Best Western Sunset Plaza - West Hollywood, USA 

Our family of four just completed a two-week California vacation that included two nights at the Sunset Plaza. We were very pleased with the hotel, and I agree with the positive TA reviews. We had a double-queen room that overlooked a lovely pool area that resembled a European inn's courtyard. The pool itself was refereshing. The hotel offered an excellent continental breakfast that included fresh pastries, bagels (I am from New York, and these were very good bagels), fruit, cereal and beverages, and employees replenished these items throughout the morning. Parking was plentiful in a secure garage and worth the $12 daily fee. The hotel was also well-situated for our tourist plans, in between Hollywood to the east and Beverly Hills to the west, and was within easy walking distance to some good restaurants, including the fun Saddle Ranch across the street. We had considered staying in Hollywood, but I am glad that we selected the quieter West Hollywood area. I would definitely return to the Sunset Plaza upon my next visit to LA.

The rooms were enormous, and we got two huge comfortable double beds. One corner had a kitchenette area that came with a fridge and sink. Bathroom was spacious too, with a nice Jacuzzi. And this was a standard room. Hotel was walking distance to Chateau Marmont, I highly recommend going there for celeb spotting and dinner. Food at Chateau Marmont is delicious as well. The Standard Hotel down the road is good for drinks by the pool. There were a few other cool bars within walking distance. Breakfast was OK, you got some pastries and boiled eggs. You need a car in LA though. You wouldn’t be able to get around or see the sights without a car, because public transport appears almost non existent. The hotel lacks dining and bar options, but this is not a problem at all because of all the other options nearby. Pool area is so picturesque with lovely d?cor and plants, and great for sunbathing. Pool itself was a bit small though. Our room had these double doors that opened up into the pool area which was nice, it made it not feel like a hotel room. We thought this was going to be noisy, but it wasn’t at all. Car parking was convenient, it was in the hotel basement.
