Best hotel for families!

This is a great place for families. My kids were so impressed with all of the free snacks and the friendly service. My son said that I couldn’t have picked a better place for us to stay. We had an event at the Hollywood Bowl, and it was an easy walk from the property. I wish more places would offer perks like Magic Castle. We will definitely stay there again. We loved our large apartment that slept 5.

A hidden gen

One bedroom was large and very comfortable. Bonus points for an amazing fold out sofa. The staff was exceptional! Love all the free amenities. Wonderful surprise. Best check in ever!

Wonderful hotel in Hollywood. Close to the Stars and Chinese Theater. But the best part was feeling like we went back in time when we walked into the hotel. Beautiful place. We would definitely stay here again!

8/10 Very good

Cool old Hollywood hotel

This is an OLD Hollywood hotel. There’s nothing wrong with it. The price was fair. The people that ran the place fell over themselves to help you. It is walking distance to the Hollywood Bowl which is why we were there. Found out the hotel can book you a reservation to the show at The Magic Castle if you are a guest. Otherwise you have to know a member of the club or know a magician, which I do not. I’ll probably stay here again just to go to the show-a bucket list thing for me😊.

What really makes the Magic Castle special is the staff. Rooms are great but the staff are spectacular. Free chocolate, sweets and ice cream for days as well! Best family hotel in LA.

All around great stay at this very cute hotel

All around awesome. If you like good vibes, amazing service and a kitsch environment..this place is for you. If you are after neutral tones, staff who are polite but don't talk to you, and a brand new hotel with no noise, then find somewhere else. On whole this place was super fun and heaps of well thought amenities and little touches. Thanks team Magic Castle! Ps. Their resident magician Alonso was amazing!

10/10 Exceptional

The Magic Castle Hotel was everything we could dream of and more! Upon arrival, the staff tended to up personally welcoming us with bubbly juice and champagne. Our Guest services assistant was very attentive to us upon check in and even offered us a room upgrade as hotel first timers. The property was beautiful, well maintained, and a kids and parents paradise. The amenities offered right down to the free snacks, and popsicle hotline were a what dreams are made of for a Hollywood adventure with kiddos! I highly recommend this hotel for anyone traveling to the area, it is very walkable and public transportation is easily available near by. Thank you to the Hotel staff for truly making our stay Magical in every way!

If you want to be in Hollywood the location is unbeatable. You can walk to all the famous sites. The property is old but charming. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. It's old and not very luxurious, but very charming. We enjoyed it very much.
