HOLLYWOOD<br />
METROPOLITAN<br />
HOTEL AND<br />
PLAZA<br />
The <strong>Hollywood</strong> Metropolitan Hotel and Plaza,<br />
located on <strong>Hollywood</strong>’s famed Sunset Strip, is<br />
just minutes away from the world famous<br />
Universal Studios Theme Park and Citywalk,<br />
and a host of other nearby tourist attractions.<br />
The 12-story, 90-room facility opened in<br />
1984, just in time to accommodate visitors from<br />
around the world who came to Southern<br />
California for the Los Angeles Olympic Games.<br />
At the time, there were no comparable hotels<br />
available in the area.<br />
The boutique hotel boasts 90 tastefully<br />
appointed guestrooms and suites with wall-towall<br />
windows affording spectacular views of<br />
<strong>Hollywood</strong>. Each room is brimming with<br />
amenities such as in-room mini-refrigerators,<br />
satellite TV, and more.<br />
Guests enjoy a complementary continental<br />
breakfast each morning. Other services available<br />
to our guests are a mini market and beauty salon<br />
complete with an in-house masseuse. There’s<br />
also a travel agency and tour desk available on<br />
the premises as well.<br />
The beauty and charm of the <strong>Hollywood</strong><br />
Metropolitan Hotel and Plaza is evident just<br />
within its threshold, where an oval aquarium<br />
and sitting library offer a tranquil oasis for<br />
weary travelers after a full day of shopping<br />
and sightseeing.<br />
Two restaurants round out the hotel’s long list<br />
of amenities, accommodations, and services.<br />
Havana on Sunset features Cuban cuisine. And<br />
the view from atop the hotel from the Vista<br />
Restaurant is simply unbeatable, as is the savory<br />
selection of food served.<br />
Business travelers will find over 5,700<br />
square feet available for meeting and banquet<br />
facilities convenient for organizing and hosting<br />
seminars and conferences. Photocopier and<br />
voice mail services round out the conveniences<br />
accessible to corporate guests.<br />
In addition to its proximity to Universal<br />
Studios, the <strong>Hollywood</strong> Metropolitan Hotel is<br />
just minutes away from<br />
trendy Melrose Avenue<br />
and Mann’s Chinese<br />
Theatre. Other popular<br />
landmarks such as the<br />
<strong>Hollywood</strong> Bowl and posh<br />
Beverly Hills and Rodeo<br />
Drive are a short car ride<br />
away, while Disneyland,<br />
Knott’s Berry Farm and<br />
Venice Beach are also freeway<br />
close.<br />
The marvelous rooms,<br />
abundant amenities and<br />
close proximity to the most<br />
popular attractions in the<br />
Los Angeles area make the<br />
<strong>Hollywood</strong> Metropolitan<br />
Hotel and Plaza one of<br />
<strong>Hollywood</strong>’s best values for<br />
travelers.<br />
❖<br />
