Los Angeles is not a city you stay in the centre of — there is no centre in the European sense, and distances are long. The decision that matters is which part of the trip you are optimising for: beach, studios, museums or nightlife. Pick the wrong side and you will spend two hours a day on a freeway.
Per night for two adults, taxes and fees included where the property reports them. Based on the 388 bookable properties we found for a two-night midweek stay a month ahead.
