    The property, staff, amenities, and location all made this a great hotel stay for my family. I would absolutely recommend The Garland for anyone visiting Universal Studios, Burbank, and Hollywood.

    The Garland is a wonderful and charming little hotel. The pool was great - never too busy but always happening. There were plenty of free activities that were not cheesy and fun for adults and kids alike. Food and staff were great. Room clean. I would stay here again without question.

    We got connecting rooms. Staff was really nice and this is the first hotel that actually have fridge that keeps stuff nice and cold. The food from the restaurant was pretty good. Shuttle service was easy to use even with strollers. The kids room was supposed to be a king bed but felt more like a full size bed. In the other room there was an area in the room that smelled like vomit but otherwise seemed very clean. Also, was very odd when I tried to take a nap I put the do not disturb sign on the door and to my surprise got an employee knocking just to say they had a dnd (do not disturb) policy that if that sign is on the door someone needs to be in the room. Very strange. Was not fun getting woken up for that. At night it was extremely loud. Anyone in the hallways or loud vehicles on the freeway.

    Our stay was amazing! Booked 2 rooms for our family vacation and both rooms were very clean and well kept. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash were provided as well as bar soap and bar face wash. All rooms have small balconies and the fridge has a few drinks upon arrival. The property itself is beautiful and has a modern/retro vibe. Parking is convenient and there is a shuttle that is for hotel guests that takes guests to universal studios and other locations. The employees were also all so helpful and make you feel welcomed! Highly recommend this hotel if you ask me.

    If you come here definitely give yourself some time to enjoy the actual Hotel it's not worth the money if you're just going to sleep here. The Front Yard, the onsite restaurant is fantastic, the little poolside bar is nice, they have little nooks and places to hang out and chill the pool is great. Have been there a few times and will definitely be returning. The only thing I'm really disappointed about is that parking there has gotten ridiculously expensive it's $50 to park your car it used to be like 25 I think. Valet is $55 and they encourage that. I would have liked to have known that in my booking I do not recall that that was in my booking.

    We had an amazing stay at the Garland! The rooms were really nice and clean, the beds were VERY comfortable and we loved having a patio. The pool area was great and it was so cool that they hosted outdoor movies. The only complaint is that we were facing their event center and the first night we were there, there was a reception and it was pretty loud. We had come back from Universal to nap, before going back out and couldn’t, and the next night was a wedding, and it was also very loud. We loved hearing the music and fun for a while, but the late night partiers kept us up later than we wanted. Very cool that they had the free shuttle to Universal!

    we like the hotel and the staff, what was really annoying was in addition to the fee for the hotel, there was a $50 day on-site parking fee, and even though we’re allowed in and out parking, it was considerably more than all day parking if you were just visiting for the day.

    I absolutely love everything about this property. The Old Hollywood decor is beautiful, but what do you expect it is Beverly Garland! The staff is amazing the layout features a very relaxing courtyard and courtyard bar, the pool and spa are so inviting I could have relaxed out there all day! My room did have a balcony overlooking the courtyard, which was very nice. The Front Patio restaurant is awesome. If you are going to Universal this hotel features an adorable trolley shuttle. If you’re a Bravo fan you are just an uber away from The Valley “Ventura Blvd” and Sur Restaurant West Hollywood. We ate at Casa Vega, it’s hard to get a reservation so we took a chance and sat at the bar. Great Food Great Staff. I will definitely stay here again

    The Garland is my go-to place to stay when in Los Angeles, Studio City, and North Hollywood. It has a fun, laid-back atmosphere and good family vibes. The restaurant is excellent and a go-to place for many locals. Clean rooms and great staff. Nightly parking is a bit over the top, but plenty of free street parking if you can walk a few blocks...

    I hesitate to rave too much about this place because I don’t want everyone knowing about it. This was my second visit and I love it all! The staff are so nice and helpful, the rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, restaurant is delicious, trolley to Universal is great, and the gift shop has unique California finds. My favorite is the poolside movie nights. What a wonderful way to wind down the day by getting a drink and sitting in the hot tub to watch a movie and chat with new people. Can’t wait for visit 3! Love it all

