LA - Narrowing it Down!
 
Help! Narrowed down our hotel accommodations to two choices - either the Magic Castle or Summerfield Suites in West Hollywood. Staying the end of the month with three teenagers. Can anyone help me out with location, specifics, etc.? Really appreciate it.

You can walk to much of Hollywood ( footprints, Highland complex, Chinese theatre, etc) from the Magic Castle.
And you are close to the Metro line to Universal or downtown. I don't know the Summerfield at all, but West Hollywood is a prettier neighborhood than Hollywood.

MDV: So are you saying, Magic Castle may be more convenient so some attractions, but Summerfield will be a "prettier" location?

Magic Castle Hotel is closer to things to do in Hollywood or up in Universal etc. The Summerfield Suites in West Hollywood is more of a residential area, but then you are between Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Depends really on what you are doing while you are here. My sister stayed at the Magic Castle Hotel and so have friends of mine. The rooms are nice sized and they have a pool in the middle.

With 3 teens the free breakfast and fridge at the Summerfield will be a godsend.

Be sure to book it with "webrates" special if you don't mind paying in advance, big savings on the Wyndham website.
