Nice hotel although the neighborhood is not exactly upscale. Rooms are comfortable but on the small side. Evening activities create some noise issues.

A great small hotel, very trendy feel about it. Staff were brilliant all round with special mention for Brian on the front of house team - he always seems to be in the “right place, right time” when we needed assistance. Area feels run down and a bit seedy, but that’s Hollywood I guess!

Great stay. Staff is very kind and helpful. The hotel is close to The Greek theater. Which was perfect for us to get a Lyft to and from the concert. Would stay here again if we are in the area.

This place is a hidden gem, an oasis in East Hollywood. It is one of the nicest hotels, we've stayed at. Lovely, caring staff, immaculate rooms, beautiful aesthetics. You walk in from the busier street and feel transported to a villa. Thank you~

The team at CARA are attentive, professional, and personable. We had a remarkable experience from the time we entered the property until the moment we drove away. The restaurant is excellent and the property is stylish and calming. We are so looking forward to returning.

Cara hotel Aug 24
Interesting drive up and entry was a little hard to find from the street. Very close to Greek theatre and Griffith Park. Beautiful, boutique style hotel. Excellent and comfortable room, just a little small, but convenient, right next to pool and outdoor dining area. Excellent restaurant and bar. Minor complaints: bartender wasn’t really friendly at all (but the bar back Noland was great), and music was a bit too loud. Corkage fee at restaurant was exorbitant ($60), double to triple what I’ve paid at other nice restaurants.
