Room was very clean, seemed recently updated and very comfortable. Decor and design was inviting. The pool courtyard is very charming. It was nice having a restaurant and bar on the premises as well. Staff was very friendly. We were in town for my teen and his friend to attend an event at Universal. I dropped them off and hung out in room and worked all day. I was very comfortable and a short drive from Universal for pick up later that evening.

The name of the listing on Booking is different than the actual name of the hotel. The hotel signage says "Hollywood Franklin" which was a bit confusing when I arrived (Booking calls it The Adler currently). The courtyard was noisy which was fine during the day, but annoying at 7:30am when someone decided to take a long and loud phone call out there. Also, folks staying at the hotel were using the railings and pool fencing as their own personal drying racks which definitely brought down the ambiance factor. It might be nicer if the hotel installed clotheslines in the large showers. Last thing I'll say is that the wine selection at the bar was horrible and either I have really different tastes or the purchaser doesn't drink wine.

Room was good, but very humid. something we could not remedy. liked the location of the pool, in the center of hotel, with all rooms outside of it. Location of hotel was ok as far as proximity to other sites, but felt a little "sketchy" with some of the characters around. Good diner attached to hotel. not same ownership.

I liked having secure parking, but did not like the idea of valet for every interaction with my vehicle. felt good for safety, but the price is pretty high, and having to ask for your vehicle every time seemed odd, especially with expected tip at each time.

Great location with excellent public transit connections (walking distance to metro and dash and bus stops right in front of the hotel. Super comfortable bed. Spacious room and bathroom (was in an executive king room). Helpful staff. Restaurants and grocery store within walking distance. The diner in the restaurant was delicious for breakfast with wide and varied menu. Would definitely recommend and stay again. The room was very well laid out with room for luggage and the bathroom had room for toiletries around the sink and a shelf in the shower. The shower was very large. Another huge plus for me was the filtered water bottle refill station in the hallway!

Want more spots to hang towels.

The location is great, walking distance of the center attractions (walk of fame, Chinese theater, Dolby theater) and a great spot for a Hollywood sign picture (3 streets over the hotel - Beachwood Dr). Close to the metro station (red B line which can lead to the yellow E line with final stop at Santa Monica, very convenient). The room was spacious, beds were comfortable, big bathroom with a great shower (great pressure). The decoration of the room and hotel as a whole were a plus for the theme of the city.

The beds were a little small for a group of tall people and the room doesn't really have any place to hang stuff (towels, bags, etc)

The location of the hotel was excellent, walking distance to the walk of fame, TCL Chinese Theatre, Hollywood Bowl (about 40 mins). Easy access to Metro and buses which are great for some locations you may want to visit, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Westfield shopping, the Original Farmers market (the Grove), Griffith park, and will cost €1.75 each per journey. Buy a tap card at Vine St station and top it up when needed. Public transport is very safe. We read reviews which were very negative towards it, but this is not true, it is absolutely fine. Uber is also very reliable if you prefer or for those journeys that are too difficult by metro or bus like Universal Studios, Warner Bros. We got an Uber to the start of the trek of the Hollywood sign for $11, and then we walked back to the hotel, which took an hour and a half, from the sign. There is a diner next door to the Hotel which is decent, we had breakfast there a couple of mornings. Eggs Benedict will cost around $18. There are a few other places we liked for breakfast, the Breakfast Club and iHop (which is a bit of a walk away) We found dining in the area not great, but maybe that’s just because we didn’t know where to look, we normally ate wherever we were visiting that day. Eating is that bit more expensive to the UK or Ireland. Staff everywhere in LA are very friendly and welcoming. The staff at the Adler Hotel were exceptional, especially one person, of whom I didn’t get his name. He was so helpful with advice and directions, and anything we needed. He even had plastic cutlery on the ready for when my daughters order their Chipotle takeout and forgot to ask for cutlery. He really did make our stay enjoyable. Everything about the hotel was great, the rooms were a bit small for the three of us as the beds took up most of the space, so not much room to walk around. The beds were super comfortable, the bathroom very big and lovely shower. We had a hairdryer and iron in the room.

The rooms were a little small with two beds, making it difficult to move around as there were three of us sharing The air-con is loud, but this didn’t bother us as we were so tired from all our walking during the day, and the beds are so comfy ☺️

The location and boutique feel as well as the history. Lilly’s and Clark St. Diner!!! Having on-site parking is awesome!

It’s not really a dislike but our room had no place to hang clothes, no iron and no ironing board. And so think we were in a remodeled room! Bathrooms are great thought! The refrigerator was loud and looks like something we bought overseas!!! And all of the coffee provided was decaf! Elevator needs some attention!

The hotel is well located. The Hollywood/Vine station is close, like 5 or 6 blocks. The hotel restaurant is good but If you want other options you can go to the Hollywood Ave. If is breakfast there is a Dunkin’ Donuts in the avenue. There is also a store very close to the hotel in case you need something else. Rooms are big and nice with AC. Cleaning service is not included so you may have to collect your bags and drop them in a bin at the end of your hall. Even that all looks comfortable and clean. Is good value. I didn’t go to the pool so I can’t say anything about that. I went with my wife and my baby. The only thing you have to be safe is when you cross under the bridge to go to the Hollywood Ave.

My friend planned an "Old Hollywood" themed trip. May 2025. This hotel was picked randomly (for price). The pictures and reviews do NOT sum up what a fortunate choice The Adler was! It is an incredible piece of Hollywood history. Staying here was like getting a bonus attraction included in the price. Ask about the secret stairwell. All the memorabilia on the walls and the history of Clark's Diner (plus the good food and great service - thank you Jasmine). Spectacular QPR! Quality-for-Price ratio! The rooms were clean and comfortable. Comfy beds - we had a double queen room with Clint Eastwood mural. Steve McQueen in the bathroom. Not a rich plush hotel but a unique experience. I would always recommend this over a regular budget place such as we did on a previous trip for about the same price. Book it now!

Not a deal breaker, but the access via crosswalk is sketchy and inconvenient. Nothing can be done about this though. It is fairly convenient to the main Hollywood tourist center. We don't mind being total tourist geeks. That's our jam. Parking costs are always a bummer, but the valet staff were always available and super helpful. Plus, while expensive, in & out all day at no extra cost. When to tip them? I don't know. We did several times. The location is across the street from a historic condo complex. Another bonus.

It was comfortable and pretty and the bathroom was huge and really nice. The staff was nice. The attached dinner had a really nice breakfast, and it seemed to be a really popular diner in the area. The location was perfect! We walked around Hollywood without having to worry about parking, and the two days we went to Universal Studios, it was a super short and easy drive.

Our bathroom window was wedged open, but the temperature was so mild that we didn't really think about it. Also, you have to pay extra for valet parking everyday, no choice for free parking. I really think that parking should be included at a hotel.

The room we booked was awesome. So much space that helped us having a good time when going back to the hotel. The parking is really good (but very expensive) and the staff is really nice. There's also a restaurant in the hotel that is not too expensive and have good meals. Also, if you want to go to the Universal Studios, it's an awesome option, as it's so close to it (10 minutes by car). It's also reaaaally close to the walk of fame (5 minutes by car)

The only thing that I would complain is about the shower. Everytime we need to take shower it took tooooo much time to heat the water, so there were some days we needed to wake up 15 minutes before we would like to just to wait for the water to be at least ok to start our shower (we do not like to waste water this much).
