Radisson Hotel

I chose this hotel because it was on the Hyatt Website. I am a diamond with Hyatt and enjoy their hotels all over this country. I will be honest I expected to see a nice hotel that was ready to be «Hyatt“ised. I stayed at their hotel affiliate hotel sieria prior to branding it hyatt house. that chain was classy and awesome. This hotel is an embarassment to the Hyatt Name. I am shocked that they allowed this hotel to show up on thier webiste prior to the renovation. I am sure that Hyatt got a steal on this property — there is a ton of potential and the proximity to LAX is outstanding, Hyatt had no properties in the area so they needed this. The good part is that they are goign to undergo a full renovation, and knowing Hyatt this property will be brought back to a state that is better than its original glory days. I dont know if Hyatt will keep or renovate the outside amenities however by the pool there appears to be two tennis CT’s and a basketball CT on the top deck of the pool house. A cool feature that most hotels no longer have.
I was put on their «executive» 12^th floor. but it was somewhat nasty. the celing tiles were all stained and the hall smelled. The room smelled even worse and was worse than any super 8 or motel 6 room I have stayed in. Like most of the reviews out there, my sleep number bed was broken as well. I am sure that Hyatt will start with the top floors for their elite members and work their way down. I can tell you that this is one property I will not stay at again until the renovation is done. I look forward to that day becase I really do love Hyatt properties… I am in the LA area every 6 weeks for buseinss and would love to call this hotel «home» when I am here.
Positive note. I talked wiht the chef Dale for a while in the restaurant. The Salmon was outstanding and the Chef was very personable and nice. Asked me to ask for him next time I come. The staff was outstanding — both the lobby bar and the servers in the restaurant.
I look forward to seeing this hotel after the renovation and my antiicipation would be to give it a 5 star rateing. Dont let me down Hyatt!

This is a terrible hotel. The lobby is nice and clean but I was surprised how ghetto looking the rooms are. My room was big, however, you get a 24′ inch TV from the 1990’s with the remote that didn’t work, 20 channels of basic cable and a greenish, yellow hue that can not be changed… Oh… and room smelled musty. Honestly, I was afraid I was going to see bed bugs. Thank God there weren’t any! (I checked the sides of my bed. The hallways were dirty too.
FYI — It’s not the «Radisson» anymore, name changed to «The Concourse» which is affiliated with the HYATT. I sure hope they’re going to renovate this hotel soon because this hotel will definitely give the Hyatt a bad name.

Room keys only half worked. Half the power outlets worked. When we tried to get a new key we were turned away because the room numbers and names were mixed up. We were in a pinch trying to find a room because of a death in the family. I would never stay here again, even for a good price.
p. s. sleep number here is a joke. It doesn’t work. Not even a little.

Maybe my expectations were too high for a Radisson, but here’s what I experienced.
First of all, I have to say that the staff there is incredibly polite and friendly. Among the best I’ve seen. The problem is that they have a lot of uphill battles to fight in this hotel, and battles they cannot control. The free shuttle to and from LAX is a lifesaver. Cabs come to the hotel regularly, and they also offer a town car service if needed.
The room was a real disappointment. As others have said, they are very dated. My room was very worn. The wallpaper was scuffed and peeling, the furniture was outdated and chipped, even the table lamps were chipped. The desk chair was so low that it was at chest level, and the side chair next to the bed was threadbare on the seat and arms. The bed dust ruffle was dirty. The bathroom tub/​tile area was not clean. Honestly, my room needed to be completely gutted.
On top of that, my sleep number bed was broken but when I fell into it late at night I was too tired to deal with it. I went to the front desk the next day and they said they would send someone up to fix it, or I could change rooms. I opted to have them fix it. Later that day I saw they had inflated the bed but the remote was broken so I couldn’t adjust the firmness of the mattress. I went to the front desk again and they said they would send someone up to fix it. When I got back to the hotel once again late that night, the remote had not been fixed. However, I was again too tired to do anything about it at 2 in the morning. The next day when I checked out the front desk gave me a $ 30 credit, which was a nice gesture, but I would have preferred to sleep on a functioning mattress.
If this hotel would put in the budget to redo its rooms, I think they would see a real uptick in customer satisfaction, as the staff there is really top notch.

