywood. Valet parking is easy and they bring our car very quickly. The rooms are nicely appointed, as are the bathrooms.

Let me start by saying that I really appreciate the deep discount at checkout. Here's the list: 1) no gym, 2) no pay-per-view movies, 3) rooftop restaurant had almost zero indoor seating..smog with dinner, 4) Low volume on TV (controlled intentionally, because the walls are thin), 5) short seat toilet, 6) they put milk in my oatmeal in the morning,...

My recent visit to the Hotel Wilshire, LA was more than expected. It was a pleasure to celebrate with a dear friend at this fabulous boutique hotel. Everything was perfect!

If you're not here specifically for a convention or some type of business in the downtown area I would avoid this. the downtown lacks any type of life or atmosphere after hours or weekends. the hotel is nice and exactly what you would expect from kimpton. i would stay here again only if i had business obligations downtown and transfer...

Stayed for 3 nights on vacation. Location is not the best but quick to cab to Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Bed was moderately comfy, and robes were fun in animal prints. Pool was giant disappointment after staying at the W Westwood previously. Only a handful of lounge chairs and the few cabanas are for dining. Menu is extremely limited, not... More

My stay here was wonderful, I only wish it was longer. The hotel seemed very new with modern fixtures. The bathroom was incredible! There is also a fancy rooftop bar and restaurant that I didn't make it to. Room service was quick and the food was very good. I would definitely stay here again, minutes from LACMA and the tar...
