We are coming from Australia, and want to stay somewhere safe, that is easyf or us to get to disney land, dodgers stadium, universal studio, warner brothers all the tourist stuff, where is easy to get to and from, if we stay on newport or laguna beach would tour buses even com down that way to take us places or do e need to get to hollywood? i read it isn t safe to stay in hollywood?
Since LA is so spread out, there is no single place that is close to EVERYTHING. Most people who come here tend to stay in Hollywood, Santa Monica, or Anaheim. In Hollywood, I recommend the Orchid Suites, Hollywood Celebrity Hotel, or Holiday Inn Walk of Fame, all near Hollywood and Highland. Another one is the Best Western Sunset Plaza. In Santa Monica, the Holiday Inn Santa Monica is close to the pier and reasonably priced. In Anaheim, I recommend the Howard Johnson (HoJo) Anaheim, and the Candy Cane Inn. There is also a nice place in Burbank called the Best Western Media Center, very close to Warner, NBC, and Universal Studios.The tour busses will NOT go to Newport or Laguna. You d have to rent a car and drive on the right side of the road to drive the 50 miles (80 km) to Hollywood. Hollywood isn t as glitzy as people think. Nor is it as horrible as some people think. You ll meet your share of characters to be sure, but it s not bad in the area around Hollywood Highland. And that s where the tourist busses are based. From there, you can take the Red Line Subway to Universal or downtown LA.Have fun!
Many tour buses pick up from the hotels near the L.A. Airport. I once stayed near the airport and had Grayline Tours pick me up. The Sheraton near L.A. Airport is the place I stayed. They have all the amenities you could want plus the tour pick up. I had no problems whatsoever on my trip to Los Angeles.
