Best Hotels with Activities in Los Angeles

Los Angeles spreads its family hotels across Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and Hollywood, three neighborhoods with completely different rhythms for a trip with kids. Santa Monica keeps the pier and the beach within stroller distance of most hotel doors, while Beverly Hills concentrates the pool decks and kids clubs that fill a rainy afternoon. Parents renting a car get the fastest routes between the Griffith Observatory and the aquarium in Long Beach; parents relying on rideshare do better anchored near the Metro E Line in Santa Monica.
