    Groovy, Baby!

    My family loved this 1970's themed hotel in NoHo! The common areas and rooms were newly renovated and beautifully maintained, and the hotel does a great job of having a 70's theme but not looking dated. (We kept joking that we felt like we were in an Austin Powers movie.) The service was excellent, as the front desk was super friendly and helpful, and we also really enjoyed The Front Yard restaurant's daily breakfast as well as casual food by the pool and hot tub (which were great). We also took advantage of the free shuttle to Universal Studios, which saved us a bunch on parking. Overall we had an excellent stay and I very highly recommend this family-friendly and shagadelic hotel!

    THE BEST KEPT HOTEL SECRET IN THE VALLEY.......

    The Garland Hotel is a "JEWEL" in the Valley and actually anywhere.. We love staying there. it's immaculate, has a fabulous staff, great amenities, the food is fantastic, cozy and it feels like HOME....We are done with large corporate hotels that do no care.. If you call , they answer immediately, whether it's for a pillow, or more coffee they send it right up. There is not another place we love more than the GARLAND. How did we not know about this place sooner, we lived in Studio City for over 40 years.. Keep up the GOOD WORK, YOU'RE SLAMMING IT !!!!

    A Wonderful Stay!

    The Garland is like an oasis! It is on a beautiful piece of property, nestled between Studio City and North Hollywood. It is a wonderful vibe and the design is so fun and whimsical! Our family of 4 were there for a week for a holiday to explore Los Angeles tourist sites! We stayed in one of the rooms in the Cortola with 2 queen beds, overlooking the garden and the Los Angeles River. We had a rental car, and could easily get to so many places! The Garland has so many friendly staff members with great advice about how to best see their vibrant city! And their many activities and fun events for guests made our stay extra special! Our teens loved their large gym and my husband and I enjoyed drinks by the pool and happy hour in the bar at the hotel restaurant, The Front Yard!

    FAVORITE LOS ANGELES HOTEL... BY FAR!

    Overview: We have stayed at The Garland many, many times over the past few years, both for business and for pleasure, both as a couple as well as in groups and we are always impressed, refreshed, relaxed and every time excited to return. Staff: Friendly, helpful, always appear to be enjoying their work at the Garland. From the doorman to the front desk to the bar / restaurant everyone feels as if they genuinely care about your experience. Rooms: Beds are incredibly soft, rooms are always spotless, they have double glass windows and balcony doors so the noise is minimal and the doors and walls are thick so you don't hear your neighbors partying. The decor is unique and the amenities lovely. (Coffee in the room, soft spotless towels and bedding, closets, safe, music set up, excellent mini-bar, etc) Food / Drink: Pool Bar is relaxed and fun, Rose all day is a favorite of ours. The Front Yard - for breakfast / lunch or dinner is as delicious as it is fun, and a fantastic platform for people watching. Pool Area: Fun and trendy, separate area for kids and adults - for those having a kid free stay you won't be splashed during your romantic jacuzz time Activities: The Garland makes a big effort to hold events and activities for their guests (and locals!) From daily yoga to weekly movies at the pool to holiday events, you can always find something to do during your stay, well beyond the "normal" hotel basics. Hotel Atmosphere: Laidback but with an ultra hip and cool LA vibe. Nothing pretentious or annoying about the hotel, staff or otherwise. Its beautifully decorated with personal touches that are unique to the family who owns and operates it. It feels chic and homey at the same time. Bonus: BEST GIFT SHOP EVER. From local wines and beer to unique gift items for every member of the family, this amazing shop has been curated perfectly to bring a piece of your LA vaca home with you. Bonus Bonus: If you are heading to Universal, there is a free shuttle from the garland saving you $$$$ and the pain of parking! We have never used it but we know it is there and see it taking people who look happy and not stressed over driving in LA.
