RESIDENCE INN BY MARRIOTT LOS ANGELES LAX/CENTURY BOULEVARD, Los Angeles

The hotel sits on Century Boulevard, a main airport-adjacent thoroughfare, making it a 5-minute drive to all LAX terminals via the free hotel shuttle that runs from the upper (Departures) level every 10-20 minutes (24 hours). For SoFi Stadium or the Kia Forum, you will need a taxi, Uber, or Lyft as the hotel offers only a third-party paid option. The surrounding area has several car rental offices within walking distance. On-site parking is available in a garage behind the hotel for $54/night (height limit 6'6"). For longer trips, picking up a rental car the next day can save a night's parking fee. The hotel is a practical base for a one-night layover or a longer family trip if you have a car, with convenient access to the 405 and 105 freeways.

Breakfast is served as a complimentary American buffet with hot items (e.g., scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, oatmeal), cereal, breads, pastries, yogurt, fruit, juices, coffee, and iced coffee. It is a hot buffet, not a grab-and-go bag, though it is served with disposable plates and cutlery. The breakfast area is staffed, and items are regularly replenished. For other meals, there is a Starbucks in the lobby (open 5:00-17:00), Jersey Mike's Subs, and an artisan pizza/wings restaurant accessible from the lobby, open until late. A small on-site minimarket sells snacks and essentials. The hotel also offers grocery delivery services.

The heated outdoor pool is surrounded by a fence and has sun loungers and beach chairs. The pool area also features an outdoor fireplace and patio furniture. Towels are provided. The fitness centre is open 24 hours a day. Both facilities can feel less clean than the rest of the hotel, so you may want to use them with that in mind. The hotel also has a sun terrace with BBQ facilities.

Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. The front desk is open 24 hours and offers concierge services and an ATM on site. Luggage storage is free. Coin-operated laundry facilities are available. The hotel has a business centre, and fax/photocopying as well as meeting/banquet facilities are available for an additional charge. A minimarket is on site. The hotel is non-smoking throughout, with a designated smoking area. Safety features include fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, key card access, and safety deposit boxes. Electric vehicle charging stations are available in the parking garage. The shuttle service (free) operates 24/7, running every 10-20 minutes to LAX. The hotel also offers a room service option.
