What People Are Saying About The Hotel Cafe

The Scene – Arrive early to score one of the too-close-together rickety tables, a la a Parisian cafe. Otherwise, you'll end up standing three rows deep behind the seating area. Attention is always focused on the small stage, where talented local singer-songwriters--and occasionally notable names like Swedish sensation Jose Gonzalez--share their musical vision. The cappuccino bar of the establishment's early days has evolved into a full liquor license, but there is still typical cafe fare to nibble on. – – The Draw – There aren't many places in Hollywood where one will…

START YOUR NIGHT HERE WITH VELVET NIGHTLIFE

by scott123 at Citysearch

Velvet Nightlife is a web-site that allows you to tell Nightclubs in Hollywood what you are willing to spend for table service. The web-site works with club owners to help them reduce the amount of excess inventory that they have every night. It is not uncommon for a customer to be able to get VIP bottle service at many of Hollywood’s hottest clubs for a fraction of the normal cost. I got a table with two bottles of Belvedere for $400 including tax and gratuity.

Best in town

by shawnking33 at Citysearch

This place is one of my fave spots in LA. I check out their online calendar once a month and usually check out 2-3 shows. The crowd is real, entrance is in the alley, drinks are good and they serve food( but never tried it). Best part: the music really represents the soul of LA. Cool place

Know Before You Go:

People come here to appreciate quality music, so if you need to have a long conversation during the set, do it outside. Discreet asides to your neighbors are usually fine, though.