    The property is beautiful! The rooms were quiet and clean and beautifully decorated. Very cozy. Our experience with the front desk staff during check-in was extremely disappointing. My son had gotten to the lobby before me (the reservation holder). I think he was attempting to take care of his portion of the parking fee. When I walked in the door the woman doing the check-in announced to me from across the room that she "needed my I.D." Not hello or welcome or a smile. Didn't wait for me to cross the room and come up to the counter. Just basically yelled "I need your ID" It was shockingly rude. She was abrupt and unfriendly during the entire check-in. Then when we got to our rooms (I reserved 3 rooms for my family), one of the room keys didn't work. My son had to go back to the front desk to get the issue resolved and the other lady that was there was just as rude, talking to my son as if the room key not working was somehow his fault and didn't apologize for the inconvenience/mistake on their part. He left frustrated and a little stunned. We are not a family of complainers or at all high maintenance. The (evening) check-in front desk staff experience was jarring to all of us. The front desk gentleman that helped me during check-out, however, was great. Very friendly and helpful and that at least was a good experience on the way out.

    We stayed in this area strictly to go to universal. I read all the reviews and decided to save a few dollars and stay a little further from the park here. Well needless to say I wish I would have just stayed at one of the closer to universal hotels. We got a family room at the garland. Which wasn’t very well described on the websites. It is a little nook with bunk beds and no door. Not very useful for getting kids to bed earlier and having a dark separate space for them. There was also no night light or natural way for them to have a light if they got up at night. The staff kept coming into our room while we were gone. Parking was also $50/night which I also don’t feel like was well advertised. They’d pick up towels and always close the blinds. It kind of caught us off guard that they were in our space so much but not really an issue I guess. The bathroom had a frosted glass sliding door and was right at the head of one side of the main bed. Odd. Definitely woke that person up anytime someone used it. All in all just a bit of a disappointment. The room was still very expensive despite all of this (~$400usd/night with taxes and fees and parking). For that price I am wishing I had stayed at the Hilton or Sheraton right at the park.

    Spent two nights here. The hotel is charming. Our coffee machine filter was dirty and had weird fuzz in the water compartment. I asked to replace it the first night and no one arrived. Asked reception for it the next morning, was promised it will be taken care of, but nope. Replaced on the third morning. Otherwise, it was a good stay. Nice to have a balcony to some trees.

    The stay was amazing - love the hotel and the facilities but the lobby bar and seating area was significantly understaffed at peak service times. It took 90 minutes for us to get dinner one night and that was only after my husband went into the bar and placed our food order. One person working the tables (even with a manager bussing) is terrible for the staff and the customers! I would consider implementing an order system that has guests place orders using a QR code for the table and having staff handle greeting people and delivering orders to tables. Room, decor, staff were great and vibes were high but food service needs work.

Additionally, there was a rattle coming from the bathroom for two nights before it was fixed, but the rattle started to come back on the day i left. Finally, the room was not restoked with waters each. I had to call and I think that should be standard. For the price, just not up to speed.

    However, the hotel also hosts business events, which can create noise issues. During our stay, an event in the theater became disruptive. When I mentioned this in their post-checkout survey, the hotel responded that they "did not expect it to become loud until midnight." For a family with a young child, this was problematic. Even in the "quiet" section of the hotel, the noise kept us awake. I'd still recommend this hotel, but advise checking the event calendar before booking. If noise is a concern or you're traveling with young children, request a room away from the courtyard and pool area.

    Everything was amazing and as I expected. Service was very good. The grounds were well kept and clean. There was a 3 day rain storm but the hotel did its best to make sure the rain did not impact us walking through. The wi-fi went out and the trolley died but the front desk, Jasmine did a great job to remedy the situation and we were happy with that. The room was exceptionally clean. Valet was on top of their game. We had adjoining rooms and it was perfect for our family. I was able to request a microwave for an additional $10 a day and it was worth it. Christmas Buffett at the front yard wars exceptional and management did a great job to add our additional family guest that we invited last minute. Food at the front yard was amazing. In room dinning was so fast and there was a wine bottles that was very thoughtful.

    Hotel was a mix of vintage and new. Stayed overnight and it was very pleasant.

Probably wouldn’t have been a big deal if it wasn’t raining.

    Fantastic hotel, great staff which is willing to share insider tips on where to go in greater LA area, cozy rooms with balcony. Rooms have minibar but there is also a Ralphs in 5 min walking distance. The Garland offers parking to a cost, but there is free parking across from the hotel on Alta Vista road (read the parking restrictions carefully). Pool has 2 hot tubs, one for adults-only. Bar opens to the pool, take advantage of Happy Hour. Diverse entertainment program: live music, movies at the pool etc. Free shuttle to Universal studios. Great restaurant attached to the hotel and I can only recommend the breakfast buffet. But there are also dining and breakfast alternatives in walking distance. It was our first, and not last visit to The Garland. Highly recommend!

