Every aspect that makes up The Garland has been handpicked to showcase a sophisticated retro aesthetic. Whether it’s the comfortable leather chairs in the lobby, the warming stone fireplace, geometric furnishings or quirky statues, the vibe here is old-school cool. This boutique hotel is in a great spot, too. It’s just two miles away from Universal Studios – and offers a complimentary shuttle there – while the Griffith Observatory and the Hollywood Sign are a 20-minute drive away.
Families should hop on the shuttle to Universal Studios Hollywood to take in film-themed rollercoasters, shows and characters – and kids and adults alike will be completely be spellbound by The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™. Meanwhile, culture vultures can take a 15-minute drive to The Getty to enjoy the art, architecture and gardens dotted across its two locations. If you can, catch an act at the Hollywood Bowl, or head to the coast for Santa Monica Pier to discover arcades, fairground rides and an aquarium.
When you fancy a relaxing day, The Garland’s schedule of events and activities is sure to keep entertained. Daily games include courtyard sessions of Uno, Taboo or Cards Against Humanity, or there are early-morning urban walks through the neighbourhood if you want to explore. Kids will love the ‘dive-in’ movies shown by the pool, while adults can take advantage of the happy hours, Californian craft beer tastings and calming outdoor yoga classes.
There’s a neighbourly atmosphere at The Front Yard, which serves shareable bites and to-go options when you’re on the move.
A relaxed ambience abounds at the Lobby Bar, where you can sip an award-winning cocktail in the laidback lounge or by the pool, and catch a game on the big screen.
Rooms at The Garland have a retro style, with classic Seventies patterns on the floors and walls, as well as geometric curtains and bright colour pops. Some rooms have comfy sofas and spacious desks, while kids’ rooms feature contemporary bunk beds and educational artwork.
