Best Pasadena Hotels

"This is my second visit, I like it here, the location is good, the environment is quiet, and it is convenient to eat and shop."

"The room was better than expected, with a motel-like layout, a large yard and two-story rooms. The breakfast was excellent, and the service was perfect, especially the Chinese girl at the front desk, who helped me find earplugs and sent them to the room, for which I was particularly grateful."

"The room was very clean and well-planned. The nearby shopping mall and the city hall are within walking distance. The hotel breakfast was not very varied but basically everything was available. Paper cups were also provided for take-away coffee or tea. The only downside was that the shower faucet could not be hand-held. The hotel also charged the room fee twice, which was refunded immediately after communicating with Ctrip customer service. Overall, I was quite satisfied."

"The room is okay, the toilet is relatively large, the bathroom is very simple, blocked by a canvas curtain, there is a small amount of simple shampoo, skin care oil, towels, no slippers, toothbrush, the location is a bit off, the bed is okay Comfortable, with parking space, breakfast is very simple, bread, ham, sausage, coffee, cereal, and some fruit."

"Our experience with the Howard Johnson has been exceptional with such great quality service! The manager Tommy has been very great and supportive with accommodations pertaining to our family needs in selecting the best room, and receiving the best service. Housekeeping is great, efficient and very kind. Whenever you’re looking for a quality hotel that’s very reasonable in price, The Howard Johnson in Pasadena is it !"

"The hotel is a bit dated but still nice. The room I stayed was okay and there is enough space to move around. The sheets need a little update. The bathroom is nice and spacious."

"A historic hotel that provided ambience with a welcoming atmosphere. The hotels location provided plenty of options for food and necessities. The staff was very friendly, accommodating and provided exceptional service. We requested a room change which was promptly addressed and were very pleased with the new room. The 3rd floor pool area was very nice with plenty of loungers and clean towels. Although, a weekly noontime schedule to purchase beverages and food at the pool would have been welcomed. We would like to acknowledge exceptional and friendly service from Graciela F. and Adriana C. They made our stay very enjoyable! We will be returning in the future and would highly recommend the Pasadena Hotel!!"

"The hotel is in a relatively new location in pasadena. The urth coffee shop opposite the hotel is good. You can go there for breakfast. Valet parking is 50 knives a night, but there is a public parking lot next to it. It costs 25 knives a night. You can park by yourself. It is very convenient. The bar on the roof is very good, and you can have a drink downstairs at night. The room is small, but very new, more like a domestic hotel."

"Located in Old Town Pasadena, the hotel is within walking distance of various restaurants and shops, including popular brands like Arc'teryx and Lululemon. Be aware that clothing stores tend to close quite early. It's less than a 20-minute drive to Trader Joe's and Costco, and about half an hour to downtown Los Angeles, Universal Studios, the Natural History Museum, and the California Science Center. There are homeless people in Old Town, but they generally keep to themselves, are not aggressive, and won't bother you. The hotel facilities are decent. They provide bath towels and soap, an ice bucket, a coffee maker, and a mini-fridge, but no electric kettle. Also, note that American mineral water bottle openings are different from those in China, so if you're bringing an instant portable hot water dispenser, be aware of this. Basic housekeeping is done daily, and bath towels are replaced every day. Parking is $35 a day; you get a code for in/out access, and the charge is added to your bill at checkout. If you plan to be out early and back late, nearby public parking lots are a very close and cheaper alternative at $12 a day. Service is typical American style: polite, but not particularly attentive. The billing process was a bit confusing, but there were no actual errors in the charges. Ctrip's follow-up service, however, deserves praise. Finally, a correction regarding Ctrip's information: children aged 12 and above are charged full price for breakfast, which is $20 per person. The breakfast quality is actually quite good, offering excellent value for money, especially for California. Oatmeal is also available. P.S. Definitely avoid buying water from the front desk – it's outrageously expensive at $4 a bottle. You can get it much cheaper at the gas station next door, or drive 10-15 minutes to Costco to grab a case."

"A very satisfying stay. The hotel is located in a quiet residential area in Pasadena, very close to the Huntington Library. The entire hotel is great in every way except that it is a little old. The front desk staff is also very enthusiastic. If you come to LA without considering the distance, it is highly recommended"
