Editorial Review for Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel – by Kelle Schillaci

The Scene
When it first rolled out the red carpet in 1927, the Roosevelt was ground zero for industry hot shots like Louis B. Mayer. The hotel hosted the first Academy Awards in 1929, threw star-studded "This is Your Life" after-parties, and counted Marilyn Monroe as a repeat visitor. Legends never disappear--apparently, they return to haunt tourist-laden hotels. Staffers have been reporting inexplicable "incidents" since the building reopened in 1985 after major renovations. The well-rehearsed stories include a "cold spot" believed to be a man's spirit.

The Details
A sweeping, red valet carpet welcomes guests, but while the grand foyer was once over-the-top lush, it's been toned down to introduce a more minimalist feel, like that of area boutique properties. There are 302 rooms in all, including 80 suites and 65 cabana rooms. Restaurants include the Cinegrill, Theodore's Restaurant and the poolside Tropicana Bar.

Dark deep orange embiance

09/23/2008 Posted by wordinflesh

If you like orange lighting against black panels, you might like this hotel decor more then I do. Efficient bath and accessories. Still have grumpy air conditioning system that can wake a cow up. Ten thousand moon at night with spot light shining directly at windows. Refrigerator is not turned on even though mini bar items were there. Front desk staff though not knowledgable are willing to help. 24 hours phone in tech support is great. Concierge and bell service above average. Location very convenient.

Immature, unhelpful staff

07/24/2008 Posted by CKSeattle

I had a relatively good experience with the valet staff and housekeeping, but the front desk, concierge and service staff seemend so inexperienced. It seemed as if they couldn't care less about their jobs -- like they were too good to be of service, as if they are unaware they are in the hospitality industry. Fell far short of expectations. Great location for tourist activity and a beautifully decorated old hotel.

Pros: Location, decor, atmosphere

Cons: Not worth the bad service
