LAX – Best Places To Stay

Staying close to LAX is convenient for a layover or one night stay in Los Angeles but it’s certainly not one of my favorite areas to stay in L.A..

Many of the hotels on West Century Blvd (directly east from LAX) are walking distance from the airport (though they all offer shuttle service). The hotels in El Segundo (south of interstate 105) are a little farther, slightly quieter, but definitely not walking distance. This area has more restaurants and shopping, and feels more like a real neighborhood.

Hotels in LAX: There are no hotels located in the LAX terminals. The closest hotel to LAX is the Hyatt Regency.

LAX Hotels with Free Shuttle: Hyatt Regency, H Hotel, AC Hotel by Marriott, Cambria Hotel LAX, Renaissance Los Angeles Airport, Westin Los Angeles Airport, DoubleTree by Hilton, Hampton Inn & Suites LAX El Segundo, Sonesta LAX.

All hotel shuttles pick up and drop off on the Departures level.
