Wilshire Grand Hotel - Los Angeles California
|
|
Bustling behemoth in the heart of downtown The Wilshire Grand is located four blocks from the Staples Center and Los Angeles Convention Center, and across the street from a Metro station with links to Hollywood and Universal Studios. Built in 1952, the hotel features standard rooms the size of small studio apartments, with retro-looking TV consoles, dressers, and other furnishings that are probably the real thing. Many of the 896 rooms come with a second bathroom and two closets. All have multiple phones (practically a necessity in these large accommodations), data ports, and game consoles. This 16-story property is a city unto itself, with vast public spaces, distinctive restaurants, boutiques, and a business center offering copious services. The Seoul Jung Korean restaurant specializes in delectable tabletop barbecue minus the smoke, and Point Moorea is one of the hippest tiki lounges this side of the South Seas.

AMENITIES & SERVICES
|
|
What to expect: The action-packed lobby and reception area bustle with an international melting pot of conventioneers, vacationers, and business travelers. Local businesspeople do lunch and dinner in the hotel's restaurants, and let their hair down after work in the popular tiki lounge. Dress up or dress down, and stay geared for some great people-watching. Clean, enormous guestrooms are reminiscent of 1950s L.A. residential-style living. Amenity highlights: The hotel boasts an eclectic group of restaurants and lounges. The reserved Japanese dining room offers both sushi and tempura bars; the elegant Korean restaurant specializes in barbecue sans the smoke; the Italian spot features traditional favorites; the casual grill is gussied in mahogany; and the snazzy high-energy tiki lounge provides a fabulous foray into South Seas kitsch. Insider tip: The Red Line at the Metro station across the street will whisk you all the way to Hollywood and Universal Studios for less than $3, roundtrip. No transfers (and no traffic!) required.
