We stayed 5 nights? and we have no complaints The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating The rooms were amazing

The breakfast was delicious (the bar with omelettes and Belgian waffles? yes, absolutely!) Even the parking attendants were nice The hotel is located close to all the places we wanted to visit Griffith Park is very close The sunsets are amazing!

We had the perfect stay Everywhere we walked was a photo op The bridge for the family wedding photo was on point

We were there for a wedding and it was 5 star stay Everyone went out of their way to see that we had anything we wanted The wedding location was beautiful It is historic and every detail is well appointed The reception was grand Great dinner, the desert table was second to none and the band was perfect They knew how to play while we ate then had the perfect song list for dancing NO rolling on the river or we are family cheesy tunes Sign of a great band Afterwards we had a beautiful spot to catch up before going to our room and sending up for a late night bite with room service Our room was classically beautiful a tad small but it is a really old hotel We’ll be back!

Stylish and refined in its lusciouness… well kept, well manicured with charming gardens, excellent service and services Spa was fab!And get this, the power went out in the area in the middle of my massage and they calmly and sweetly brought in candles to finish and comped me the massage And had backup power so we still had basics

Very nice experience that could have been uncomfortable otherwise

Very comfortable rooms with excellent service overall The only reason why I did not give 5 stars is because when we checked in the room had not been cleaned properly There was spilled rice on the carpet and a light bulb missing in a lamp

This was promptly fixed but it makes one wonder about attention to detail as this is not a cheap hotel For the rest of our stay the housekeeping was excellent We found the valet service quite fast and enjoyed the restaurant for breakfast

Aron Hughes

If you are visiting the LA area and are looking for a safe and comfortable stay than this is a solid optionYou are going to get the amenities that you need (unless you need dry cleaning on Memorial Day weekend)The rooms were standard with a mostly clean facilities

The bed and pillows were not the most comfortableStaying here requires you to Valet park your car every time which can get annoying if you are in and out like we wereThe restaurant serves basics for high prices and it would be beneficial to go out for breakfast or dinnerAlthough they state the coffee cart is open at 6, we were unable to get coffee in the morning before heading to DisneylandMy suggestion would be stay here if you need a comfortable and affordable option

Lauree martin

This Hilton might be the worst Hilton you can stay at The hotel is loud, dirty, and has homeless people hanging out inside The staff is some of the rudest people I have ever experienced at any hotel

The rooms are old, dirty, and small; you can hear everything outside your room all night The breakfast that was once free now is not, the valet is expensive, and it takes about 45min to get your car I’ve had better experiences at a Motel 6 Save your time and money and stay anyplace but here

The hotel is clearly under new management/ownership which affected our stay along with the remodeling The staff is very green and unknowledgeable The phones don’t work

The rooms are smaller than other hotels in the area I’d recommend looking elsewhere for the price point Perhaps with time, they’ll tighten up their services, amenities, and staff training but I would not consider staying here again

Anthony Sotelo

This hotel is terrible While it has potential, it should not be open during remodeling The bar was not open, the halls smell like mildew and the overall amenities are not comparable to other hotels with similar price points

When booking it doesn’t mention that only 2 floors were available and that the rooms are very tiny We called and left a message to the manager and received no call back No room service unless you ask I highly recommend you stay elsewhere

Neilou Heidari

I reserved a room block at Hotel Constance for myself and guests for my wedding weekend The hotel rep reassured us that the hotel would reopen before our wedding day, however, a month before our event, told us that they would not reopen in time This left us scrambling to find a new hotel

Not only that, Hotel Constance charged us a deposit but failed to return it back to us – nobody is answering phones or emails I am calling on management/ ownership/whomever to return our deposit ASAP

I’m only giving one star because I can’t give zero My entire stay at this hotel was terrible from start to end When we first arrived we were given a room that was not cleaned

We walked in and the room was turned upside down The new room we were given was across from a gas station so it was loud all night We were told we have to request 24hrs prior for our room to be cleaned or towels I scheduled for fresh towels and never received them When I called to inquire I was told we were never added to the list The rooms were poorly light The air conditioner also broke in the middle of the night All of these combined made the hotel stay bad However the icing on the cake was when someone came into my room without permission Our suitcases were ransacked Personal items pulled out Jewelry gone through and $100 stolen I immediately reported this to the front desk A “report” was taken and I was told to expect a follow up call Saturday When I called to follow up the manager on duty had no idea of my complaint and I now I have to wait until Monday for the general manager to investigate The hotel employees are thieves and the management is awful A trip ruined by their lack of service Never go here unless you want to be robbed!

Ty W

Highly recommend this location Then only reason for loosing a star is no real blankets and the hours for cafe etc are not the best Great staff , nice facility and great location

Some things are really dated but understand that with the way things are resources are limited We have stayed multiple times and will definitely be back especially because we get to bring our fur baby with us and the great restaurants, bars and shops walking distance away Highly recommend

Stephanie S

1st room we were given has wet red spots all over the carpet Looked like they tried cleaning it but it was really wet still The ac was horrible and the room was just dirty looking

We asked for a different room and that room was great Not sure why they still book people in a dirty room with no ac when they have others available Also had to get the bill adjusted because they charged for parking when the site we booked on said free parking Pool is not as amazing as pictures make it out to be BUT great location within walking distance to lots of restaurants

Jacqueline Herdman

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel! Rooms were spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable I always wipe down rooms with Clorox wipes, and I was really pleased to have all my wiped come away clean! Water pressure was great, and the AC worked perfectly I was staying while my SO was at Alhambra Hospital and was happy with how centrally located hotel is to the hospital, stores and food

And their free breakfast was fantastic!!! Thank you for a great stay!

