Top Central Malibu Hotel Reviews

The Anza - A Calabasas Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Todo muy bien"

The Huntley Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"For some reason the app does not let me select 5 stars. Excellent location, great room, super clean, great breakfast options, excellent amenities including fast and friendly valet led by Franklin. In summary a no brainer and would stay again and again. Loved the boutique feel coupled with great service…"

Hotel Beverly Terrace - Beverly Hills/West Hollywood

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great stay and would for sure recommend to anyone, staff was extremely helpful, I know some reviews state small rooms and loudness but to be honest it felt perfect to me, bed was extremely comfortable and I slept amazing every night! Plenty of lights in the room and dark curtains to block outside. 10/10 recommend and will be coming back!"

Olivia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The bathroom was very well appointed. Everything was well within reach and yet not crowded. The heavy shower stall doors were welcome. The shower itself was tricky—when you first turned it on, water came from above, but after you adjusted the water temperature, it only came through the hose. I am disabled so I basically use a chair in a shower, but the single bar on the shower stall wall was good enough. The “problems” were a) didn’t know if we were allowed to use the bathrobes in the closet and b) didn’t know where the ice machine was."
