Booked this with airline points - it was a good deal, even better if you upgraded to a suite, which are quite large. First, the not-so-great: valet parking (the only option) is $55 a day, which is nuts even in LA. And like many Kimptons, the once cool design is a bit faded. But to a person the staff were over and above: friendly at check in and…

First, the not-so-great: valet parking (the only option) is $55 a day, which is nuts even in LA. And like many Kimptons, the once cool design is a bit faded. But to a person the staff were over and above: friendly at check in and when I was about to buy a beer they reminded me that there was a free wine tasting going on. The the bartender ( maybe Megan) was super friendly and helpful, The next morning Christophe was even better at breakfast, which is one of the better priced (a full continental breakfast was $12) in LA, with a beautiful hidden rooftop view of the Hollywood Hills . Staffing made this a worthwhile stay.

Stayed for one night while visiting Hollywood. We booked the Hollywood Suite, which was a beautiful room, spacious, with a lovely modern bathroom. We had a view looking out to the Hollywood sign however this would have been better if the windows were not filthy. The carpet also had a number of stains however despite this, the hotel and the room were still lovely and I would probably stay again. I would say though, for the price of one night in the suite, I would have expected a complimentary mini bar. This was not the case and the mini bar was incredibly expensive. We had breakfast the next morning on the rooftop which was lovely, staff very friendly. Overall. A very nice hotel but I feel for the cost, there are better options in Hollywood.

Pros:

- The hotel is reasonably new/updated and the decor looks great. There's a nice second floor lounge with coffee/tea and it's nice to sit someplace that isn't your room.
- Super convenient location, for sure!
Didn't have any major issues, though there was a hiccup or two with housekeeping. (Thanks to Cesar for resolving the issue.)
I will say that if you can avoid it, don't get a room facing Wilshire. It's noisier when your windows are above the street. (I think almost all of their rooms do NOT face that way but if you're a light sleeper, ask them.)

Nice room and rooftop bar

We had a pretty good stay here. Our room was a nice size as we used an IHG suite upgrade.

We had a pretty good stay here. Our room was a nice size as we used an IHG suite upgrade. Location is convenient; not a lot immediately around in terms of restaurants but close to several museums and The Grove shopping and dining area as well as an easy Uber ride to Beverly Hills. We enjoyed breakfast on the roof as well as happy hour appetizers and a drink one evening. Good view and food.
On the “needs improvement” side, our room windows were very dirty, bathroom lighting was poor and the wine at the complimentary wine hour was pretty wretched. I don’t expect much for free but it was worse than airline wine.
A decent choice if the mid-Wilshire area works well for a stay.

Nice hotel on Wilshire
Jun 17, 2024SFTravelrSan Francisco, California
It doesn’t look like much from the outside and the lobby isn’t much, but the Kimpton Wilshire is a really nice hotel. Our room was decent sized and quiet. Love the rooftop pool, it’s such a nice place to have breakfast, and our server was friendly and fast. Also enjoyed the cold brew in the coffee room. Big shoutout to Carolina at the front desk…

Love the rooftop pool, it’s such a nice place to have breakfast, and our server was friendly and fast. Also enjoyed the cold brew in the coffee room. Big shoutout to Carolina at the front desk who was so helpful about a couple of special requests, as well as Luis from Signature Parking, which handles the valet service. Only gave it four stars as the pool got really crowded with people who were not hotel guests. They showed up early and parked themselves on the lounges all day so we never got to use them. Perhaps they couldn’t aside a few for guests? The music is really loud too, which is too bad as the pool would otherwise be a great place to chill.
