L’Ermitage allows pets up to 40 lbs for $50 one-time. The Garland also allows pets with charges. Properties like citizenM Downtown, Luskin Hotel, and Gateway Hotel Santa Monica do not allow pets. Always confirm pet policies and fees when booking.
Which LA hotels with gyms offer free cancellation?
Most properties in this list have cancellation policies that vary by room type. The Regent Santa Monica Beach and Vacation Apartments in Marina Del Rey ask you to check conditions with your specific dates. Shutters On The Beach has a 72-hour cancellation policy — cancellations past 4pm the day before arrival incur charges. The Maybourne Beverly Hills requires cancellation before 6pm local time. Always review the specific terms during checkout.
What’s the most walkable area for staying active in Los Angeles?
Santa Monica and Beverly Hills are the most walkable for combining hotel gyms with outdoor activity. Santa Monica hotels like Shutters On The Beach, Casa Del Mar, and Regent Santa Monica Beach put you steps from the beach boardwalk and Santa Monica Pier — perfect for outdoor runs. Beverly Hills properties like L’Ermitage, Beverly Wilshire, and The Maybourne are near palm-lined residential streets ideal for jogging, plus Rodeo Drive for post-workout walking.

Yes — many offer late check-in options. citizenM Downtown has a 24-hour front desk so you can check in anytime. The Maybourne Beverly Hills checks in from 3pm to midnight. L’Ermitage accepts check-in until midnight as well. Boutique KTown Stays has check-in until 11:30pm.

How do I get from LAX to my hotel in Los Angeles?
Most hotels are 12 miles from LAX — about 20-45 minutes by car depending on traffic. Uber and Lyft from the airport cost between $25-$45 as noted by one hotel. Many properties offer private parking or valet if you’re renting a car. The Gateway Hotel Santa Monica is a good bet for proximity to LAX via the 405. None of these hotels offer airport shuttles, so ride-share or rental car are your best options.
