Fabulous coffee lounge, and infused ice water available 24/7. Front desk staff and housekeeping very friendly and helpful. Hotel is in a great location, too. Patio room is great: outdoor space is nice. Yoga mat in room a bonus. Couple of days we left our room in early afternoon, and they still sent housekeeping to make up the room. Very happy with Hotel Wilshire.

The property exceeded our expectations. Nice room, pleasant staff, daily happy hour, nice restaurant and rooftop pool. Only thing, non paying people were allowed access to pool and often they occupied all the lounge chairs by the pool..for hours! Seems like they should be reserved for those of us who were paying customers. It was expensive to stay there (but I think that is the norm) but the location was terrific! We walked everywhere and did not rent a car.

Very clean room and great bathroom with separate tub from shower. Friendly, helpful staff. Poolside rooftop restaurant/bar with great view was the best! We had dinner Friday night poolside overlooking the Hollywood hills and then returned the next morning for breakfast. Good food! Restaurant staff was delightful. I would definitely recommend this as a great place to stay. Only thing I wished for was a stationary bike on premises, but they do have an association with a gym a few blocks away. Thanks for a great stay!

The restaurant was nice, location good, but oh my - not clean at all, by the way check the vents and filters, so much dust I haven’t seen in a hotel. Linen and mattress uncomfortably, people were nice, not that we interacted a lot, the little we did they were nice. Dirty and looks like a motel, linen and mattress super unpleasant, especially the linen. Surely not like a hotel at the rate you charge and we paid.

This was a wonderful hotel, I thought the rooms were huge, the bathroom was great, the rooftop pool was amazing, great location (we were visiting museums). While not the cheapest hotel room, it didn't break the bank! We thought it was great value for what you got.

we just stayed at the Kimpton and it was fine. the rooms were clean but a lot if the fixtures (lamps, desks, table) were a little run down. What was MOST infuriating was when when we checked out they told us that there was a $35 daily amenities fee tacked onto our bill. PLEASE NOTE there were ZERO amenities. when I asked the person at the front desk what that included he said coffee and the gym. Mind you I NEVER even knew there was coffee available, when we checked in NOBODY told us that. I even asked for a water bottle one day and they informed me that they only give them at check in. More Importantly THERE WAS NO GYM!!! you could go to the gym down the street, however it was pouring rain every day we were in Los Angeles!!!! Just be transparent in your rates, there is NOTHING more infuriating than hotels sneaking an extra BS cost onto the already high enough cost because they want to squeeze few more dollars out of you. Amenities fees are for hotels that OFFER amenities!!!

They were very confused and uncommunicative at check in- she took all my information, then told me to wait a minute and walked away into a back closet for almost 10 minutes. Multiple other staff walked to and fro and not one asked if I was being helped. She came back and I asked what was going on, and she said she wasn’t sure if housekeeping was done yet and couldn’t get an answer. I asked if I could go up and look or just drop my bags and change because I had to go to an event, and she said no and that’s not allowed. I asked if there was another room they could upgrade or downgrade me into, I’d be happy to pay the differences, and she said she didn’t think so. Then walked away again. It was all very confusing and the entire process took almost 20 minutes. It would have been less confusing if there was more communication or acknowledgement from the front desk that it was not a great experience.

As we were packing to go, we heard a series of earspliting alarms coming from inside the building. It seems that the fire alarm system was being “tested”. No warning was given to the guests and it was only 9 am. We remarked on this when we left and the staff issued no aplogy. Also, we had some really awful oatmeal in the rooftop restaurant.

The location and the staff were great. Super helpful and also available to questions. We had the Santa Monica suite and it was larger with a dining table and sink/bar counter on the side. They had a Fellow kettle which is nice touch. Overall the place was nice but only a couple of minor points. The lobby is really small. Think their focus is more pool/restaurant. Wish the room has some extra coffee mugs. It’s great to have all that counter space and kettle but no way to optimize it. A couple extra amenities like complementary tea bags and a couple of mugs would gave been nice.

The Kimpton is conveniently located near the La Brea Tarpits and multiple restaurants, is clean and comfortable and has pleasant staff, is pet friendly, and has a pleasant coffee/tea lounge area that is small children friendly. Limited pool hours—we were hoping for an evening swim with our grandchildren but the pool closes at 6 pm. As the pool is located within the roof top restaurant, that time makes sense, but it was still a disappointment as we arrived too late to get in any pool time that day.

A hidden gem of a property - I wish I could have stayed more than one night! I got upgraded to a suite, which made it all the harder to leave. Wonderful staff reception, lovely amenities, very comfortable bed with nice choice of pillows. I didn’t have time to take advantage of the nightly complimentary wine bar, but did enjoy a lovely breakfast looking out at the Hollywood hills. I was visiting a relative who lives close by and was delighted to have such a great hotel option in walking distance.

Room, staff, food, view, quiet. Walking distance to the Peterson Automotive Museum. Lacking signage on the building and loading zone was small. A few abandoned buildings making it look like a sketchy area.

