El Monte Castle Hotels

"Friendly"

"This is just the place you need if you are going to Disney. The one bedroom was spacious, the breakfast was great and the walk to the parks was less than 15 minutes. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay again! ."

"My wife, my sister-n-law, my son and I stayed here the night before the 2026 Los Angeles Marathon. We picked this location because it was close to the marathon starting line and offered a shuttle from the hotel to the starting line for runners since there was no way to walk to Dodger Stadium. This hotel turned out to be perfect for the marathon. We stayed in room 1652 and even though we were a little early for our check-in our room was cleaned and ready for our arrival. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and made the check-in very smooth. There is FREE WiFi if you need it. The bed was super comfortable and the room was very spacious. No need to bring dongles because there were plenty of USB ports to plug our devices into. Parking was valet only for $59 a night or your could park in the garage next to the hotel for $8.99 per night. This hotel was very clean and has been unkept very well, but if you explored around at all you could see that back in the glory days this was the place. There were several spots for business, restaurants, that were just sitting empty. A sign of the changing times. If you are participating in the Los Angeles Marathon and do not want to deal with traffic and parking. I would stay here. My rating: BEST"

"Check in was wonderful. Rooms need updated. Close to Disneyland!"

"Really the only thing they’re missing is a microwave in the rooms"

"Location location location - great for sightseeing and all activities. The hotel itself is in need of renovation. The carpets were sticky and the wallpaper in the bathroom was peeling. We had a city view from which we could see the Hollywood sign - the sunrises were beautiful. We were too busy to use any of the amenities."

"Amazing location to experience the night life around K-town, lots to do even within the hotel."

"Clean, friendly staff, close to Disneyland and plenty of food and shopping around."

"Wonderful hotel experience! There is a cute little duck family that lives on the property. Delicious food and drinks. Accommodating! the arcade game room was 2 bucks a game which was too expensive in my opinion. But overall excellent overall stay! "
