Across the street from this landmark hotel is the state of the art Kodak Theater, current home of the Academy Awards presentation ceremonies.

It is across the street from the Mann's Chinese Theatre and the Walk of Fame. The rooms, renovated to the original Spanish-Colonial style, are named after illustrious stars from the hotel's heyday.
