The Hilton Checkers is a wonderful intimate Downtown Los Angeles hotel option. Although in the midst of Downtown, this property is especially cozy and exudes a highly residential feel throughout. Guest rooms are cozy, and take on a very "at home" type feel, particularly for a city hotel. If you're trying to get away from the typical convention hotel, yet still desire something upscale, the...

Built in 1927, the 12-story hotel is a Historic Cultural Monument. Plenty of polished brass complements the neutral sand-colored decor; both conspire to accentuate the...

Got a great rate via priceline, and enjoyed my stay here. The rooms are great, spacious and comfortable; and the bedding was comfortable. The bathroom was good sized, too. Staff was friendly and helpful. My only problem was the cost for parking; be sure to check this out before making your reservation. Liked this property, and would stay here again.

Unless you must stay in downtown LA, there is no reason to stay at this hotel. It is old, and shows its age. There are only 2 elevators for guests. The water in the shower switches between scalding hot and freezing cold frequently and without warning. Service in the restaurant is slow (but that's OK because the food is overpriced)....
