“Good business hotel in downtown”

Omni Los Angeles at California Plaza

May 31, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

I enjoyed my stay here. It had all the amenities you'd expect from a good quality business hotel...
Big clean spacious rooms, wifi internet access, big TV, good bar and restaurant (if a little expensive), friendly staff, good maid service, great hot and cold breakfast selection (with made-to-order omlette available).

It's located on a quiet street, felt safe enough walking around, about 5 minutes from a metro stop (pershing square). Short walk from some decent downtown bars and restaurants (particularly recommend the rooftop bar at the Standard Hotel, best city skyline view in LA). There was a small shopping area at the bottom of the hotel.

Only downside was parking was a bit expensive at $30/day, as was the hotel bar.

I'd recommend signing up to the Omni Select Guest programme prior to staying. Its free to sign up and gets you free wifi access plus 2 free drinks and newspapers delivered to your room every morning.

“great service at the Omni”

Omni Los Angeles at California Plaza

5 of 5 stars
Southsea, UK

1/1 found this review helpful

We stayed in the Omni for the first few nights of our honeymoon and the staff were so helpful. My new husband had called in advance and we had champagne and few special extras ready when we arrived which was lovely.
I would recommend for the service alone but the room was clean and spacious too.

“Great Hotel!”

Omni Los Angeles at California Plaza

4 of 5 stars
Sunnyvale, CA
May 25, 2008

My 8 year old and I are on a "alone" getaway to see Wicked in LA. The Omni got good reviews here, so I booked it. The "club level" room we got is $219 per night, cheaper than some of the regular rooms. I found the rate online, but called to confirm the ammenities. Join the frequent guest program for extra perks. Perks of the club level room are a room on the top (17th) floor (with key access to the floor), complementary breakfast (french toast, bacon, lox and bagels, fruit, etc etc), and complementary cocktail hour from 5-8 (alcohol, sodas, snacks). There was so much at the cocktail hour that it was dinner for us! Hotel ammenities: Small outdoor pool (too cold outside for us to go in but the pool was warm), nice workout room, COMFY beds, windows that open. When we checked in we were given a backpack of toys for my daughter. All good. Oh, and our rate included complementary valet parking (normally $30 per night).

The only problem was that when we called the front desk last night at 9PM to ask about the circling helicopter a couple blocks away, we were informed that it was due to a movie being filmed (500 Days of Summer was being filmed in the park right outside the hotel during the day). Luckily, we decided not to go check it out, because it was actually the POLICE looking for a SNIPER shooting from another hotel into the street. I had a little chat with the front desk manager about this. She didn't seem to grasp the severity of the mistake. I suspect that as long as things go smoothly, this is a great hotel. And, except for the idiot at the front desk, things went very smoothly. The staff are not the brightest bulbs on the string, but they are very friendly.

I would stay here again for sure, especially with the kids! I just wouldn't ask anyone here for advice.

“exceptional service, comfy bed (rqst a high floor for a view)‎”

Omni Los Angeles at California Plaza

5 of 5 stars
Saint Paul, Minnesota
May 18, 2008

I received an excellent deal for this hotel from work, and I'm VERY glad I took advantage of booking my stay here. We got a 12th floor room and swear we were one of only another couple that was on the same floor out of over 20 rooms. It was a refreshing oasis of silence. Valet parking only, and it's a bit pricey at $30/day, but its nice that you can go in and out as often as you'd like. Sign up at the omnihotels.com for their preferred guest reward program (free) and then you are able to get free wi-fi in the room (otherwise it's $10/day), free morning bevs, etc. I highly enjoyed my stay here, and would totally return in the future.

“GREAT Hotel with GREAT Location and GREAT service”

Omni Los Angeles at California Plaza

5 of 5 stars
Napa, California
May 18, 2008

Right in the middle of Bunker Hill, the cener of downtown Los Angeles. We chose it because of proximity to AMTRAK and the Disney concert hall. There were just soooo many other museums and attractions nearby we stayed two extra nights! The staff were friendly, fantastically helpful, and seemed more genuine than most four star staff. The price was also right because of hotwire.com. We have already booked more nights for the Fall. The rooms are large, bedding comfortable, bathrooms almost as large as the bedroom with separate shower and tub. The desk leaves a little to be desired and they charged $9.95/day for internet but otherwise it was a wonderful hotel.
