They ruined our anniversary night
Pros:

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I have ever had.

I booked Avalon based on the photos and description online. For nearly $500 per night, I expected the beautiful boutique hotel that was advertised. Instead, after check-in, we were taken to a completely separate building across the street that looked nothing like the property shown in the photos. It felt more like an old apartment building converted into a motel.

The room contained little more than a bed, a nightstand, and a TV. It was completely different from what had been advertised.

We immediately returned to the front desk and refused to stay. We left and booked another hotel that same night. When I requested a refund, I was denied. As a result, we lost $500 for a room we never even stayed in.

Afterward, I found numerous guest complaints describing experiences similar to ours. What surprised me even more was seeing negative reviews followed by dozens of perfect 10/10 ratings, which raises serious questions.

This experience felt misleading from start to finish. Guests should receive the hotel they were shown and paid for, not a completely different building across the street.

What is especially disappointing is that these complaints are clearly not new, yet nothing seems to change. The hotel appears fully aware of these recurring issues but makes no meaningful effort to resolve them or accommodate affected guests.

Superb service, great spot, hope to come back on a personal trip
Pros:

I chose this hotel, shockingly, not because I was aiming for a Beverly Hills location but more so proximity to the client, I was there to visit. This hotel was the nearest and, alas, I landed here.

Work trips are not the same as personal trips so I could not relax and enjoy as much as I would on my own time, but I am forcing myself to write a review (don't usually) because I really want to highlight that the service at this hotel is outstanding. I was in and out all day, all hours, and every single staff member was SO welcoming, so warm, so pleasant and helpful. I feel like service has really lagged worldwide in the last few years and I absolutely noticed the difference here.

I don't know if the Avalon is just hiring well or training well or, as I suspect, a blend of both: But this is an a-class team and I really appreciated it.

Also: the hotel is great. I wished I could have hung at the pool beyond a quick bite but that whole space was great, my room was immaculate and MCM vibes with a pretty patio, and the neighborhood felt safe.

Hoping to come back on my own time. Thanks, Avalon.

A hotel with true old-school Hollywood vibes with a modern twist
Pros:

This hotel is perfectly located in Beverly Hills, with a pleasant and very safe 10 to 15 minute walk to the heart of Beverly Hills.

The hotel itself is much smaller than it appears in the photos, but that actually adds to its charm. It feels like staying in an old apartment building for Hollywood stars, which fittingly was its original purpose back in the 1940s.

The rooms are excellent in terms of both size and amenities, and the included tea and coffee at breakfast is a really appreciated touch.

What truly makes this hotel stand out is its atmosphere. The design carefully respects the building’s original legacy, making it feel full of character rather than just another soulless chain hotel.

Avalon, 12/10
Pros:

Avalon is a gem! Such a special place. Yes, it’s conveniently located, well appointed, great amenities, and delicious onsite restaurant that draws hotel guests and locals alike. But what truly sets it apart are the people that make this place run. Shout out to Michael!

Michael is always friendly, kind, helpful and punctual. Emerson, Carlo, Christi, and Addison are also wonderful. It’s clear staffing is a priority here and they take customer service seriously. Highly recommend Avalon for fun and business travel.

Great Hotel, don’t miss it!
Pros:

What a great destination. Some of the most accommodating staff you will ever meet. From the front desk with Kalia, Jeremy and Christy to the attentive wait staff and Michael, Art and Chris at the valet parking you will enjoy your stay. Poolside breakfast is a great way to start your day. Don’t miss it.
