The hotel

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!

Richard, one of the security guards gave us a great tour of the whole hotel. We had no idea there were so many hidden gems here. He was able to show us the Blossom Room (first ever academy awards room), the rooftop, one of the brand new penthouse suites, a little theater hidden behind bookshelves, and the Teddy which is one of the most popular… Read more
Richard, one of the security guards gave us a great tour of the whole hotel. We had no idea there were so many hidden gems here. He was able to show us the Blossom Room (first ever academy awards room), the rooftop, one of the brand new penthouse suites, a little theater hidden behind bookshelves, and the Teddy which is one of the most popular celebrity nightclubs. He was very friendly and a great tour guide. He was even kind enough to take a bunch of photos in my group without us even asking! We love RICHARD!!!!!! Overall, my stay here was great. I came for a conference in West Hollywood and this was a very cool place to stay. I only gave 4/5 starts just because our TV did not work and the shower would fill up very quickly because the drain must have been clogged. Besides that, everything was awesome. Read less

Pre mix tomato juice and that’s it, no Worcestershire sauce, celery salt had to ask for Tabasco sauce. Used table salt to rim the glass. Garnished with one olive one lime wedge and one lemon wedge.

Nice hotel. Both bars not so great. Ordered Bloody Mary at 11:30 am. Lobby bar did not have mix and directed me to the grille bar. Pre mix tomato juice and that’s it, no Worcestershire sauce, celery salt had to ask for Tabasco sauce. Used table salt to rim the glass. Garnished with one olive one lime wedge and one lemon wedge. Had it remade without table salt and took it to the lobby bar. Kind enough to salt a new glass and once again used table salt. Garnished with three of the tiniest olives I’ve ever seen. All of that for $21.92 which included their mandatory 18% tip. Read less

The security guard Richard gave us an awesome tour of the famous Roosevelt Hotel. We went to the rooftop and saw the penthouse the vibe was excellent. We learned the incredible history behind such a historic building and all the awesome people that visited.

The security guard Richard was really nice. He showed us around the hotel and a few closed off rooms. We also got to go to the rooftop of the hotel. 5 star rating for Richard!!! Things that can be improved: - all the snacks in room cost a lot - no dresser in room - bathroom door wouldn’t lock - the gym membership cost extra Richard’s tour made… Read more
