Set in seven leafy acres, and with a 50-year tradition of serving guests, The Garland is relaxing, family friendly, and doesn’t skimp on style. Take in its relaxed retro vibe and comfy style. Eating at the restaurant here is, as they say, like an evening at an old friend's house. Request a table out on the deck for dining amongst the trees and plants, catch up over a drink in a cosy booth in the lounge or grab a seat at the bar. Check out the weekly programme of activities too — you could join a guided walk, watch a film by the pool or enjoy some complimentary wine tasting. All this, just minutes from LA’s hotspots. As a Preferred Hotel Partner of Universal Studios Hollywood℠, you’re just a free shuttle ride from the parks, so don't forget to purchase your park tickets too for the ride(s) of your life!

The restaurant provides well cooked meals and amongst all the great staff our server Emily was outstanding. For tourists the hotel provides a shuttle to access the rest of LA and Universal Studios(you can see it from some of the rooms). Food is consistently good.

Stayed for two nights. Comfortable and well equipped room. The pool looked nice, we didn’t get chance to try it as we were short on time. Used uber to go and visit the sights.

Shuttle every hour to universal from hotel which is free. Breakfast available but as we were at universal for two days, we did not have breakfast. There is nothing around the hotel to walk too or see but very convenient for universal.

Clean room, good food at poolside restaurant and a fun family friendly vibe. At check in - the front desk was very accommodating (big shout out to David). He even followed up once in our room and again the following morning - making sure everything is going well with our stay. A side note; upon leaving, the groundsmen were on ladders cleaning the light fixtures in the grounds/parking areas. Might not seem like a big deal….but I appreciate the attention to detail on maintaining a property.

We particularly enjoyed coming back after a busy day, sitting by the pool, and watching the movies they put on. The staff were really personable as well.
Complimentary shuttle service to Universal which is useful and runs every hour. Lots of other attractions close by also.
If I was ever to visit Los Angeles again, I would insist on stopping at The Garland.
