Top Central Malibu Hotel Reviews

Home2 Suites By Hilton Woodland Hills

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room with all Restaurants, Theater and Grocery at very closer proximity..."

The Sojourn Los Angeles - Sherman Oaks

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at The Sojourn was a comfortable one - the room & bathroom were clean, there was ample space for 2 guests, and we appreciated having a working TV and fridge. The bed mattress was a little springy, and the walls were a little thin (we could hear the people above us walking around all night, but we always use a noise machine when we travel, so it wasn't that bothersome), but not so bad that we couldn't sleep. We thought that this hotel would provide a continental breakfast, but they do not, they just have coffee, tea, hot chocolate and water in the morning (but the coffee was quite good and still very much appreciated!). The location of this hotel is great - lots of restaurants down the street, and we loved that there was a Whole Foods and shopping mall close by. For the cost of the booking and what we were able to do in the area, plus a couple restful nights of sleep, we would agree that this hotel provides great value for the cost of the stay. Thank you so much!"
