Best Western Plus Carlyle Inn - Los Angeles

I was very pleased and surprised to find a Best Western that looked like an expensive, modern hotel. The room was stylish, roomy, and very clean. Wifi was free and had good speed. The staff was very helpful. Parking is expensive and not a lot of spaces. Overall, a great place to stay. I would stay there again.

The hotel and its staff were amazing... very friendly and accommodating, parking was convenient, and the fact that everything you need is just a walk away was a bonus. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone planning a trip!

I checked in and then went to my room to discover it was being dried out with a carpet drying machine. When I went back to the lobby to tell them about this, they immediately knew why I had returned, apologized profusely, and upgraded my room because of the inconvenience. The rest of the hotel is maintained very well. This is the third time I've stayed […] here and will use it again if I'm back in the area. Read more

The hotel was clean and pleasant. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The rooms were small but comfortable. The hotel is on a noisy street and many of the windows open onto the courtyard, so you can hear people talking often. We were on the ground floor and heard the people above us most of the evening. The parking is limited and expensive. I […] thought the places was fine but over priced for the overall experience. Read more

Very nice hotel. In the Summer it would be a real hit with the internal terrace. Parking underground with gate made it feel very secure.

We expect to have a good night of sleep and was noise, you can hear the cars and trucks on the street very loud. Also the rooms doors are too close to each other and we had in front of us someone that keep going in and out shutting the door that we had hard time to sleep. Our room had a gift bag from the previous person under the table. I imagine they […] just clean the room as fast and without looking everywhere. Breakfast was horrible well you get what you paid for, its free but the simple and blend as possible. The other thing that was horrible its the internet, just because its free doesn't mean you will have a good service. I try to see my email and keep losing the signal in every email I open so give up. I really do NOT recommend this hotel. If you don't care about noise, breakfast and internet go ahead. The last thing don't trust on the photos the hotel looks so big and room look to have the double room but its the mirror to trick you for choosing this hotel. I will never go back again in there.

This is a small hotel with a 5 star rating. This hotel is nicely priced for it's amenities. The bed was very comfortable, we were very pleased that the windows opened, and that the heat could be adjusted by thermostat. The room itself was roomy and we did not have to travel far for food, shopping and areas we had planned on visiting in Beverly Hills. […] Thank you so much what a friendly and informative staff!

My friend and I stayed at the Carlyle this past weekend. We found the location to be convenient and parking to be easy. We were there for the night to see a play at the Pantages theater. We also enjoyed the walk to Rodeo drive. The bed was comfortable and the atmosphere was nice. The breakfast offered in the morning was good as well. I would stay here […] again. Read more

We were reading other reviews of hotels in the area. One particular review of a hotel of interest, suggested that we would be better off staying at a Best Western. So we took the advice and we were very happy we did! The hotel was exceptionally clean, the beds were comfortable and bathroom supplied with an array of toiletries ( Q-tips too!). The complimentary […] breakfast was filled with a number of appetizing choices. And had a nice inviting patio to relax. We will definitely stay again. Read more

We stayed at the deluxe King-size room, and it was nice and spacious. Different restaurants to choose from that are a walking distance. Starbucks and Walgreens were down the street. We would definitely stay here again!

Delightful property, excellent service and help; convenient to everything and met my needs.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel. The complimentary breakfast and wifi internet connection are great and very much appreciated! The staff was very friendly and even called a private limo service for my trip to the airport, instead of the taxi I requested. It was much cheaper too! Thank you for everything!! I will be staying here […] again!! Read more

We were well satisfied with this hotel. Only had breakfast one morning, but found it quite adequate with lots of seating, especially liked the terrace area. Wish we had been told about the underground parking when we checked in. It's a good alternative, but we didn't learn of it till later.

I needed a hotel near Cedar Sinai Medical Center, as my mother was in the hotel. I booked the hotel from my phone while at the hospital. I requested a hotel near the hospital with TWO beds. I was not able to check my email from the hospital till after I checked in that night. The hotel reservation was not correct. I was assigned to a small room with […] one queen bed. I asked to switch rooms but the hotel was not able to switch my room. The toilet was broken, and did flush. We had to wait the following morning got the comientary breakfast. I was disappointed with my whole stay. I really needed two beds, and was disappointed that we ended up with only one. Read more

The original room was too small and the staff helped us out by providing a small cot 12;00 midnight and put us in a larger room the next day. This is our second stay here in two months. Great place and reasonable price,for the area.

