Bottom Line

The Dixie Hollywood is a pet-friendly, 70-room mid-range hotel on busy Hollywood Boulevard with restaurants, a grocery store, and the metro within walking distance. Top attractions like Universal Studios Hollywood, are also less than a 10-minute drive away. Rooms are modern with wood floors, recessed lighting, and hand-painted Hollywood-themed murals as well as microwaves, mini-fridges, and coffeemakers. Guests complain of wear and tear marks on the furniture, however, along with loud exterior noise and lack of desk space. The lovely, seasonal outdoor pool has ample seating and lots of greenery. Free Wi-Fi and parking are available as well.

Oyster Hotel Review

The Dixie Hollywood

Scene

A small hotel that feels larger than it is with a classic Hollywood vibe 

Even though The Dixie Hollywood is a small property, it feels big with open-air hallways and an open-concept design. A classic Hollywood feel flows through the updated lobby, which has colorful accents, wood and tile floors, and pictures of classic movie stars. Free newspapers are also available and big windows help the space stay well lit. The property has a quiet, happy atmosphere, with hand-painted murals on exterior doors and walls. This hotel used to have an on-site restaurant, 54Twenty, but it permanently closed in 2015.

Location

On Hollywood Boulevard, where many attractions are less than a 10-minute drive away

The Dixie Hollywood is on bustling Hollywood Boulevard, with Ralph’s grocery store across the street. The metro, restaurants, shops, and Barnsdall Art Park are less than a 15-minute walk from the hotel while the Hollywood Bowl, Universal Studios Hollywood, TCL Chinese Theatre, and the Hollywood Walk of Fame are less than a 10-minute drive away. The Hollywood Sign and Griffith Observatory are also about 10 minutes away by car. Bob Hope Airport is a 20- to 25-minute drive northwest while Los Angeles International Airport is about a 35-minute drive southwest.

Rooms

Stylish units include microwaves, coffeemakers, mini-fridges, and gorgeous murals

Air-conditioned contemporary rooms feature red bed runners, wood floors, and recessed lighting as well as turquoise armchairs for extra seating. Alpaca headboards and crown molding also decorate the space, and beautiful hand-painted Hollywood-themed murals are presented in all rooms. Flat-screen TVs are mounted to walls while mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers are housed inside dark wood furnishings. Guests mention that some furniture has wear and tear marks and that desks -- which are really small floating shelves – are hard to use. Additionally, some rooms get loud exterior noise. Modern gray tile bathrooms include shower/tub combos, updated vanities, and sufficient lighting. Natural Mist toiletries and hairdryers are provided.

Features

Seasonal outdoor pool plus free Wi-Fi, parking, and pet-friendly policy

The seasonal outdoor pool is a highlight for most guests and is surrounded by plenty of lounge seating as well as three shaded cabanas added after our visit. Potted plants and greenery cover the area with a drink machine in the corner. Concierge services and car rentals are offered on-site in addition to laundry facilities, and there’s free parking and Wi-Fi. (Guests have complained however that the Wi-Fi signal is weak with slow speed.) This hotel is pet-friendly, but visitors should inquire beforehand about policies as only two dogs or cats under 25 pounds are allowed per room.Additionally, room service has limited hours and items, and there’s no on-site fitness center or restaurant.
