The Deal
Headed to Los Angeles this month and looking for an affordable place to stay? Look no further. We’ve done some serious bargain-hunting to bring you the very best of hotel deals in the star-studded city. Our findings reveal some fabulous offers in West Hollywood and downtown L.A., whatever your budget may be. Rates start at just $87 for an overnight at an elegant three-star.

Discover West Hollywood’s freshest boutique treasure for $219/nt
For a dose of intimate boutique chic a two-block walk from the Sunset Strip and Santa Monica action, stay at the recently spruced-up Chamberlain West Hollywood Hotel. This sparkling addition to L.A.’s swanky hotel scene just debuted late last year, with a fresh new design and heaps of extra perks. Since, the stylish residential pied-a-terre has shot up in the top tier of luxe properties. Concierge writes, “The cool modern style evokes a time when people used cocktail shakers and smoked filterless cigarettes.” Lounge by the rooftop pool and admire the striking city vistas below; hang out on the private balcony off your capacious guestroom, each complete with a separate living area and a gas fireplace; or sample modern California cuisine at the Bistro & Lounge. Courtesy of Hotels.com, now you can do all of the above for only $219/night! Translated, it means you save over 30% off regular rates.

Funky three-star overnight on Santa Monica Blvd. for $129/night
As for midrange properties in West Hollywood, you’d be strapped to find a hotel that charges less than $160/night. But we found it! For only $129, you can get an overnight at the jazzy Ramada Plaza Hotel & Suites, right on Santa Monica Boulevard. But that’s only if you book through Expedia, which offers this stellar deal valid for stays through August 2. This contemporary-style property is not a fancy spot – and you wouldn’t expect that of a Ramada chain, would you? – but it’s a real find in its three-star category. It has a string of funky guestrooms with Art Deco flair and posters of Hollywood celebrities; “plenty of character”, as Fodor’s claims; and even a rooftop pool. And all of that now costs just $129/night, marked down from the hotel’s standard rate of $160.

Stay at three-star New Otani Hotel & Garden for just $87/night
If you’re looking for a cheap L.A. stay, look no further. We found an absolute bargain, now available on Orbitz, for stays through August. Book a night at the three-star New Otani Hotel & Garden, located right downtown, for just $87! At this budget price, you’re getting a lot more than you’d think. Gayot.com writes, “this large and elegant high-rise hotel offers the choice of Japanese or Western-style suites, both designed with a starkly elegant Japanese aesthetic. Décor throughout the hotel is uncluttered and understated, a purely Eastern way of designing.” Other perks include a delightful Japanese garden; a full-service spa; and five eating spots on the premises.