Review on Radisson Hotel Valet Parking ONLY.
I use this overnight valet service when I’m in a rush to fly out of LAX Terminal 1 (Southwest/​AirTran/​US Airways). I can drop my car off and walk to terminal 1 within 4 – 6 minutes… granted how fast you walk but I’m a brisk walker.
The parking manager David and the other assistant manager, and valet attendants are very courteous and prompt. Sometimes it gets backed up with hotel guests. But this is always a quick solution when i’m in a hurry to catch my flight which I usually am.
*Self-​parking off site (within walking distance; fee applies
overnight fee $ 30 per night.

Had an event there and stayed overnight. Rooms need some freshening… the entire look of our suite was straight out of the 1980’s. Free internet in the rooms is terribly slow so if you want to do anything online, just know that you’re going to have to ante up for the «premium connection».
Our event went very smoothly. The sales staff was super accommodating and really worked with us to have a nice event at a reasonable price. I do recommend this place for an event — a good basic union hotel. Nothing fancy, but a pleasant event staff to work with.

Here are the positives:
The staff is very friendly and efficient. They want you to be happy.
Here are the negatives:
While the lobby looks nice, our room looks like it’s falling apart! The floors in our room are so dirty & stained, that I wouldn’t walk around without shoes. The bathtub has most of the enamel/​paint rubbed off on the bottom. The duvet covers have iron stains (I hope that’s what they are). The whole room just feels old & dirty

If I could give it a minus 5 stars I would! First off, parking is valet only for the hotel and is a whopping $ 30 a night. The public parking garage, out the back entrance and across the street is about $ 18 a night. The FIRST room we checked into the shower drain was stopped up, the sink leaked all over the counter and the air conditioner didn’t work. My friend and I insisted on a new room — not much better. The AC wouldn’t get the room below 76 after an hour so we called maintenance which finally showed up an hour later — at 11:45 p.m. The guy climbed up on a ladder, adjusted something in a rusted panel near the ceiling and said a valve was closed but was now open so we should get cooler. Didn’t happen.
Then there is the décor — the plastic liner on the curtain had holes — BOTH ROOMS were like this.
This place is a shithole. DON’T STAY HERE. PERIOD. FOR ANY PRICE.

LIKES convenience, amenities, service
DISLIKES some rooms are renovated, some are not =can be disappointing if you’ve stayed at a renovated room
BACKGROUND I went here in late March 2014 for the LA Web Fest
SERVICE The service was great. All of the staff I encountered were friendly, approachable and helpful. This also included phone conversations.
I asked for an early check-​in (very early… say 6am) and a late check out (1pm) and I was granted both, no questions asked. They were very understanding of my situation, which I fully appreciated.
The shuttle was reliable and on time.
Their restaurant server was also helpful and efficient.
ROOM I stayed at this hotel two different times, with couple of days in between. The first room I got was a newer room with the Sleep Number bed. I really enjoyed that one, as it was on the eleventh floor. The view was not the most fabulous, but it was not bad since they had the illuminated pillars that greet travelers to the city of LA.
The second room I was assigned to was on the seventh floor and was noticeably older. No Sleep Number beds, the lamp was crooked and the room just seemed dated. The shower worked, but it was an older style.
However, both rooms were clean, with clean white sheets. The TV is personalized, as my name was printed on screen when I turned it on. Cool!
AMENITIES They have an outdoor swimming pool and a gym, but I did not get to try either one of these amenities.
I did get to take a bubble bath, had coffee in their café and dined in their restaurant.
The café was pricey as expected, as a cup of iced mocha and a muffin cost me almost $ 10 USD! I found out later that the muffin I got was about $ 4 in itself. Whoa.
The restaurant was fine, except the food presentation was not impressive. The salad I ordered at the Palmira Bar and Grill looked like something from McDonald’s, except McDonald’s salad looks more Instagram-​worthy. I hope that their attention to detail would be better and that their salad dressing would be proportionate to the greens.
LOCATION Right near LAX that you are actually parallel to the huge LAX sign, depending on which part of the hotel you are. It’s perfect for business travelers, I suppose. The only reason why I stayed here was because of the web series festival that I was attending at this hotel.
This was about an hour bus ride to Santa Monica, a 15-​minute cab ride to Manhattan Beach and I am not so sure how far from Sunset Boulevard, Rodeo Drive, etc.
VERDICT I would recommend it to business travelers and to conference attendees. The hotel had the amenities to keep you busy, and provided a clean and safe environment for guests. I wish that the hotel would be fully renovated to give all guests the full experience. But overall, I am glad that I chose to stay here.

