Oyster Mid-Range
"Like downtown neighbor Wilshire Grand, this towering hotel offers many perks for the price: pool, shops, large fitness center -- only with better views." Full review
DK Eyewitness "With about 20 eateries, pool, fitness club, shops, and a full business center, the landmark Bonaventure has more facilities than most small towns."
Rough Guide "Modernist luxury hotel with five glass towers that resemble cocktail shakers, a six-storey atrium with a “lake”, and elegant cone-shaped rooms."
Time Out "In the bizarre absence of a hotel near the Los Angeles Convention Center, this five-tower, 35-story, 1,400-room monster does decent business." Full review
Star Service "This Westin comprises five silolike towers, each keyed to a specific color, all in a 35-story clover-leaf pattern." Full review
Gayot "The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites Review: You've seen the exterior and lobby of this hotel in many movies and TV shows in the past couple of decades."
BlackBook "If you've been Downtown you've seen these rounded black glass towers. More stores and restaurants than the Magic Kingdom."
Zagat4.0
"Seemingly a "city unto itself", this "classy" "legend" "in the heart of Downtown" offers "so many things to do", from an indoor jogging track and full-service spa to 19 restaurants and bars."

Frommer's "The funky luxury oasis revels in its lore-filled past, yet it's hipper and more exclusive than ever." Full review
Concierge "Although it sits at the eastern end of the Sunset Strip, it's set so high up from the road and surrounded by such dense vegetation that it feels like a secret oasis."
Fodor's "Celebs like Johnny Depp appreciate this swanky hotel for its secluded cottages, bungalows, and understated suites and penthouses." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Its French-flavored indulgence may look dated, but this faux castle has long lured A-listers with its five-star mystique and legendary discretion." Full review
OysterUpper-middle-range
"As Hollywood's most notorious celebrity hideaway, the Chateau Marmont is the best spot for A-list sightings, especially in its two fantastic (yet reasonably priced) restaurants." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Famous recluses such as Greta Garbo holed up in this quirky French castle-style hotel, whose policy of discretion still ensures steady celebrity bookings."
Rough Guide "Iconic, Norman Revival hotel, which resembles a dark castle or Hollywood fortress and has hosted all manner of celebrities."
Travel + Leisure "Behind the Marmont’s lush, paparazzi-shielding hedges, discretion and privacy rule—a trait that has made it an infamous favorite of celebrities." Full review
Time Out "One of the many beautiful things about this Hollywood Hills fixture is that it's barely changed over the decades." Full review
Star Service "Overflowing with Hollywood history and patina, this hotel is filled with style and grace, something this town is in short supply of. " Full review
