Cara Hotel - Hotel in Los Angeles - 1730 N Western Ave, USA

To say this is a jewel of a hotel is not enough praise! The hotel is gorgeous and a tranquil spot amidst a busy part of the world - the lobby and pool area are elegant and oh! so comfortable; the bar is beautiful, and the rooms have every possible amenity, including an amazingly comfortable bed. I was impressed by the quiet of the room even overlooking a large dinner party that was held in the evening - we couldn't hear anything. We also loved the proximity to hiking in Griffith Park with spectacular views of the LA Basin. ||I would highly recommend the Cara - we have stayed in many different hotels all over Southern California over the years and the Cara is a true gem!

This hotel is a must-go for anyone looking to stay in this part of LA. The whole feel of the hotel is retro-Hollywood fabulous, and the rooms are very comfortable. More than this, the enthusiasm and graciousness of everyone who works at the hotel were remarkable and unequaled by any other hotel we have ever stayed at (even the 5-star hotels). We felt thoroughly looked after, and no request was too much, even including a late checkout so I could conduct a last-minute business video call. Even the valet service was unbelievably friendly. And the restaurant and bar are gorgeous, with very delicious food and cocktails. Our only regret was that we didn't book a longer trip. We can't wait to go back.

Great room and amenities. Keep in mind it’s a little loud because it has a restaurant in the courtyard but for me it was all part of the experience. Amazing bed and lovely service. Fantastic area if you want to be out of the touristy areas and in a more local based area. Loved my stay. Will definitely stay again.

I loved the Cara restaurant and everything about it. The staff is the most welcoming, friendly, and truly kind that I think I've ever experienced. They were very accommodating too when we asked to be seated near the pool to have a better ambience of the place. The internal court has a restaurant with a pool, trees, and a seating area too. The restaurant is exceptional. The food was amazing and our experience was the best we ever had. Service across the hotel and restaurant is on point, with many staff going well out of their way to make sure the restaurant experiences are memorable. I felt happy every second we were there. We were there to celebrate my husband’s birthday and we are happy that we went to the best restaurant in LA.

The staff was wonderful and welcoming. The first room was a very comfortable twin. When we needed to extend our stay, a twin was not available so my son went to a different hotel. My room was comfortable and clesn and fine until it was time to dleep. There was a terrible sound of what seemed like industrial floor cleanets thst persisted for hours. It was a terrible nights sleep.

Really enjoyed this cute hotel. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable. We got a balcony room and it was a little noisy but I didn’t really hear ppl talking, just music being played. But I don’t remember it being played late. Actually in the morning it was nice waking up to some light jazzy music. Only stayed here for a night and didn’t get a chance to eat at restaurant but ordered dessert room service which was yummy. Hotel is very close to Griffith to do some hiking but also next to Thai town to get some yummy Thai food. Walking around the area didn’t feel particularly unsafe.

The hotel is in a convenient location. Even though the rooms are a bit small, they make up for all of that with the best staff I have seen in a long time. They are courteous, friendly, attentive and eager to serve. The food is very good, but it’s the people there that truly stand out and make it memorable stay.

What a truly pleasant experience. The rooms have a minimal and clean design. The restaurant is stunning and the food is outstanding. The bar has an intimate vibe and perfect ambiance; great for a romantic nightcap or to listen to the DJ while enjoying some chilled red wine. I would highly recommend this place, especially to couples. It’s beautiful here.
