Culver Hotel

Stayed at Culver City, for our grand daughter’s UCLA graduation, and it was a delightful experience. This was like going back in time. During the Wizard of OZ, production, Culver hosted the Lolly Pops Guild munchkins. The unique charm is very well up-kept by all Culver Hotel employees, specially Diana Khngikian Manager and Executive Chef. Our stay here was simply delightful.

I absolutely loved my stay at this heritage hotel!! In the heart of Culver City, surrounded by bars and restaurants, it is one of the few walkable areas. The lack of a spa/gym/pool are compensated by the location, and its old world charm. I loved the food at their restaurant. Their afternoon tea on Saturday/Sunday is delightful. I stayed here for 4 nights/ 5 days. I loved my room on the 5th floor. The hotel provides daily cleaning service, and complementary water bottles (something I appreciate). The noise from the bustle around the hotel can be a bit of bother, late evenings. Next to the Culver Steps, with a movie theatre right opposite, and plenty of bars and restaurants in the vicinity - makes this a great hangout area. It is very lively most days, especially during weekends. I even took a tour of Sony Studio close by - an interesting experience. The "Platform" - walking distance from the hotel also has shopping/dining options. I would highly recommend this hotel.

I had one of the best solo trips staying here. All the staff I ran into were engaging and accommodating. Food and beverage service was a 10/10 as well as the ambiance and offerings. I will definitely be back. Who knew Culver City had so much to do!

Location and bar are beautiful. But if you have a car? Look elsewhere. Seriously. First, no place to unload when we arrived. Large truck in front for 45 minutes . We had to park in a parking deck down the street. When we checked in, we were told to bring the car back to unload (not sure how, as the truck still there) and take car to a Trader Joe’s parking lot. Ultimately, we schlepped the bags from the original lot to check in. At check out, no one offered to help load car or anything else, honestly. Teeny workout room, small guest rooms generally. Our daughter lives in LA, but this will be the last visit at this hotel for us.

Classic hotel in a vibrant, walkable setting. The rooms are well-appointed and the service was perfect. Last night, there was a community Christmas tree lighting in the public plaza just outside the hotel. Lots of shops and restaurants in the neighborhood.
