What People Are Saying About The Standard Hotel Hollywood

Featured Review

Contributor

Contributor

The all-American diner gets an L.A. makeover at this hotel haunt where beaded curtains replace blinds and hard liquor spikes milk and coffee. Not unlike many a hungover guest, this 24-hour trendoid mecca is ghostly during daylight. But things heat up at night when runway-model waitresses serve hungry clubgoers international comfort food like Croque Monsieur, a French-style grilled cheese with ham and Gruyere on rustic bread. Burgers come with skin-on shoestring fries while ahi tuna tartare and butternut squash soup are other belly fillers for after-hours food fiends looking to sober up.

Editor's Tips

The Extras:
Non-hotel guests from all over the city drop in for an affordable cut at Rudy's. It's just like your corner barbershop, if your corner barbershop had customers like Matt Dillon and offered tattoos.
Parking:
Valet is the best bet for diners not staying at the hotel. Get validation for a two-hour discount rate.
Look Good:
Waiting for a table? Pass the time with a poolside cocktail.
Know Before You Go:
Keep in mind that rooms facing the Sunset Strip tend to get a little noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, thanks to the boulevard's hectic nightlife scene. But then most guests of The Standard are here to party anyway.
When to Go:
Get there before last call, when an influx of hungry clubgoers makes 2am to 3:30am the restaurant's busiest time.

West Hollywood Incarnate

by cdlittletx

When I go to LA, I always stay here. It's perfect. Relaxed, very informal, great service, great rooms, great restaurant and bar, and when it comes to cost. It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at SweetHotelDeals.us They usually have some pretty good deals on there!
