Hotel in Hollywood or West Hollywood for vacation?

I'm debating between staying at the Ramada in West Hollywood or the Ramada in Hollywood. The price/night in West Hollywood is around 2x the cost. Is this worth it? My plans for the trip are visiting the beach, going to bars/clubs, eating at nice restaurants, and so on. I will be renting a car, but at night, it would be nice to be able walk, take public transportation, or an affordable cab ride to/from the drinkin establishments.Hotel in Hollywood or West Hollywood for vacation?
Stay in Hollywood, not West Hollywood. West Hollywood has a wide variety of homosexual clubs to pick from, whereas Hollywood has a variety of clubs. So if you are homosexual then West Hollywood is a good place for you. .Hotel in Hollywood or West Hollywood for vacation?
I'm familiar with that Ramada in Hollywood. I don't know if the Ramada in WeHo is worth paying twice as much, but the one in Hollywood should definitely be avoided. Sometimes going cheap can ruin your whole vacation.





If you want to go to WeHo, I usually recommend the Best Western Sunset Plaza, which is a nice place in a nice location. You're on the Sunset Strip, which has plenty of clubs and restaurants. For Hollywood, I recommend the Renaissance (very nice hotel), Holiday Inn Walk of Fame (moderately priced), or the Hollywood Celebrity (budget). These 3 hotels are centrally located near Hollywood Blvd and Highland Ave, which is the heart of Hollywood. You also have immediate access to the Metro Red Line subway, which can take you downtown or the Universal Studios.





Have fun!
I would not stay at the Ramada in Hollywood. West Hollywood is a better area. It is indeed home to the gays, but there's A LOT of other stuff going on there, and it is SAFE SAFE SAFE. People pay a lot of money to live in West Hollywood. It is clean, safe and fun.
Sounds like with your agenda a hotel that costs twice as much is a waste of time.





Spend that money on your vacation, not somewhere you're sleeping for a few hours.
The Renaissance Hotel will be your best choice. Located right next to the Hollywood %26amp; Highland mall so you can do some shopping and they have some great restaurants! And most of the clubs/bars are a block or two away.
If you want to stay in Hollywood look at the Hollywood Hills Hotel and/or The Magic Castle.
unless youre gay then dont stay in west hollywood its a prodominately gay area