    Only complaint was ordering the continental breakfast on Monday morning. It came with a pastry and a muffin. The muffin was ok but the pastry was hard and tasted like it was leftover from the weekend. Our cooked breakfast the day before was nice but they had no business serving that hard old pastry! I didn’t complain because I didn’t have the energy to deal with it.

    The Garland was a great home base for our trip to Hollywood and Universal Studios. The hotel amenities are lovely. Our room was clean and comfortable.

    The hotel is not that bad as far as comfort.. But I wouldn’t return , first I paid a different price then my registration price which was odd but I didn’t make a big deal seeming it was only $14…. The room they gave me was near a hall which wasn’t an issue until Saturday came and the guest of a wedding started flooding the parking area making it almost impossible to find a park near my room. The icing on the cake was Saturday night when my family and I completed our night at universal studios and sat at the shuttle stop in the night fog and cold with my 2 yr old and other 3 kids including the birthday girl and my husband for 2 hours waiting for pickup. No phones were being answered and my kids were so exhausted as well as freezing . We were waiting as well as a couple who were the ppl to let us know that the hotel said we needed to find our own way back because the trolly broke down….We had no idea what to do seeming the hotel was a 35 min walk , a Uber would have been extremely expensive especially for the 6 ppl in our group so all of us had to walk back to the hotel in the cold nightly fog down a hill very dangerous. I don’t understand how this was possible, no back up plan, apparently this is common because according to an unknown source this happened before . This property makes too much money to not maintain their shuttle service .., do not recommend

Staff is always amazing but this time around David helped us check in and he was fantastic. We loved him! Our only drawback this time around we stayed in a suite, and it was a bit disappointing. It was much smaller than we expected, and the bathroom situation was odd. The bed was pretty firm but that's personal preference. However, neither of those things will stop us from staying here. We'll be back soon!

    Beautiful hotel, very clean. Only suggestion was wishing they had a microwave. Other than that I highly recommend. Also maybe have the Universal Studios shuttle run every 30 minutes rather than every hour.

    The setting for the wedding and reception was beautiful. The staff were so friendly. Everyone we encountered was polite, welcoming and courteous. Everyone from the front desk to the servers at the reception to the groundskeepers to the housekeeping staff all had smiles in their faces and greeted us warmly. 100% would recommend to anyone.

    Rooms were clean. Staff friendly. Parking thou was an issue. We arrived back from a day trip on a Saturday night and there was no parking to be found. We had to exit and renter the area twice, and spent literally 20-30 min trying to get a spot. The rooms were not as insulated. We could hear the guests next door. Especially the screaming children. This is my second time staying at this hotel and I won’t be returning. The grounds are beautiful and kept clean. The area I feel is safe but not worth it when you’re paying a parking fee and still cannot find a parking spot.

    It was loud, you can hear footsteps, water, and conversations. There was a wedding on property that was extremely loud well past my bedtime. I was disappointed that there wasn’t a heads up about that, given I was there for work, I would have asked for a different room or chosen somewhere else all together.

    The property leaned into the vintage theme and the decor was representative of that. There was a cute hotel boutique and parking spots were fairly easy to find. The additional fees and taxes will definitely add up and the staff did not charge the correct room rate which took much longer than I thought it should to resolve. I’m hoping it will be reflected on my credit card soon.

    We really liked the design of the property and the 70s vibe. The rooms are standard updated. We could hear a repetitive mechanical noise from outside the room at different times of the day and night so we moved to another room where the A/C underperformed. Despite these problems, we would go again. Nice pool and great food!

    The hotel is undeniably charming—beautifully decorated, comfortable, and well located. However, it seems the management is trying to accommodate more guests than the space can comfortably handle, which impacted our experience at times. The pool area feels overcrowded when the hotel is at full capacity, and the same goes for the restaurant, making it difficult to fully enjoy the amenities.

    Loved the movie nights at the pool and live music. What a fun Friday night. Two suggestions- I wanted to order a fun dessert for my daughter from the Front Yard but the man on the phone said "there were too many options to list" and pointed me to the online menu which only has cookies and ice cream. We were in our bathing suits and it didn't seem appropriate to walk over to ask for a menu. The front desk didn't have a menu or know either. Also, a note for anyone booking for the Peloton- it is no longer there although it's listed on the Peloton hotel finder. Everything else was lovely and the room was perfect.