This is a terrible hotel option near LAX. The parking is inconvenient and expensive, the rooms are small and dated, and pick-​up and drop-​off is not well organized.
There is, however, a decent restaurant and it is right next to the airport.

*THIS REVIEW IS [MAINLY] FOR THE BAR* — Specifically for waiter, Victor Hernandez! We sat ourselves at a table for 3 and were served with menus right away. He took our order for drinks and food and within minutes came with our 3 whiskey mules. We felt like they were filled with too much ginger ale and could barely taste the whiskey, so we asked if we could just have a few more splashes of whiskey in each. But Victor, being the kind man that he is, just re-​made the drinks, with a smile on his face. The food came out really fast as well. We ordered the pizza with mushroom and pepperoni and bbq chicken wings with an asian chicken salad. Everything was real yummy, but the best part was Victor’s service.
As for for the hotel, it’s an okay place for travelers, because it is very close to LAX. I feel like the lobby and fancy restaurant are nice and all… but its kind of a façade. The rooms are VERY outdated. The TV is from like. the 80’s, there were some pretty intense scratches on the bathtub, its as hot as heck in the rooms if you don’t have any air going, and the lamp plug was so far gone I couldn’t even plug it in to do any bedtime reading before hand. Also, the room service menu was a paper booklet with handwriting that read, «price list needs confirming».
Pass on the room, but do visit my friend Victor at the bar if you need a drink! He’s awesome.

We got the hotel through Hotwire, and I have to say, you get what you pay for (We spent a little over $ 200 for 4 days and 3 nights). I arrived in LA a lot earlier than Evon did so I called ahead to see if the room was ready. The lady that answered said they had a room with two double beds available so I hopped on the hotel shuttle bus and headed there. I wasn’t able to check in due to the fact that the hotel room was booked under her name. However, the lady at the check in desk was helpful and said to just call Hotwire, have them add my name on the reservation and then fax the info to the hotel. After about 5 – 10 minutes, the information was sent, I paid the $ 75 security deposit, got the 2 room cards and went upstairs.
The room was average, nothing fancy. Two double beds with a small dresser and two lamps in between, an armchair, office desk and chair, mini fridge, dresser with three drawers with a super old TV (which had cable, surprisingly) on top, another small table and a big mirror. Bathroom appliances, towels, and everything else was fine as well. The walls are pretty thin– you can hear doors being closed, people walking around and talking, and even the planes from LAX flying overhead. that wasn’t so fun.
The only slight annoyance was that the mirrored sliding door for the closet would open a few inches and then get stuck. I called maintenance as soon as I discovered the problem (around 1 pm) and they said someone would be up shortly. I waited around, took a shower, changed and still didn’t see anyone. We had to call again after Evon got to the hotel (which was way after 5), in which they finally sent someone up… only to have him force the door all the way open and leave it there. He said someone would come by the next morning to fix it but it was still the same by the end of our trip. I mean, it’s just a door but still!
Don’t get me wrong, the staff was very polite and helpful! Concierge was very nice, the bartender downstairs was a gentleman, our sheets were changed every day, towels were replaced, etc. I’m not sure we’ll be staying back here again, but overall, it wasn’t so bad.
Pros: good customer service, courteous staff members, airport shuttle
Cons: thin walls, average amenities, door was not fixed

