I booked an overnight stay at Hotel Palomar LA for a romantic Valentines weekend and the staff at the hotel were more than accommodating and attentive. I had reached out to the Concierge, Hami, for some special requests and they were fulfilled to perfection by him and his staff. Not only did they help me make the weekend extra special,... More

Stayed there for 6 nights in early February, and I could not find a fault with this Hotel, its comfy, its plush, its upmarket without being snobby, the food is good, the rooms are great, the facilities excellent, including a great outdoor heated pool with seating area and log fire, the wine hour and early morning coffee in the lobby...

What I expect from a Kimpton property, and that's a good thing. Staff friendly and efficient. Accommodations nicely designed and clean. Evening wine reception was appreciated, as well as morning beverage service in the lobby. We avoided the valet parking cost by finding street parking a block away, but pay close attention to neighborhood parking signs. We didn't take advantage... More

My favorite hotel is the Palomar in Chicago, so my expectations were set before I got here...I usually LOVE Kimpton properties...they are a splurge for me...but this one isn't great. The staff is friendly, coffee is good...room is clean...but it doesn't feel like a kimpton. We stopped in the bar last night for a cocktail and dessert, and like everything... More

Hi Stephanie, First I just would like to sincerely apologize for your experience at our bar. We like to pride ourselves on being very clean, courteous, and aware of our guest surroundings while dining with us. Having that said, receiving a dirty menu and not having the space cleaned before you sat down are absolutely unacceptable. I have already begun... More

I stayed at the Polamar for my 3rd time in as many years. I was in a suite - not the top suite, but the only difference is the lack of a jaquizzi in my suite type. The be is very comfortable, the high speed internet works well - and the fitness center if fine. They could use some heavier... More

Dear Knightline, Heavier weights? I'm guessing you are pretty strong! As noted, we have a pretty diverse and well equipped fitness center, however for the absolute hard core and superhuman types like yourself, we can happily send you to Equinox which is just a few blocks away. We hope to host your stay in Los Angeles again soon and please... More

This is a gem of a hotel in a great LA neighborhood. The rooms are well appointed and quiet. The staff was terrific, accommodating and friendly. Every employee without exception made me feel like I was at home. This particular Kimpton felt more like a high end apartment building than a hotel, which makes sense as it is surrounded by... More

This was the perfect weekend getaway-- even for someone who lives in LA! Our Vista Suite was absolutely beautiful with the biggest jacuzzi bath I could have dreamed of. The view was unreal, the staff was lovely, and when one of us wasn't feeling well in the middle of the night we were even able to ask for a humidifier... More

Stayed in this hotel because of it's close proximity to UCLA. We were given a room on the 19th floor with a spectacular view. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. Loved the wonderful shower head and the fashionable fixtures in the bathroom. The hour long "free wine" in the lobby was a great way to cap... More

Hotel was great.. Check in was quick and easy, rooms was modern and clean.. The service was great except for the wake up call that came at 5am instead of 8am, but they quickly compensated for that by comping the valet parking for the night. I would definitely stay here again! More

Lobby, bars, service up to the usual Kimpton standards but the bathrooms seem in need of a refresh. The toilet flush is loud enough to startle anyone in the bedroom, hot water takes quite a while and the showers are quite antiquated. More
