Luskin Hotel

The Luskin Conference Center and Hotel is an exceptional place to stay when in Los Angeles. The staff bends over backwards to be helpful and they all provide exceptional and very cheery service. The Luskin is also tip free which is quite astonishing and appreciated. Its location is right on the middle of the UCLA campus and is convenient to everything on the west side of L.A. the hotel is spotless and quiet and the food at Plateia, the restaurant, is as outstanding as it is unique. We were dining with a friend who is 101+ and rather hard of hearing. Graham, the restaurant manager, spontaneously moved us into a private dining room so conversations would be easier to hear without the hub BTB and noise of a busy dining room. The courtyard, right outside the lobby and adjacent to the dining room, is fabulous and a great place to eat in nice weather.

Excellent location and rooms are very well appointed. It’s our favorite place to stay when visiting our daughter at UCLA. And the food at Plateia is very good

Actually, we would like to thank the staff and manager who helped us on a previous reservation on March 1st. We had to cancel last minute because my father suddenly became very sick and passed away. The manger messaged us to express sympathy and refunded our reservation cost. Obviously, we had no problem deciding where to stay this time. Luskin's location was excellent and location inside UCLA. I was also an easy walk out of campus to Westwood. They were able to accommodate us for early check-in. The staff was very professional and extremely helpful. The room was clean, bed was comfortable and great free WIFI was available throughout the hotel. We had a great breakfast in their restaurant. We will be back.

We did not get downstairs in time for breakfast, so I cannot comment on the restaurant. The hotel itself is beautifully located on campus, which enabled us to walk to our evening event at Royce Hall. Check-in was a breeze and the room was very clean and comfortable. A significant contributor to our stay was the outstanding service provided by staff member Joseph who greeted us when we drove up and escorted my wife and luggage up to the room while I parked the car downstairs. Later Joseph provided us a campus map so we could find Royce Hall. He was on duty again the following morning to direct us to a nearby cafe and then, following check-out, with getting our luggage down to the car and sending us off. All this without a tip because the staff members belong to a union, so no tipping is allowed. We were sorry to leave this hotel!

Beautiful center. The setting, decor, facilities and amenities were all top-notch. The bed was quite comfortable and I slept well. I had a meal at the restaurant that was outstanding, as was the room service meal that I also enjoyed. The bathroom was lovely and had a very good collection of quality guest toiletries. I was attending a graduation on campus at UCLA and was easily able to walk to the location from the hotel. It was quite pricey but I felt that the quality of the experience was worth the price.
