Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels is the mother church of the archdiocese of Los Angeles. Built originally in the 1800s, it was rebuilt to the tune of USD180 million after the Northbridge earthquake in 1994. This seven-level structure accommodates up to 3000 worshippers. The lower level Crypt Mausoleum is also worth a glance, and is the resting place of bishops and cardinals.

Service and hospitality have been points of pride at this hotel since its 1914 opening, when room rates started at $1 a night. Compact rooms are attractively furnished in classic English style with walnut furniture, and local calls are free. The front-desk and concierge staff are adept at catering to your every whim: they'll book anything from a Fisherman's Wharf tour to a dinner reservation. For ...

It's hard to say if LA's cathedral will one day be regarded as an architectural classic like, say, Westminster Abbey, but for now it's at least notable for its modern vibe combining classicism with LA's Spanish heritage.

In Short This massive 3,000-seat Catholic cathedral serves as a bold focal point for Bunker Hill and the Hollywood Freeway. While the sandy concrete exterior is austere and administrative, the interior and courtyards offer many elaborate details. Must-sees include the 80-foot tall, 45-ton cherrywood pipe organ; massive hydraulic doors decorated with Christian images and designs symbolizing ...

In Short Situated within easy shopping distance from Union Square, the King George Hotel's tearoom serves tea the mezzanine level on weekends under a portrait of Queen Elizabeth. Weary shoppers and theatergoers fill the small room quickly, munching on accompaniments such as scones, trifles, tea sandwiches and assorted pastries.

Not a good place to have a wedding
brought to you by
Citysearch
I've attended 2 weddings at this overrated building. Granted, it's decent looking but the architecture and overall look of the building did not make me feel any sense of awe or reverence. My mom put it best when she said that the place looks more like a museum than a cathedral. The place looks very bland with all muted shades of brown and tan. With all the money spent on this place and all the ...

The location was great because it was right in the middle of Union Square, so all of the shops were surrounding us. The service was great because they were very attentive.
This hotel made me feel comfortable: The set up of the room was very comfortable. The bed was cozy and the chairs had a lot of cushion to them.
