What can I say? The magic castle hotel was a perfect little oasis. In the middle of Hollywood! The staff were simply amazing and helpful at any time of the day or night. It was a great place for families, as well as for couples.

We will definitely stay here again. Both Nicks at the front desk were outstanding and made our day of travel delays and stress melt away. The free snacks were a lifesaver, the room was small but clean and adequate, and although the shower in our room was pretty wonky the hospitality made up for it in spades.

We really enjoyed staying here. The kids loved the free snacks, ice creams and drinks. Breakfast was good too. The room was spacious. Decor a bit old and there was a lot of street noise.
