There’s no Hollywood history without the Hollywood Roosevelt. In its early years, the hotel played host to countless icons, such as: Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable and Carole Lombard, among others. It has served as inspiration for filmmakers and creatives who have set their movies within this storybook backdrop. In 1988, famed British painter David Hockney completed a multi-million dollar mural on the bottom of the Tropicana Pool. Both the hotel and the pool have been designated Historic-Cultural Monuments by the City’s Cultural Heritage Commission.

I had been to this vintage hotel for the Day but never to stay. I have stayed in many boutique hotels and I have high expectations. The Roosevelt did NOT dissapoint. First the location.. you are literally right in the Walk of Fame and across the street from the Chinese Theater. A short walk gets you to Marilyn's star and the vinyl district on Sunset Blvd. It was a quick 22min taxi from the Burbank airport in Saturday traffic. I knew from other day trips to the Tropicana Bar that seating is gold so I rented a Cabana Poolside room. Glad I did. waiting for our room to be ready there was not a seat or stool or cranny to be had. We had to wait but it was worth it. our room had it's own cabana lounge bed hidden just behind the bamboo. A easy walk from door to pool. It felt so decadent and it should for the price. I really felt bad for anyone who didnt have this great room style that crowded Saturday. There was some kind of private party that day so the DJ was cranking some pretty suggestive loud music until about 7pm that day luckily we loved it. Do not stay here by the pool if you can not handle the party vibe. Room service was very fast and efficient but my $28 hamburger came with NO fries ( I did not see fries as a side on the menu , so I just assumed... bummer) pot of coffee, a mocha and juice came to $43...so it's pricey- when you can just get your butt out of bed and go to a cafe on Sunset Blvd. We went to the show "Down the Rabbit Hole" it was fantastic I hightly recommend although it is riskee .. but very delightful and such a great date nite to stay here at the hotel and go to this show without leaving the property. I love the later check out time noon- that gave us time for a morning swim. The room ammentities were thoughtful, playful and fun!! I kept the cards!! the mini fridge and bar were wonderfully stocked and reasonably priced. I will stay here again and ONLY in this kind of room. If you are waivering. It is So fun and the pool is wonderful but be prepared for some loud party atmosphere.. dont be a spoiled sport. I love love love the vintage feel of this place please keep it special!

I stayed at this iconic hotel. The service is amazing and a special shout out to Bryan at the front desk for making sure every little detail was handled to ensure that I could focus on my business and enjoy a little free time!

this elevator disruption during an art event the entire week has made it impossible to do my job and has completely spoilt my stay. In addition the pool area has been a complete mess with ZERO priority for your guests. It is honestly beyond me how you guys cannot inform the guests before booking of such disruptive event going on for an entire week and how can you not prioritise the needs of your guests who are paying so much money. I have never experienced such a disorganised, messy, chaotic and unprofessional set up. I have had clients waiting for 20/30 minutes to come up to my room for fittings. I am so very disappointed.

Great location, amazing archtecture but was charged incorrectly from mini bar, another guest using our room number for drinks at the bar, the mini bar issue still not resolved......check your credut debit card, also they had an event made to feel not welcome as wasnt allowed to walk through lobby to lift.