The rooms were large and cleanOur room on the top floor, had a small fridge and microwaveThe bed was comfortable and everything look clean, even after checking closelyOur room was quiet from road and other guest even though we faced the streetOur room even had a small balcony, while no chairs to sit on, it was nice in May to open, turn off the A/C and let the fresh cool afternoon/evening air inThey did have free personal items downstairs if need at the front desk (Razors and such)The pool was clean and cold, not heated, but that didn’t bother usThe breakfast is the normal items you’d see at any motel nowadaysOverall al great place to stay

Customer service and safety! I felt very safe in this hotel compared to other hotels in Pasadena Also, the room was clean and spacious, and the amenities were excellent The bigger reason for my rating is the customer service

Everyone was very pleasant and helpful The staff at Charlie’s Bar including Randy, Ashley, Rosie, Carlos, Adam, and Raul were very, very, very accommodating and friendly The registration desk employees were so nice! I felt comfortable and they were all so pleasant Thank you!

Sherie Michele

The beds are very comfortable It was so easy to get in and out of this hotel Its practically in the Pasadena Civic Center and right across the street from the Paseo Shoppes and restaurants on Colorado Blvd

I was also pleased with staff member Brady Brady was extremely accommodating and he goes the extra mile to ensure top professional service We enjoyed the pool area although there is no jacuzzi 🙁 The pool is slight heated and towels are provided We will definitely return later for another stay

SuperNinjafox7

Stayed in this hotel about two weeks ago and it was a great hotel Its proximity to the Convention Center made it an ideal option, and the quality of the room was solid As an ex-maintenance worker, the room checked out well

Only complaint would be a subpar exhaust fan in the bathroom Moving on to service, Ivan was wonderful He was extremely patient and helpful with my aging father in answering questions and accommodating our needs Would definitely come back to this hotel if I’m in the area needing a place to stay

Kristina McClintock

The bathroom had a giant tub with jets which was awesome The junior suite had 2 nice, comfortable, and clean beds The furniture (table, chair, and couch) were really clean and nice

The issues I had was the musty smell that killed my allergies It was almost like a moldy smell, but I didn’t see the mold We probably would have asked for another room except it was night and we were only sleeping there, so it didn’t matter that much Also, opening the window helped a lot 🙂

Robert Fan

Very typical Embassy Suites experience, albeit the room I had during my stay could have been better maintained One of the towel hooks was loose and the bathtub drain could neither be stopped so as to fill the tub nor easily kept fully open so that water wouldn’t pool while taking a showerAlso the breakfast lacked an omelette bar, which was mildly disappointing

The free drinks during the “happy hour” were limited to two from a very small selection The only beer was bud lightOtherwise, service was great and the hotel is conveniently located near restaurants and shops and easy to access for transportation

Benicio Navaira

The rooms are spacious, big beds There is a small safe, and refrigerator The rooms have a better build, you don’t hear other people in the next room as loudly

As other hotels The staff was very friendly, and helpful they knew when to talk to you And when you don’t expect to be bothered It’s a good location close to stores and places to restaurants It’s also well guarded, people that have no business being here, stay off the property If you’re worried about safety, it’s very safe

Rick Sch

Hotel was nice, and clean AC really struggled to keep room cool, didn’t seem to be pushing much air And not sure why they only have 3 luggage cards in such a large hotel as almost everyone was commenting on why this was an issue for the outing guests

Other than that food Good Pool good, would come back if those 2 areas improve as wasn’t bad otherwise

This hotel has everything, a pool, outdoor seating with games and a gas fire pit The room are clean and very accommodating for all Pet friendly

Water pressure in our room was intense Breakfast buffet included eggs, sausage, fruit parfait, cereals, Oatmeal and juices Parking is $24 a night We had to park in overflow parking at the mall next door We were given a parking pass to avoid the mall charge too The area is very walkable and enjoyable

Phinehas Johnson

Getting from our room to the garage was almost impossible It drove me insane trying to get on the right elevator and then having to ride it all the way up and all the way back downThe room kept losing electricity at night causing our sound machine from turning off

Plus the room smelt pretty odd after flushing the toiletLuckily only stayed one night or would have asked for a new room No clear fix for the elevator situation

Nicole Hok

I highly recommend this hotel It’s new, it’s modern and roomy Best of all: really nice and heartwarming customer service

Angelo made our 15 yr anniversary stay very special 🙂 and comfortable It’s a convenient location away from the busy LA area with a beautiful view of the mountains in the Pasadena area! Breakfast: very nice variety with fresh berries! Next time we visit LA/Disneyland, we’ll definitely book here again and recommend family & friends to here Loved it here! THANKS ANGELO!!

This place is freaking NICE I stayed here on New Years Eve and there was a DJ in the lobby The music was fun and the atmosphere was fun

They only have valet parking so you’re going to have to tip the valet but you don’t have to pay for parking so that’s nice This is by far the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed at The room was spotless and really nice inside

Chandra Watkins

What a beautiful hotel I got a great price on the room (maybe because they haven’t been open for very long) The racetrack is directly across the street, but I drove there because the walk was too far for me because you have to walk across the parking lot

Hotel is close to everything! We had a great time and will return to try out the restaurant on-site The room was spacious and the mountain views were spectacular I want to try the city view side next time Highly recommend this location!

Wesley

Very nice, new hotel with a wonderful view of the mountains and the race track Service was top notch and the food was exquisite You gotta try the kale pasta

They also comped the $27 valet charge because I spent money on dinner and they gave me a $36 credit on breakfast because I’m lifetime Titanium elite! A must stop in Arcadia during racing season! I’ll be back
