There is not enough words in the English vocabulary to describe the horrible way we were treated--and we're a return guests. This place has really gone in the dump since we last stayed in 2006! Yes parking is a nightmare, but what part of Westwood isn't, my complaints are with the horrible front desk staff. I was told after booking... more

I recently stayed in Westwood for 2 nights with my partner, on our extended trip around Europe & the USA. It was the end of the summer season & quietening down a little, but we were still able to visit a lot of the surrounding areas, & enjoyed ourselves a great deal. We booked our accommodation via the hotel website... more

I've stayed at the Royal Palace in Westwood on 3 occasions (interviews at UCLA Health Center, when looking for places to live, and during a recent apartment renovation). It's located in the Westwood Village, about 2 minutes south (walking) of the UCLA hospital and campus. I've stayed (and put up guests) in places that cost 4x as much in the... more

We stayed 2 nights in this hotel, and were very satisfied with the hotel. The rooms were the cheapest in the area, yet this place was NO thin-walled flea bag hotel. The walls were quite thick, thank you very much, I never heard any noise at night. The air conditioner pretty much drowned out anything. Our rooms did face a... more

This is an excellent option to stay in Westwood area of Los Angeles, great location, nice and clean rooms, very comfortable, gentle staff, fair prices (the best!), internet free. I was 9 days there and felt like home :) Highly recommended ! more

I booked this hotel for the night before my interview at UCLA. It's convenient to the UCLA Medical Center (just up the hill). I did not have a car, but from seeing the parking situation, only bring a compact car if you want to park. I was "upgraded" to a suite. The kitchenette had a fridge but no dishes or... more

Warning upfront: My rental car was broken into (window smashed) in the middle of the day while parked at the Royal Palace. Don't leave any valuables in the car while in LA-- they stole my GPS system. Police told me that that has been the #1 item stolen from cars. I think of Westwood as a safe city, but I... more

Inexpensive, no hassle check-in, free parking (but I'm glad that I was driving a smaller car), clean well-appointed room with microwave and fridge, free continental breakfast, free internet, and very convenient to everything in Westwood and the UCLA campus. I find it hard to explain the mixed reviews of it that I read at this site. No, it's not exactly... more

This location is GREAT!! Westwood is VERY safe and the area reminds me of the Village in NYC! Many, many restaurants and little eclectic shops abound. In addition, it is a 2 block walk to the UCLA campus. I would HIGHLY recommend this location, for the price it ain't the Beverly Hilton, but I feel the value far exceeds the... more