The one star goes to The Concorde (lobby bar). Food is good though the desserts were lacking. The staff at the lobby bar (Day & night) have been the only redeeming quality of this hotel.
The lobby seems nice & updated but once you get to the rooms, it’s another story. Sleep number bed control didn’t work. Tv didn’t work. Maintenance couldn’t fix it. The fridge didn’t work, had to throw away my beverages, which spoiled, the next morning. Spider in my shower. No Kleenex in the bathroom. They only have one shuttle supposedly every 20 min to and from the airport which sometimes you have to wait more than an hour for OR haul all your luggage from the furthest terminal to the hotel. Once we had to ride the Marriott shuttle to the Radisson, because we waited an hour forty for the shuttle & it never came. It spoke volumes. 4 of the riders were actually going to the Marriott. There were SEVENTEEN going to the Radisson.
All of that is mostly tolerable. What I find to be completely inexcusable & a reflection of the management & hiring staff (and not a good reflection at that) is the dishonesty of the employees, namely those who have any hand or exchange in turning over the rooms.
I left my Apple laptop charger in my room, plugged in underneath the desk. When I realized this, I called and they said they had no record of it. How convenient. Now I’m out $ 80 for a new laptop charger & they couldn’t care less.
Make matters worse, my friend forgot his brand new (expensive) bottle of cologne by the TV in his room. He didn’t notice until we were at the airport so he immediately called the hotel, they said they have it & will hold it for him to pick up next time since he was coming back in a couple days. Well, they played dumb when he returned and finally, after two weeks of him coming back & asking for it they said there was no record it. A shrug of their shoulders was the best they could offer.
Granted we should be more responsible of our belongings. With the work we do & the hours we work, it’s exhausting and easy to leave something behind. At the same time, hotel staff should be more honest and not pocket guest belongings. I’d expect these shenanigans at a Motel 6 or Aqua hotel but not a Radisson. I’ve stayed at Embassy’s, Marriott’s & Westin’s whose staff were always honest and went above and beyond when and if something was left behind etc. Someone could drop a quarter and they’d try to get it back to them.
Not here. No remnants of integrity, care, or making things right here at the Radisson LAX.

This was not a bad hotel at all. That is, until I was trying to leave.
I had an early flight out and checked the night before to make sure there would be sufficient airport shuttles for me to get to LAX in the morning, which there were. In the morning, I called and requested a bell hop to help me with my suitcases (3 suitcases, 2 arms– you do the math). I waited over 40 minutes and made several calls to the front desk before someone finally arrived. Thankfully, the last shuttle I could catch to make my flight was on time. But unfortunately my nightmare was not quite over. The shuttle driver completely missed my terminal and dropped me off at the next terminal, which was quite a walk for me with the time constraint, not to mention the fact that I had to spend $ 5 to buy a luggage cart now to get down to the curbside check-​in.
I made my flight by the skin of my teeth, but this was all very unprofessional behavior.

Very disappointing hotel stay, if you can avoid this location or hotel all together, please do! The staff is friendly enough but completely useless, they will constantly fall back on the excuse «there is nothing we can do…*fake smile*» very infuriating…
We called in, as instructed to request a king size bed and the person we talked to from the Radisson confirmed our request. It wasn’t until we got there did they tell us all the king sized beds are unavailable and that there is no indication that we made the request, «sorry there is nothing we can do». Are you serious? For all I know, they probably got the request but said they didn’t.
Just be safe and get a confirmation.
Cons:
TV is from the 80s
No one answers your call. I called and requested towels… no towels came.
Staff told us the manager would call to check in, no call
Was offered complementary breakfast but never got it
No self parking (there is a lot nearby that is walking distance but they don’t provide you that information)
Valet parking is way too expensive for a place like this
List goes on…

