Palihotel Culver City

We just checked into the Palihotel. I had asked for a quiet room but it is not--there is an open air restaurant in the back with a lot of happy people chatting and having a great time, meanwhile the sound is coming up to our 3rd floor room. The room is tiny and was designed by someone who must have worked in model homes (where all the furniture is scaled down to make the room seem bigger). For instance, look at the desk--it's as deep as two coffee cups and has those, a coffee maker and a dial telephone so there is about a 12" x 12" square space to put your things. The cute little chintz armchair and table is tiny--see a picture of my husband sitting in it. There are no luggage racks, very little space on the bathroom counter to put one's toiletries, hair curler, etc. and sharp corners to the bedframe to snag your ankles. The restaurant doesn't open until 8 am which seems unacceptably late for anyone on business. I do not recommend this hotel.

I absolutely loved this hotel. It was the perfect location for me and a great value too. It was a 20 min drive to LAX, so close to a lot of touristy spots, and there’s a coworking space a 5 min walk away for those who need that (I did). I also loved that there were a lot of restaurants within walking distance from the hotel - so if you don’t rent a car (like me) you have a lot of options without ubering! The rooms were so cute and clean and just what I needed. The staff was amazing. I want to shout out Bryan and Davyd. They were so helpful and courteous and just very kind!

Janice checked me in and she was an amazing face to see upon my arrival. Then when I left she made sure to thank me for my stay and wish me safe travels. Truly a delight. The fresh squeezed orange juice was also amazing!

I stayed here while working out in Culver City for a few days. The hotel is super cute and quaint. The stay is so friendly and immediately makes you feel welcomed. Davyd checked me in and was so wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and took such good care of me. Every time I needed anything he was so kind and pleasant. Also the restaurant next to the lobby was delicious and wait staff was also so kind and attentive. Would definitely recommend staying here. Thanks Davyd and staff for the great experience!

Great boutique hotel, and an awesome location. Be prepared to pay $50 a night for parking as street parking is permit only in the neighboring blocks from the hotel. lively restaurant at the bottom of hotel. safe neighborhood for solo female travelers. would highly recommend.

Older hotel and rooms smell like it. I was placed next to the garbage cans on the first floor, so had both late night noise and early morning noise. Curtains don’t block out light. $13 for a bottle of water in the room.

The hotel is amazing and everything was wonderful, had a great experience, and the staff was very accommodating and helpful!

Great place to stay in a very walkable spot with a ton of food and drink options, and a wonderful staff. Thanks!
