Where to stay in LA

We are flying into LA next summer. Spending 6 days in LA and Anneheim in total is the plan with 3 nights hopefully using my DVC points at Grand Californian hotel so that’s the Anaheim section covered off.

Been probably 18 years since I went to LA and it was a brief trip when we stayed in Santa Monica. As to what we do my daughter wants to go to Warner Bros I think, do a tour of star’s homes, we only have the 3 days.

So you LA experts which area would you recommend? We are thinking of maybe getting an Air B and B.

Then we are off on a pan USA trip to the East Coast with some driving and Flying, before probably having 3-4 nights in DVC at WDW at the end 3 weeks later.

Just booked flights with Air Canada today.

We are back to the West Coast next August after 7 years. Only decided yesterday when DD and her boyfriend said they wanted to go but he’s 24 and the insurance would be a lot for him to drive.

Last time we were there we stayed at the Beverley Garland hotel (think the names changed now). Decent hotel close to Universal, they have a trolley bus to take you there and good for Warner Bros, we did this tour last time and my daughter wants to do it again as she loved it and her boyfriend hasn’t been before.

We’re doing our first LA trip later this year and have booked a few nights at The Tangerine in Burbank after reading some positive reviews on the DiBB.

It’s close to both Universal Studios and Warner Bros tour which we are planning to visit so seems well located for our needs. It also offers free parking and breakfast

Although we stayed at the Garland last, will check out the Tangerine for next year and compare the two.

I stayed at the Hilton Studio City, opposite the gates to Universal and CityWalk. Was a 15 min Uber to Warner and 2 stops on the metro to sunset blvd and Hollywood.

Was not cheap mind.

We are waiting to book for next year and plan to book the tangerine. The garland also gets good reviews but the breakfast and parking has swung the tangerine for me!