The location was perfect for our stay. It is a nice hotel and our room was very quiet.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room had no temperature control and was extremely noisy which consisted of slamming doors all night and noise from street, which sounded like a window was open. The TV was off, but the power source was on and was noisy. Beds had throw pillows which are gross as they probably are on floor and then to clean linen - usually not cleaned. Carpet was filthy […] and was gross to walk on. Read more

no fancy lobby, no room service or lobby bar but perfect for my buisness trip. great price and location, rooms very comfortable and well appointed. Staff could not have been nicer and more accomodating. Would hve liked a liked a little better equipped work out room but it was better than none.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Compare to other options in the area, the accommodations were surprisingly nice at a very affordable rate. We would stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel has some age on it - if you are looking for a luxury hotel that's close to everything, stay elsewhere. But if you are traveling for business and need a quiet place to get some work done away from the distractions of Beverly Hills then the Best Western Carlyle is a good option. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. The complimentary […] hot breakfast buffet is great - even better than I've seen in much higher end hotels. The room was clean and comfortable. My only complaint would be noisy plumbing and air conditioning, again, most likely because of the age of this hotel, but both functioned adequately. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for business travel or those on a budget. Read more

This was an easy-to-get to hotel right near my appointment the next day on Wilshire Blvd. Staff was great. The room was very nicely refurbished and comfortable. Nice to have water and coffee in the room, as well as free wifi. I would recommend this little hotel to anyone.

This hotel was great!! It was in a great location and very close to shopping and great food! The continental breakfast in the morning was fabulous. They had many great things to choose from including waffles and eggs!! I will recommend this hotel to others and will stay here when taking future trips to L.A. :)

This website indicates that the rooms can sleep 4 or 5 individuals. THIS IS NOT TRUE. If you verify with the actual hotel website you will find out that they only have ONE KING SIZE or TWO DOUBLES. ir your lucky you can fit 4 slender people. Aside from that it is a decent hotel.

The hotel was pretty good. We expected a crib in the room, but nothing was set up when we arrived. The staff quickly brought up some bedding, but it wasn't a real crib, but a pack-and-play. This worked out fine considering there wasn't much space in the room for a crib. Accomodations were pretty nice. The door to our room didn't open properly though […] and matenance never came to fix it. There is a nice atrium / inner courtyard garden at the hotel which makes it much nicer than it seems from the outside. We didn't try the hot tub, but it looked inviting. Read more

I was so impressed with this hotel, and trust me, if you knew me, you would say WOW First of all...from the beginning when we checked in til the end when we checked out (after 5 days), this place was amazing, Excellent 5 star customer service all around Beautiful clean and remodeled rooms Comfy beds with lovely linens and tons of pillows. Including […] Euro shams, pillows, and a body pillow! Great everything with a mini fridge (cleverly hidden in the cabinet), coffee maker and flat screen tv on the wall. Continental breakfast, my butt! This was a full on breakfast every morning they served REAL scrambled eggs,not powdered eggs, bacon, sausage or hash browns. There's ready made waffle mix with a belgium waffle maker that is so easy and fast to make. There's fresh fruits,cereal, granola, yogurts, bagels, toast, oatmeal, coffee, tea and cranberry as well as oj. There are great kosher delis and restaurants in the area and there is a Starbucks and a Walgreens just a 1/2 block away! I am telling you, I cannot wait to come back to LA, I have got a home away from home. Read more

Overall the Best Western Carlyle Inn was decent. Though a few things could be addressed in the room we stayed. First, the HVAC system was very noisy. The vent cover for the heat/AC was not secured tight and rattled. There was a very large stain on the sitting arm chair. This isn't such an issue, but one would think housekeeping might suggest replacing/re-upholstering […] it cause it just doesn't reflect care or attention to detail. Same with the HVAC. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

This was my third stay at this hotel, but the first since it became affiliated with a major chain (Best Western). Since my last stay in 2002 the hotel rooms have been redecorated and refurnished, with a flat screen TV, robes and other higher-end amenities. The full breakfast every morning has been retained in the room rate and is welcomed, as there […] are not many breakfast options within walkning distance. Location is a matter of need in LA, and I have stayed in other hotels depending on recommendations of people I was visiting or business needs.. The Carlyle was first recommended by family who live close by, but it is a great spot to stay for short drives to shopping in Beverly Hills, museums, movies and restaurants in West La, Culver City and Hollywood. The area is home to a variety of Kosher restaurants and synagogues. Pico and Robertson are both very interesting streets for window shopping, and the overnight parking charge is reasonable. A real gem in the area. Read more

We were very impressed with this small hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was ideal for our purposes. The rooms were a good size and had nice bed linens. There was ample parking at the hotel but we chose to park at the meters on the street which were free after 6:00 PM. I would highly recommend the Carlyle Inn to anyone who […] wants a central LA hotel. Read more

When I pulled in, I must admit I was a bit skeptical....neighborhood was OK but the building looked sort of dingy from the outside and the parking confused me a bit (was there a valet or not?). However, over the course of 5 days, I really started to like my little hotel :> Rooms were small but clean and comfortable - no noise and beds/pillows were […] good. The breakfast was nothing special but offered something to start my day with - coffee was decent. Nice little seating areas on the sun deck and courtyard area. Very convenient location and a nice price for an LA hotel! They should have some working vending machines with both beverages and food in them. Wi-fi signal was kind of weak. Read more
