City Guide
The Best Inn welcomes its guests to the Entertainment Capital of the World.
Entertainment...
There's never a lack of things to do in Hollywood, and the Best Inn Hollywood is nearby several of Hollywood's attractions. Beginning at the Kodak Theatre, home of the Academy Awards, only half mile away, travel a few blocks to the east and you're at the famed corner of Hollywood and Vine. Entertainment venues such as the Pantages Theatre, the Hollywood Palladium and the Hollywood Bowl are a short mile away in either direction.
Studios...
If you plan on attending live studio tapings, Paramount is just 2 miles to the south, while the fun of Universal Studios Theme Park is a short 3 1/2 miles away - a trip made even easier by taking the Metro Red Line. The station is a short 1/2 mile jaunt near the Kodak Theatre at the corner of Hollywood and Vine.
Shows...
You can combine a little of traditional Hollywood with culture and history by heading down Highland Avenue to Beverly Blvd. Make a right and 1 mile to your left will be CBS Television City, site of famed TV variety shows of bygone days and present home to several CBS soaps. You can still obtain free tickets to several shows still in production at the studio, from the long-running "The Price is Right" to the "Late Late Show."
Shopping
& Museums...
Next to the Television City complex is The Grove, a great place to spend an afternoon of shopping, dining or catching a movie. Travel south down Fairfax Avenue to 3rd street and find the historic Farmers Market, still a fun place to hang out after 70 years in the same location. Continue further south down Fairfax to Wilshire Blvd, where you'll come to the Los Angeles Museum of Art (LACMA) and the world famous LA Tar Pits.
