Best for

It also suits theme-park and studio visitors thanks to its proximity to Universal Studios Hollywood and the Warner Bros. Studio Tour area.

Travel tips

Plan on driving or using rideshare to reach major attractions; many headline destinations (Universal, Hollywood, Griffith Park) are several kilometers away. If you’re visiting Universal CityWalk or nearby studio tours, aim to travel outside peak commuter hours since the hotel sits on a commercial road. If you prefer to cook or store groceries, take advantage of the communal kitchen and in-room minifridge.
