The Millennium Biltmore Hotel, Los Angeles is located at the corner of Fifth and Grand, in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. The hotel has a health spa and is located near the city's theaters, shopping and restaurants. This hotel was the largest and grandest west of Chicago when it opened in 1923. It has been well preserved and restored, the Biltmore is enjoying a $10 million renovation. Some of the amenities that you will find here are Concierge, Fitness Center, Parking, Lounge, Laundry Service, and Restaurants. Hairdryer, TV, Iron, Dataports, Alarm Clock, Air Conditioning in addition to other items can be found in each room of this hotel.
This Hotel was designed by the same firm that designed the Waldorf Astoria in New York. The exterior of the building in made in the Beaux Arts style and many of the ceilings in the ballrooms were painted byGiovanni Smeraldi (a restaurant in the Biltmore is named in his honor).
Even if you dont stay here you have to at least go into the Biltmore and have "high tea" or stroll through the hotel and peak into the ballrooms and check out its grandure.
On a recent trip to LA we were exhausted from all hte walking we did, we stopped at the Biltmore and had some coffee and relaxed abit. It was very interesting to see the ladies in their hats and nicely dressed having their 4 o'clock tea. It is something of a tradition.

| Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles: Great hotel, location not suitable for tourists

We stayed here on 02 November 2006 for three nights.
The rooms are fine for an old hotel, the size of the room was adequate and yes the bathrooms are small, but what do you expect from an old hotel? We have stayed in brand new hotels with smaller bathrooms! The rooms were clean and serviced every day. We were in room 840 which looked out the side of the hotel. Noise was a bit of a problem with traffic but no more than stopping in a London hotel. If you are a light sleeper you might want to pack some earplugs.
The reception staff were fine and the concierge was very helpful.
The only problem with this hotel is its location. As we were only in LA for three nights we wanted to see all the sights. By being downtown it took a long time to get anywhere, even with the Metro.
One option on the menu was a breakfast buffet for $20 + tax which is slightly steep compared to other hotels we stayed in, but there was plenty of choice. The service was fine though the waiters could have been a little friendlier.
The hotel is beautiful in decor and the history of the place is interesting. Worth getting up early from the jet lag and having a walk around.
The hotel has been used in famous films inernally as well as externally.
The hotel has a spa complex but we did not have time to use this though it was open till late which was nice.
I would recommend anyone staying for business to stay here, but anyone going to LA for leisure to pick the location of their hotel wisely that is unless you want to stay in a hotel that is beautifully decorated and has a bit of Hollywood history and glamour.

| Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles: The Granduer on Grand

Staying in the Biltmore L.A. was similar to those old Hotels in Washington D.C., with the granduer and detailed history that would remind one of what the Titanic must have been like. Complimented with the exceptional valet, check-in, and room service, the history and charm of the Biltmore is the staple of why one would spend the extra money to stay in downtown L.A. This hotel had played host to the first few dozen Acadamy Awards, and proudly displays photgraphs taken at such events years ago. The Presidential Entourage of years past has also passed through this Grand hotel. While the room was not as large as many of the cookie-cutter suites interstate friendly suites, it was elegant and draped in detail. If you have the chance, for business or pleasure,I'd recomment the Biltmore L.A.
The hsitory and magnificant black and white photos. In years past the who's who of celebrity and power frequented the Biltmore. Pershing Square is directly behind the hotel, and everything L.A. (Staples Center, museums, CitiBank Tower, library) is within walking distance.