The shower / bathroom in the room was nice. The photos of the pool are photoshopped to remove the signs that say it is 3 feet deep. The photos are also edited to make the roof patio look bigger than it actually is. The furniture was a bit dirty. You have to get in a separate elevator to get to the rooftop bar/ patio.

Love the comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. The hotel has a really nice coffee bar at the lounge that includes a Nesoresso machine. One thing I did not like is their small elevator that does not fit their luggage cart so pack lightly.. Also their valet only parking garage only allows one car to go in or out so you might have to wait for another car to pull out before you can enter.

My family and I had an excellent stay at the Kimpton Wilshire. We've stayed there many times in the past, but this was the best. Everything was in perfect working order, and there were no issues. No real noise or disturbances, although in the past, they occasional had private, rooftop events that can be extremely loud. Nothing

Terrific hotel in the mid city area of Los Angeles. Perfect if you want to go visit the Academy Museum. The rooms are modern and clean with great air circulation.

Hotel was fine- but not great. Room wasn’t ready until an hour after check in time, we put our card out to order breakfast in the morning and no one ever picked it up, so we were late getting out the door having to wait to order breakfast, room hadn’t had housekeeping by the time we got back at 3pm and they seemed surprised we wanted housekeeping to happen…Overall it was clean and located where we needed, but surprisingly as service.

The rooftop pool/restaurant is a nice feature as well. The drinks, food, and view are great, and LA people pay a lot just to have the chance to use this facility that guests enjoy, including a discount on the restaurant as part of the amenities fees. They could use nicer plants in their Plant Pals program, but that's nitpicking and overall it was a great stay, and the staff was quite friendly.

We were greeted at check-in by Carolina, she’s so personable! She definitely is an asset to Kimpton Wilshire! The restaurant staff was so friendly and fun! Sonny, Chris and Doug always went above & beyond to make us feel special! The pool & sun deck has such a chill vibe! The rooms are updated and comfortable with a wonderful view and mini bar! Will definitely be back and highly recommend this fabulous hotel!

Overall great service and experience but when calling front desk they wouldn’t answer and had to make several attempts to get someone on the phone. I also left an item behind and twice I have been told someone will call me back and no one did. My items has yet to be recovered. Amazing food at restaurant and beautiful pool area and views were awesome!

Way too many hidden fees. Resort fee, special worker tax, parking $55/night. The final charges were nearly double what I was told via Orbitz

Room was small, the front office staff overcharged us $1000. They did get it fixed but it was on our card and they told us that wouldn’t happen.

The hotel itself was amazing. Friendly staff, sizeable rooms (for LA), great restaurant and rooftop/heated-pool. My only complaint would be the neighborhood. I've stayed at a couple of Kimpton's in LA, and this would have to be my least favorite... only because of the location.

Construction and trash debris around town was not ideal but the facility itself was fantastic.

Pros: - The hotel is located in a safer neighbourhood relative to the DTLA area and provided easy access to our destinations. - Considering it is on a busy road, it was very quiet and we were not bothered by any noises. - Modern and well-kept. - Ample bathroom counter and shower space. - Has cute little rooftop bar with great cocktails. - Very polite valet service. Cons: - We stayed for 8 nights and were only given one pair of slippers. When we asked for a second pair, we were told they were out of stock and would have to wait a few days. A few days went by and when we asked again, we were told they didn't stock slippers. (??) - No pen/penpad in the room, and it was difficult to get in touch with the front desk when we needed assistance. - Room service removed our water glasses one day and left us without any. When we called the front desk to ask for some, they were delivered after two hours. - There are a number of hidden fees to watch out for, in particular the $46/night valet parking, as well as the $25/night service charges (which include WiFi). - In-room snacks were outrageously priced. - Staff were polite, but not extremely warm or helpful. Overall, was it horrible? No. However, I'm astounded at the level of service and lack of basic amenities for a hotel with a 4-star rating. Would not stay here again.

Beautiful hotel! Loves breakfast on the roof by the pool. Best breakfast in a long time.

A bit hard to see from the street with only a small sign on the building. Once arrived service, cleanliness and comfort were great.

Things were stolen from our room and things taken out of the mini bar while we were out for the day. The hotel charged us the mini bar consumption and didn’t seem too phased by the fact that our stuff went missing. Assured us that housekeeping was well trained.

Perfect place to stay if you've got a meeting at the Museum of Motion Pictures. Easy safe walk, but the Kimpton did provide me with an Uber. Nice touch.

Too many extra fees they they call convenience and luxury, but are just ways to get more money out of each stay.

Beyond that the hotel was clean, the roof top restaurant was the perfect place for a birthday brunch with amazing service. *that was the highlight of the stay.

Hotel staff was kind and accommodating. Property was very clean and modern. Think Europe/New York; rooms are not massive. Smaller in size but the modern look helps. Same with elevator. Very European in size. Think quiet and cozy Enjoyed the rooftop (great views) and the location of the hotel which is a close drive to Beverly Hills and West LA. Definitely would return.
