Frommer's "Oscar-night headquarters for the frenzy of participants and paparazzi attending the Academy Awards in the Kodak Theatre next door... shares the same block as two of the city's most famous landmarks." Full review
Fodor's "Part of the massive Hollywood & Highland shopping and entertainment complex, this 20-story Renaissance is at the center of Hollywood's action." Full review
Oyster Upscale
"A large, midrange chain property that draws primarily business travelers, the Loews Hollywood lacks the glitz and glamour that Hollywood connotes." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Managed by Marriott, this art-filled high-rise overlooks Hollywood and Highland."
Rough Guide "The centrepiece of the Hollywood & Highland mall, with arty, boutique-style rooms and suites and a prime location in the heart of Tinseltown."
Star Service "Looking trendier than in the past, this is not a deluxe offering, though it offers solid standards all around; service is a strong point and staff are geared to upper-midrange business travelers." Full review
Gayot "This twenty-story building rises out of the Hollywood & Highland complex, which contains the Dolby Theatre (home to the Academy Awards) and an assortment of shops and restaurants."
BlackBook "Step one: Take over the former Renaissance hotel. Step two: Insert Exhale Spa. Step three: Throw in $25 million for a renovation. Results: A contemporary, 632-room hotel with oodles of style."

DK Eyewitness "Very close to the sand and Santa Monica Pier, this large resort makes children feel comfortable with activities, special welcome kits, and free stays for those under 18."
Star Service "Superior to Le Meridien Delfina, the former Sheraton, this is the queen of the middle ranks, for both business and leisure travelers." Full review
Gayot "Has a lot more to offer than simply its superb surfside setting, although the ocean views, sea breezes, memorable sunsets and private access to the beach are all pretty fabulous."
Zagat4.3
