Palihotel Melrose    

Staff, location, design, furnishings. Restaurant. Eggslut.

Liked it all.

I liked the design, the whole place is beautiful. I wasn't able to enjoy the restaurant, but it looked good. The beds were amazing. And the service was pretty good, they were really nice.

The rooms don't have a closet. (I know it's a small hotel, but still).

Location and design. TV was good.

Booked a family room with crib... crib was not ready and room was on ground floor, just across the window from the patio restaurant/bar tables... Staff on 4/14 at 8am was a self-confident not-too-smart gentleman who couldn't help us.

Great atmosphere and great style

Not being able to eat in the front outdoor area

Like the location

As always i seem to get very rude and noisy families from outside the US in the room next to me and walls are very thin. Parking is a bit of a hassle as well.

Loved the design of the hotel very funky and fresh. very impressed by the decor such an improvement from when the hotel used to be a hostel. Location is amazing.. Centrally located on Melrose Avenue surrounded by the boutique and street shops.

There were too many hidden holds on credit cards when booking, this is the only fault I have with the hotel. The fact that the hotel holds so much money on your credit card during your stay is excessive and each patron should be informed of this upon check in. Not informing us isn't good enough as surely it would be a reoccurring question amongst guests . This was a little disappointing

Very nice little boutique hotel, located in a hip quarter of West Hollywood, very close to Beverly Hills. Rooms are trendily decorated. The hotel has a nice cafe, and an 'Eggslut' truck parked putside for breakfast, which makes delicious, fresh and cheap egg dishes for breakfast. If you need a cab, don't wait for one, it may take a while, ask the hotel to book one for you at no extra cost.

No kettle in the room.

The staff was excellent, attentive to our needs and very friendly. An exlectic setting with beautiful room design that is very pleasing to the eye. Excellent food was a big surprise. Terrific location in proximity to Hollywood and downtown LA.

Location is great for where I need to be. Design of rooms/paint colors on walls is great. Design of building is great. Staff is great. Hot water is reliable.

The vent system between rooms allows sound to travel far too well. I've stayed at Pali several times and can always hear conversation and music in other rooms.

clean

no air con, rooms are a bit thin, can hear other people easily

Staff very nice Excellent restaurant Very confortable room

Absence of drawers to put my clothes

Sheets and shower head felt high end

Rooms tiny, no phone in room, charge a lot for parking

I had booked a room with two twin beds, ie, sleeps 4. When i booked in iwas given a room with 2 single beds. The room was totally awful,, so dark i could hardly see to unpack even when i had switched on every low-wattage light in the room. When i said to the receptionist that i had been given the wrong room, because it had 2 single beds, he lied, pure and simple. "Oh, in this country those are called twinn beds." (OMG I could NOT believe what i was hearing!) I pointed out to him that my booking sheet clearly said the room slep 4. (Was he thinking that people wld top and tail in a sinlge bed????) He somewhat begrudgingly told me he would give me 'a free upgrage' and showed me a much better room with one twin bed. I mumbled that this was Not a 'free upgrade' at all, but accepted this room because i was utterly exhausted and needed to sleep! After i left I came to thinking that in fact the hotel had still ripped me off because I had in fact paid for a much better room -- those with two twin beds, i'm pretty sure, are upsatirs and have a balcony. I considered making a formal compalint upon my return, but decided to let it go. But since Booking.com have asked, thats the treatment i got. I was lied to so that Palihotel could take the room i had paid for and give it someone else, while keeping the difference in tarrif. this is fraud (at the light end, i grant you, but fraud none the less. I wluld absolutely NOT recommend Palithotel to anyone, and would suggest that they do you no service as their booking representatives. (the other eception staff were very nice, however.)

The shower though the water did not drain well.

This "boutique" was depressing- dark and weird. Noise from the diners was loud. The lighting was terrible. Paint colors depressing. The skeleton pic that was framed was unnerving. I would neither stay or recommend to anyone. It was disappointing.

The location was pretty good. The staff was very friendly and attentive.

The air conditioner did not work in the room and it was quite warm. We had to leave the balcony door open to have air circulation. We asked to move rooms but were told the other rooms were the same. I wish there was a coffee pot in the room.

The staff were very accomadadting and friendly

The rooms didn't have phones, the Wifi didn't work in the rooms and the termastate was externally controlled so the room was absolutely freezing cold.

love the style of the decor and the location. the shower was also rockin'!

my room was cold and all the space heaters were already checked out. chilly night! also no trash can in the room and no clock, just kind of odd.

It was nice and smart

boutique design of hotel, the restaurant & food

Location.

Not worth the price.

Super nice design, with very helpful staff at a great location just off Fairfax and Melrose! Definitely on the funkier side and with a great café and restaurant.

nothing

Very cute and stylish

Location

Front desk staff were less than friendly. Renovation feels like lipstick job. Pretty obvious it was formerly a hostel.

The staff were lovely, the design and location great.
