Amazing staff and attitude
The hotel itself is somewhat worn and old, but the beds were clean and comfy and the staff were absolutely amazing - very welcoming, kind, generous, helpful and accommodating to our needs. Each staff member we encountered was just wonderful and their attitude made up for the shortfalls in the physical property.

Best Hotel Ever
We absolutely loved it here. It was a true respite while visiting LA. The kids agreed is the best place they've ever stayed. The complimentary items were a hit with all of us. And, the staff made the stay so pleasant. We may come back to LA just to stay and relax at the Magic Castle Hotel.

Felt very safe staying here alone with my children and the staff were beyond kind. Walking distance to the Hollywood walk of fame & everything we came to see. I will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone with a family.

Magic Castle Hotel is amazing!
The Magic Castle Hotel is an awesome place to stay if you are visiting Universal Studios or the Hollywood area. Staff provide some of the most exceptional customer service I have ever experienced, the rooms were big and comfortable and the hotel provided a ton of great amenities. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and love every second of it as I did on this trip. A sincere thank you to all of the staff for making our family trip so much better!

4/10 Fair

Welcome to an expensive AirBnb acting like a hotel
The hotel is a pretty old apartment community turned into a hotel with 1B1B unit called as suite rooms. The parking is a hassle, the free breakfast is laughable, the floors are creaky and you are sold magic related merchandize. The things I liked about the hotel were one of the front desk manager who did our check-in who was a pleasure to interact, was very co-operative, friendly and the reason why I didn't change my mind and go somewhere else after looking at the "hotel".

The staff were so nice and accommodating. The hotel had alot of free snacks, breakfast, ice cream, Popsicles and soda. Cute spot to stay if you are going to the magic show.

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed for 4 nights with our 2 teenagers. The suite was massive and kitchen and cooking facilities were convenient. Best of all was the great service, daily laundry, unlimited snacks, breakfast included and ice cream. The place is a little run down, but clean. It makes up for it with the extras and amazing service.

The staff at the hotel were excellent and made us feel welcome and important. The atmosphere at the hotel was really special and it felt like a little haven of friendliness and safety. I would stay at the hotel again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

8/10 Very good

This property is unique in that its right next to the Magic Castle. It is an older property so if you are strictly 5 star hotel person it might not be a satisfying experience but for my trip up to see a band it worked great! Staff was friendly and nice and parking was convenient which can be a hassle in that area.

Absolutely outstanding service!
As always the service at The Magic Castle Hotel surpassed anything experienced anywhere in the world! The location is an added bonus, and having access to the amazing club next door makes it next level. I will never stay anywhere else now unless they're booked solid!

Best staff on the planet! So much fun! Love this place & we will be back! Home of the popsicle hotline, soft serve cream and more snacks than you can dream of…just like magic, they appear whenever you desire.

Great hotel in the heart of everything!
We love the staff there! Always such a great experience. Know you are staying in an older hotel that has been renovated, so it’s not the newest place, but the amenities and staff more than make up for that!