If this hotel was in Vegas it would have been demolished and rebuilt by now.
The hotel needs some upgrades. We stayed here as it was the only hotel in the LAX area which would take a pet on the night we required. The room was super warm. It took almost 3 hours to chill it from 78 to 75 degrees with the pathetic in-​room air conditioning. The room had no coffee facilities and the fridge did not work. Also the TV sound would not go below 25 on the TV set. There are also only 4 small elevators to service this large hotel, so there is normally a wait when trying to move around the hotel.
The only decent thing was that there is free wi-​fi. Also there is a free shuttle which runs to the airport every 20 mins.
At $ 200+ a night for corporate rate it is very over-​priced. Unless you are traveling with a pet there are a lot better options in the area.
Also it should be noted that the staff were friendly.

Vu le prix (120 $) c’est une honte de devoir payer le parking 30 $. Si seulement il n’y avait que ça. Après avoir récupéré les clés auprès du lobby (personnel agréable), nous arrivons dans notre chambre qui est :
— peu lumineuse,
— la télé est cassée,
— le papier est affreux et vieux (on se croit dans un motel miteux, même un formule 1 fait plus propre)
— les fils des lampes, réveil, télé traînent partout.
Nous voulions faire une lessive mais la laverie était inondée et dégueulasse.
La salle de sport tient la route.
En conclusion, pour un hôtel a 120 $ bien placé, c’est du vol.
ÉVITEZ CET HÔTEL !!!

3.5 STARS??? Ummm… NO. I call ‘Star-​Fraud!’ [*and I don’t mean Miley Cyrus!]
Here’s my story… brace yourself:
Arrived last night at 1am… only to find that they did NOT have our reservation which was booked through priceline, in their system. THIS IS A FIRST in more than 10 years of using Priceline!!! We travel ALL THE TIME and use Priceline constantly and have NEVER had this happen! We showed them on our cell phone, the reservation along with confirmation number, but it still took them more than ½ an hour to get it figured out!
Next, we went to pay for it, with our PayPal MC which showed we had PLENTY of money in the account to pay for the room, but for some reason they said it wouldn’t accept the card. We then looged into the PayPal acct, showed the balance RIGHT THERE in their faces, and still… they couldn’t get the reservation paid. ANOTHER FIRST.
The debacle grew from one thing to the next, until we found ourselves at the counter for more than 2 hours just to get to the point of getting keys to a room!!! FINALLY… we had keys in hand, completely exhausted from our travels, and stressed because we had to be up at 6am. The manager, Mytzia, looked us in the eye and told us «I’m giving you an UP-​GRADED room for your troubles.»
You can imagine the frustration and surprise when we stepped into our room only to be hit in the face with a foul stench, black mold all over the bedding, rusted light fixtures, and peeling wall paper as well as other indications such as ceiling seeping from obvious WATER DAMAGE. Can you say HEALTH HAZARD???
We immediately called down and requested a new room; it took ANOTHER 30 minutes but finally their ‘security guy’ showed up to take us about four rooms down for a ‘better’ room. SAME THING!!!
When we called we asked for the ‘Supervisor’ that we had worked with prior to the manager, Mytzia, who was now gone for the night, and were told that she too, was also gone for the night so we just went down to the front desk… with our luggage cart FULL of luggage and two service dogs waiting anxiously in the car… we’re now on HOUR 3 of ‘check-​in.‘
When we got to the desk, out pops the original Suprevisor who we were just told was ‘gone for the night.’ …we explain the conditions of the two rooms we had just viewed and that they were HEALTH HAZARDS and unacceptable. We asked if the rooms were rated higher by floor and were told yes… so we said give us the TOP FLOOR then because there’s no way we’re going back to floor 6 after what we’d seen. She got angry, argued back n forth and finally agreed to a room on floor 11. The room she sent us to was a STRUGGLING 2.5 STAR room MAYBE a 3 star if not for the peeling wall paper, broken TV, broken refrigerator, and shoddy extension cords everywhere… BUT at this point, there was no mold and we were exhausted so we just accepted it.
It was now around 2:30am… and considering we had dog food and some fresh squeezed orange juice we didn’t want to lose, we now had to wait AGAIN for someone to come and bring us a refrigerator that worked. Ay yi yi!!! The guy who came didn’t know a lick of English and left a total sopping wet mess behind! OMG… it was at this point that we expected Ashton Kutcher to jump from the closet with a camera crew and shout ‘YOU’VE BEEN PUNKED!’ and never ever have we ever wanted that so badly! But no, not even close. This was dead serious… this was real. This was happening. This was clearly NO JOKE.
For the record, I don’t mind shoddy hotels for people who are looking to save a buck and suck it up because it’s their budget and they’re okay with it… in fact, there’s a place for everything and I have no issue with that at all. What I do have a problem with is CLAIMING YOU’RE A 3.5 STAR HOTEL WHEN YOU’RE BARELY A 2 STAR HOTEL. Claiming you’re something you’re not online with FRAUDULENT pictures and souped up reviews is just DEAD WRONG.
I feel that as consumers we should have some better re-​course for places that do business like this! Taking advantage of exhausted travelers coming to and fro L.A. and exposing them to unsafe, hazardous, unhealthy living conditions should be ILLEGAL and there should be a way to be reimbursed if you find yourself forced to stay in a place like this because you believed the star-​rating and pics online and then showed up to find the complete opposite. I believe this is CRIMINAL and MUST BE STOPPED. I take this very seriously and feel that as consumers but more importantly as PEOPLE that we have to demand more and stand up for what’s right in the face of these scrupulous corporations that see us as nothing more than a number on their quarterly reports.
BTW, I found out that the hotel is up for sale and that they are letting it go to hell in a handbasket because they don’t want to put any money into it prior to the sale.
Final Thoughts? RUN don’t walk from this hell-​hole. This is a clear case of STAR-​FRAUD!!!

