About

Palihotel Melrose

Palihotel Melrose occupies a building dating from 1912, giving it a sense of history that’s rare among the area’s newer hotels. The interior leans on warm wood, a cool courtyard, and a design that guests consistently describe as unique, trendy, and impeccably decorated. Rooms range from Standard King to Suites, several with balconies and bathtubs.

The location is a recurring highlight, placing you on Melrose Avenue in the West Hollywood area. From here, The Grove, Farmers Market, high-end stores, and a major bus route are within walking distance. The small scale of the hotel means the front desk is particularly attentive, and the on-site restaurant and bar add to the convivial feel.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Location that wins every time — On Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, a short walk to The Grove, Farmers Market, high-end shops, restaurants, bars, and a major bus route.
  • Distinctive, design-led rooms — Guests repeatedly note the tasteful decor, use of wood, and the cool courtyard, with balconies and bathtubs on offer in select rooms.
  • Attentive, personable staff — The small scale of the hotel lets the front desk be unusually responsive and helpful, something guests call out again and again.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Rooms score low on cleanliness — The 'Rooms and cleanliness' category sits at 6/10, and a review flags 'Cleanness' as a weak point.
  • Wi-Fi can be unreliable — One guest reported the internet did not work, and noted a 'bare minimum' feel to parts of the stay.
  • Price feels high for the class — With rates from £302 and a Price/service rating of 8/10, some may find the value debatable, especially given the mixed cleanliness feedback.
