Hilton Checkers Los Angeles

$$$$, Downtown

User Rating: **** 4.2

Fodor's Review:

Opened as the Mayflower Hotel in 1927, Checkers retains much of its original character; its various-size rooms all have charming period details, although they also have contemporary luxuries like pillow-top mattresses, coffeemakers, 24-hour room service, and cordless phones. The rooftop pool deck overlooks the L.A. library and nearby office towers. The plush lobby bar and lounge look like they belong in a private club, with comfortable leather chairs and a large plasma-screen TV. In the mornings, the complimentary car service can drive you anywhere within a 2-mi radius.

Luxury room in bad neighborhoo

Posted by Kusandra from Oakland, CA on 2/1/07

The hotel has little in the way of public spaces but it doesn't matter because the rooms are wonderful. The streets around it are dicey but with the valet parking you don't have to spend much time on them.
