Still love the bars here and the hotel staff are great. Hate the valet charge, though. Try and find street parking at a meter nearby.

This hotel is amazing. The rooms are chic and very modern. Not only are the beds super comfotable but the lounge downstairs is great, too! Not only can you relax in the room but you can also go to the Blue Lounge and relax on a nice sofa and have a cocktail. Great place to go dancing on the weekends! Pros: Comfortable beds!

Have stayed there several times and The W always takes great care of their guests. The W stands for "whatever whenever" and they really mean it. Anything you could want, they can most likely take care of for you. After a concert one night they made an In-N-Out Burger run for us. AWESOME!!! Pros: A great place to stay!

My friends and I have gone to the W's "Movies in th Backyard" on Sunday nights a couple of times, and I have to say I really enjoy the W. Great bar, great atmosphere, and what a cool idea to show movies out by the pool, definitely a great way to relax before the work week starts. I'd definitely recommend checking it out.

They, by far, have the most comfortable beds. I was blown away. I'm a local in LA, and my husband & I just wanted a getaway for the night. We went & had a romantic dinner, then went back to the room. As soon as I put my head down on that bed...I didn't want to move or get out of it. I had the best night sleep. I actually slept in til 10am, which is a big deal for me, as I wake up at 6am every morning, no matter what. Would highly receommend this for anyoe wanting a great nights sleep! Pros: GREAT BEDS

This is the worst hotel I have ever been to ... I rented a mega suite for NYE, but never made it in because they don't allow ANY alcohol to be brought in. This wasnt posted anywhere on the website or in the hotel, but they wouldnt allow us in after seeing it being unloaded. They also would not allow any guests other than the 4 sleeping in the room to visit on New Year's before the party, even though the suite was 1400 square feet and I had already asked this specifically on the phone. I had to argue for 30 minutes just to get my $1000 refunded by the same manager that I talked to when I rented the suite and told him I wanted a room large enough for a small and intimate new years gathering. I also got an earful of rude, age biased slurs and resistance from an over-compensating, uneducated, annoying, fat, security "guard". This was all after buying 8 tickets to the event at the hotel bar and being charged twice for the same drinks ($400 x2) Bottom line, the place is beautiful, but if you want any service, understanding or appreciation after spending that much money for a suite, try any of the other 100 hotels within 10 miles. Specifically, the Four Seasons or the Royal Palace of Westwood. I will NEVER stay at another W. Pros: Pretty Cons: Terrible staff

Worst customer service out of any hotel I have ever stayed at. Super expensive and you get nothing for what you pay for.

I have never been disappointed by any W Hotel around the world. I don't care if they are faking it -- but they know how to take care of their dog-loving guests. Nearly every detail is taken care of from water bowls & treats near the taxi stand outside to the comfy dog beds and goodie bags given to the dogs. The best part is that every staff member from the front desk to the housekeepers all genuinely appear to love dogs and always have a friendly smile or petting session for your dogs. The dog-friendly part is just the cream on top. All Ws are beautiful. Modern, clean and always an inspiration for fans of contemporary design. Pay the little extra money -- it is definitely worth it! We have stayed at the Westin, Four Seasons and other luxury hotels -- this is by far the best. If traveling with our dogs, or without, we will never stay anywhere else. Pros: Everything is gorgeous, staff is fantastic, dog-friendly. Cons: It's a stereotypcial L.A. scene, but expected. Stay for the hotel.

W is in more of a business area or school with UCLA being around the corner, but the pool is great. At night there are all the bars and it is a nice scene. The rooms are their pretty standard ones but seem to be a bit larger in size to the ones I've stayed in NY.
