The Roosevelt is Hollywood's only historic hotel still in operation today. It hosted the first ever Academy Awards in 1929 and has seen throngs of people - including celebrities galore - pass through its doors. The hotel has even been featured in a few films and Shirley Temple took her first tap-dancing lesson on the tiled stairway! As if that's not enough, Montgomery Clift and Marilyn Monroe are reputed to haunt the joint - proof this place is too good to leave!

Magical Stay at the Roosevelt Hotel

Amazing time at the Roosevelt Hollywood. Great staff and very helpful especially check in staff Molly. She was wonderful and so down to earth. The room was spectacular just enough space for my husband and I to enjoy. Amazing views from the 11th floor.
Timeless Old Hollywood meets contemporary convenience

The Hotel is very well maintained and the staff attentive. You can feel the history around it. The food was reasonably priced and the rooms were accommodating (Margiela products!!!) .
A memorable stay I would gladly do again.
Covid who?

All I can say is, FANTASTIC. The staff is wonderful, the drinks at the Tropicana Cafe are vacation worthy, the vibe at the pool is great, Alana was an incredible host. The service is impeccable. Can’t wait to check in to The Hollywood Roosevelt again! A true gem! For a second, I forgot that we were in a pandemic.
A perfect COVID-safe staycation

I normally don't write reviews, but my husband and I were super impressed with our weekend here. The staff, the vibe, the COVID safety measures....all top-notch.

I normally don't write reviews, but my husband and I were super impressed with our weekend here. The staff, the vibe, the COVID safety measures....all top-notch.
THE ROOMS: We got a loft suite, and it's the perfect size. Stylish, clean, tasteful. Top shelf toiletries. Only drawback: The bathrooms are TINY.
THE FOOD: Limited menu across the hotel, but everything was tasty. Room service is available. In common spaces you can scan a QR code at your table or lounger and they'll bring you anything.
THE POOL: Such a scene! Pool is a perfect temperature. Lots of fun lounge music. So much people-watching.
SERVICE AND STAFF: The best. Everything went so smoothly. Quick check in, room service was prompt. Everyone was super nice. We always felt welcome.
TWO BIG SHOUT-OUTS:
- Our concierge Mollie for having a chilled bottle of champagne in our room when we arrived.
- The two pool hostesses are legit amazing. They have the hardest job at the hotel and they do it with a smile. They deserve ALL the praise.
TIPS:
- Don't book anything smaller than a Loft Suite if you're staying in the tower.
- They'll text you a link to do a pre check in. Use it to buy discounted credits for food and late check out with it.
- You can't reserve a lounger at the pool and space is limited, so get there early. There’s also a three hour time limit. HOWEVER....there are seating areas in the far end by the bocce ball court that are open to anyone, and it was legit better than anything closer to the pool.

Your holiday may be affected by travel restrictions or cancellations
We are continually reviewing our flying schedules, taking into account the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) advice against all non-essential travel. Depending on when you are due to travel, your holiday may be affected and we’ll email you to let you know as least 21 days before travel.
Your next holiday is only a click away - our website has thousands of options ready to book. But if you need more help, just give us a call on 0344 472 9646.
With many customers needing our help, we are prioritising those customers due to travel before 31 December 2020. Log in to Manage my booking where you can message us about your options or you can give us a call. Bear in mind you may have to wait longer than expected. We continue to review this and working to open up these options to more customers. In the meantime check out our FAQs to see if this can help answer any immediate questions.
Rest assured; we will notify you as soon as we know if your holiday has been affected by email.

Don’t worry if you’ve missed a payment or just need a little more time to pay; we have options available to help you. If your holiday is going ahead as planned, you can continue to pay for your holiday in Manage my booking, even if travelling in less than 12 weeks. If you’re unsure, you can delay any additional payments by choosing a new time to travel by requesting a call back in Manage My booking for one of our team to look at options. If your holiday is more than 6 months away, you may wish to set up a Direct Debit to spread the cost. This can be arranged whilst rebooking or afterwards in Manage my booking.
We understand that you may wish to change your holiday plans and we appreciate the need for flexibility.
We'll be in touch by email letting you know how to register to change your holiday plans. You can also log into Manage my booking to find the details there.
Please look out for emails from us or visit our dedicated Covid-19 (Coronavirus) page for the latest updates.
If we haven’t notified you of any changes, your holiday will be going ahead as planned but if you prefer to move your holiday to a later time we can help. You can call our team on 0344 472 9499 who can look at options for you.
Payments are being prioritised based on when the request was made, working in order from March 2020 onwards. We will always try to process refunds at the earliest opportunity, for requests before August our maximum timeframe is 120 days. As we are steadily reducing the maximum processing time for each new request, for refund requests made in August, we expect the maximum processing time to be 80 days, from the date the refund is requested. For those requesting a refund in September, we expect it to be processed within a maximum of 60 days, and then reduce to 30 days for refunds requested in October, before returning to normal levels.
To finalise the amendment, one of our customer advisors will phone you. We need to work through amend requests in departure date order so we can prioritise those with the most imminent travel plans, so you may have a longer wait than usual until we’re able to ring you back. We will help everyone that wants to move their holiday.
I returned early from holiday and have further questions?
You can contact our team by emailing feedback.backhome@virginholidays.com to discuss options on unused portions of your holiday. If you need to contact our team about amending an existing holiday or requesting a refund please log in to manage my booking.
