I just returned from a quick business trip where I stayed at The Brentwood Inn. From beginning to end, Kanuja did everything she could to make my stay the best possible - checking me in early, offering refreshments when she learned that I hadn't had lunch, suggesting things to do, printing out my boarding pass, and being so polite. I even got a message saying that there had been a wake-up call request that they thought was left over from the previous guest. They cancelled it but asked that I call back if I still wanted the wake-up call.

The room was clean, comfortable, and very 21st century with the plasma TV, remote control for HVAC, a two-alarm clock radio, and a high-tech system for preventing folks from leaving the lights on when leaving the room. I agree that the bathroom, at least in my room, was on the small side, but it was fine for the single traveler. Even the shower had its own ventilation system. Plus there were mirrors galore, and free high-speed Internet access in the room (they'll supply Ethernet cables if you don't have one).

I really enjoyed the continental breakfast, especially since there was my favorite - oatmeal! The location was quiet and within walking distance of both nice neighborhoods where you can safely get some exercise and the farmers' market on Sunday mornings.

Normally, I stay in the Westwood area, but I will definitely The Brentwood Inn to my list. This former motor lodge has been in the family for two decades, and they definitely know how to treat guests like royalty.

Truly a rare find in the heart of Los Angeles! We booked a large reservation for a UCLA conference and were more than pleased by how convenient and elegant the hotel was. In short, we could never have survived without JC and his incredible staff!

“a true gem”

3/3 found this review helpful

I had the pleasure of staying at the brentwood inn for a month while on business. Kanuja and JC, the owners, are an absolute delight. They have put their heart and soul into making sure every single detail of your visit is perfect. If you need something, ANYTHING, they will find a way to get it to you. They removed the feather bedding in my room before I even arrived and replaced it with down-alternative. They even went so far as to place a hepa air filter in my room (I have bad allergies). Talk about service?!!!!! I have never met such kind, generous, helpful people in my life!

The rooms are impeccably clean and pretty with great beds, linens, a plasma tv, fresh flowers and mini fridge. My favorite part was my corner room, having lots of windows I could open-- it felt like home! oh wait- maybe it was the aveda products that are replenished daily?!!

Every morning they have a little buffet of fresh muffins, croissants, danishes, oatmeal, yogurt and fruit along with teas and coffee. Right off the lobby/front office there is a pretty little patio with cute smith and hawken furniture and a little water fall where you can enjoy your breakfast and read the NY times in the sun. After breakfast you can talk a long walk in the nice surrounding neighborhoods.

I truly felt like I was at home here-- I practically was after a month!!
The Brentwood Inn is a true gem in such a busy city-
Thanks again Kanuja, JC, and Evan, you guys are amazing !

Namaste my friends :) hope to see you again one day! steph

“Can't get your money back if you cancel”

We were supposed to stay at the Brentwood Inn on September 23, but my fiance got sick and we had to cancel. The Brentwood Inn would not give us a refund or even let us apply our payment to another night. That cost us more than $200! Be prepared to lose your full payment if you get sick on a Sunday and you don't have a doctor's note to "prove" it.

“Great hotel, Excellent Staff”

My husband and I spent three nights at the Brentwood Inn recently while we were in town for a wedding. We were looking for a reasonably priced hotel, and a family member recommended the Brentwood. We were thrilled with the hotel's location (minutes from Santa Monica and a beautiful drive up highway 1 to Malibu), clean (though slighly small) rooms, and a fantastically helpful and welcoming staff. We highly recommend it, and will certainly be back ourselves!