I have posted pictures of everything I state in this article. Here is a quick review if you do not want to read the entire review. BED BUGS, FILTHY, TRASH IN HALLWAYS, BROKEN BEDS, CRACKED CEILING, ELECTRICAL FIRE HAZARDS, ROACHES FILTHY, OUTDATED AMENITIES, DID I SAY FILTHY, FILTHY AND FILTHY. If it were possible for me to give this hotel negative 5 stars I would. We booked our reservation for one nights stay. Upon arriving at the hotel parking is $ 25 dollars so luckily we took a cab from the airport (which has a 15 dollar minimum regardless if we are going across the street)
Once we have arrived the lobby was clean and looked like most hotels should. Staff were courteous during check in and the process was pretty smooth. This concludes the end of my positive review and the only thing I have done is checked in.
We received our key card and board the elevator to the 4^th floor. As soon as the elevator doors opened we were immediately hit with a pungent odor the equates roughly to baby feces and dead bodies mixed. The floor throughout the entire hallways is littered with coffee mugs, plates with food and roaches on them, balloons from MOTHERS DAY (roughly a month and a half prior to our check in), ironing boards, mini frigs, etc. It looked like we were walking through a deserted abandoned hotel. Bugs were crawling on the plates with food left in the hallways.
We came to our door and realized that it was already opened. The floor was filthy, and there were no pillow covers on the pillows. The shower curtain looked as if a 5 yr old finger painter used it as his canvas. The roof had very large cracks in it in multiple areas. We immediately called down to the front desk and told them the condition of their hotel room. They sent a Rep up to our room who admitted that it was filthy even though house clean supposedly «cleaned the room» He apologized for the state of cleanliness throughout the entire FLOOR. I was shocked at how not a single person from the hotel could realized that the radissan was in the same condition as a rent for hour inner city motel. He issued us cards to a new «clean» room.
New room, Same condition. We were now on the 8^th floor. Floors looked as if they have not been vacuumed in months. The bathtub had multiple large chunks missing out of the porcelain and there were large clumps of hair on the bathroom ceiling. How that is possible i do not know. The floor in the actual bedroom was filthy and the floor was wet. The electronic mattresses did not work and one tilted to the right to where you could not even lay in it. Every piece of electronic equipment was wrapped tangled twisted and then plugged into the wall. Best of all, There were bed bugs!!! My girlfriend and I had to sleep fully clothed hoodies to socks to prevent some disease from touching our body. It was no 1 A. M and we attempted to get a few hours sleep. Luckily we couldn’t do that to the explosive sounds of doors slamming throughout the night.
We went downstairs and complained a few hours later to where another rep came to our room to look at the deplorable conditions. Again he apologized and admitted that the rooms and hallways were filthy. I asked how a chain as large as the raddissan offer such substandard performance. He said he didn’t know and continued to apologize for the state of filth the entire hotel was in above the 1^st floor. We were refunded totally and left to go get as many shots as we could to prevent the mass amount of disease we possible came in contact with.
Final: there is a courtyard Marriott right next door as well a bunch of other hotels. STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE. If you are worried about saving money, trust me the extra 10 – 20 dollars will be spent better at a competitively price hotel right next door. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL AT ALL COST. I also posted pictures of everything I have stated in this review to include the bed bugs. AGAIN STAY AWAY

