Hi there I live in Hollywood and something you might like to know is that the big room that reminded you of the haunted castle was actually where the very first Academy award ceremony was held

[@CynthiaN.6005]

I'm sorry but for the rates you're paying, you need to get housekeeping managers involved and/or hotel managers to address some of these issues. Especially like not being able to get TV to work, no sugar/creamer, etc. Those are basic items! I hope you note the wear and overall uncleanliness on your online review.

This is such an insult to Marylin's legacy - old withered sofas and chairs, a plain looking bathroom. I would have expected something much more glamorous.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Have to agree

[@hatchling88]

Yet, could those be the original furnishings in Marilyn's suite? If so, I say, by all means keep them as so much else has changed. Leather can be refurbished. In general, what people think of as "Hollywood" is fake today and only maintained to trap tourists into coming around and spending money. I lived in LA many years ago and it was fake back then. Oh, well, the old dream is fun.

FYI, when Johnny Depp and Nic Cage were first starting in the biz, they were mostly broke and went to Pink's because back in the 80's the hotdogs were around 25 cents. That was all they could afford back then.

Yes! I’ve only ever briefly been in the front lobby back in maybe 2011. I love the Mid Century Modern “updates” from the time combined with some of the modern contemporary touches all not interfering with the original original 1927 grandeur from the likes of the front entrance. Being in the heart of Hollywood Blvd, it makes sense why all the special rooms have locked doors. Which really is unfortunate. Though, I don’t know if anyone can just enter the front doors like we used to be able to? I’m blessed to get Pink’s when the Orange County Fair comes around. That way I don’t have to go to L.A. every time I want not just any hot dog…but an iconic hot dog. Pink’s really is The Most!

[@justlori312]

[@oldjake4233]

All these "haunted" rumours were probably started by the owner of the hotel to keep the punters coming. I'm surprised they didn't send a Marilyn Monroe lookalike dressed in white and smelling of Chanel No5 (Marilyn's favourite) in your room while you were sleeping then suddenly shooting out of the door. 11:30 I can't think of a more powerful endorsement for that place than Scobby Doo. I honestly would love to stay at that hotel, and the Marilyn suite in particular.

I worked for a catering company ( Patinas) that used The Roosevelt for a lot of large events like weddings, corporate events and parties and such. This was around 2001, 2002 and I remember the hotel was either under renovation or just closed for extensive repairs. It was in the main hall / the old part of the hotel. There was a large restroom with a row of about 15 sinks. The event was at night and it was late. A friend and I were working there for that event. He went to use the restroom and when he entered, all of the faucets started running. These are the old sinks with the two faucets. They were all running full speed when he entered. He ran out and told us. I came up and they were all running. We just left. It was indeed a creepy building to work in, especially late at night when the events would take place. You could just feel the weirdness all around the old part of the building. I don’t remember seeing the new parts. Mind you, this is over 24 years old. Most of the hotels I worked in around the Los Angeles area were just as old and just as creepy. I can’t prove it was haunted. I never took a job at that venue again. You have to go to Tommy’s Burgers and not Pinks for goodness sakes! You are a burger man and your life won’t be the same after you have had one bacon cheeseburger at Tommy’s. There is one on Sunset Blvd.

[@oldjake4233]

@@charlaperry6291 I personally wouldn't be put of by a supposedly haunted hotel, I might see it as a challenge. I neither believe or disbelieve in ghosts. As for hot dogs, in my 12 trips to the US I've only eaten it twice, once in New York, and the other in Dallas. Tommy's Burgers? Aren't they a chain.

[@starnet1340]

Funny to say, but it seems like they try to keep the Marilyn Monroe suite authentic. Which would mean that it's up to the specs and luxury of the 50's. Which would also mean that it's kept in the old times. So maybe other suites would be more luxurious than this one for a lower price. Booking this one, you will spend more, but you will get less than other luxury suites. Just for the nostalgia...