I have mixed feelings for the Radisson. Most of my Unilocal reviews I would round up, but this time I’m rounding down and rating the Radisson at LAX low.
I’ve been to the Radisson twice for two banquets/​retirement work parties. I’ve never stayed at the Radisson either, so this review is based mainly on their crappy VALET parking service, their parking situation and their banquet/​conference rooms.
First off… when you have a decent sized hotel, you better have enough parking spaces to cater to your customers, even the ones that aren’t staying at your hotel. When I’m attending an event at your hotel, you better have enough space to accommodate my vehicle for valet parking. The Radisson didn’t. I even spoke to the valet manager and he insisted on having us drive to another lot and the hotel shuttle would bring us over. I wasn’t parking somewhere else and trying to haul all my projector and gear in a suit and tie over in a shuttle. A $ 20 spot for 2 cars didn’t even sway his decision. Luckily we found parking on the street next to the hotel and walked only a few yards. We saved valet tip, I saved the $ 20 bill and enjoyed the retirement party.
As for the conference rooms, they seem ok but a bit dated. The service at the party was pretty good, the bar lacked a bit also. Radisson, with so many other choices in the area, I’d go elsewhere.

Wow, despite some brutal reviews my two previous stays at Radisson LAX were very nice. The service I received was top-​notch from the Front Desk to Maid Service. Love the restaurant Palmira — great food and service. The suites are huge and very comfortable but the furniture is dated. The Sleep Number Adjustable beds are very comfortable, clean bathrooms, and flat screens. They have a great bar and lounge area with more TV’s and they serve Starbucks. Like many LAX hotels there is no self-​parking, only $ 25 valet parking (with ins and outs).
The staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcomed, all requests are attended to promptly and I have no complaints. I simply suggest that the room décor be updated.

Por fin me decido a escribir mi primera reseña en Los Angeles y tenía que ser la de este hotel. Estoy pasando aquí nueve largas semanas haciendo el Bikram Yoga Teacher Training, ya llevo casi tres y este hotel es como mi casa. No es un hotel de superlujo ni de diseño, pero sí es lo bastante confortable como para que me encuentre a gusto. La cama es grande (queen size), la ducha tiene presión y es muy agradable. La piscina está bien, aunque no entiendo por qué no hay duchas alrededor, algo que en España creo que es obligatorio, parece que aquí no. El personal es muy amable y, como son todos hispanos, nos entendemos de maravilla. La comida del buffet está rica y sale barata, te pones lo que quieres y pagas al peso. Supongo que podría ser un hotel más moderno y bonito, pero la verdad es que no se me ocurre ninguna pega que ponerle, será porque le estoy cogiendo cariño…
