Top Western Malibu Hotel Reviews

Palm Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Pool and garden area were great. Good value, clean and good location."

Hilton Woodland Hills / Los Angeles

10/10 Excellent

"The bed was very comfortable, and the room (715) was very quiet. I got a really good night's sleep. One minor item needs attention. The shower sprayer retaining handle was broken, such that the shower sprayer would not remain in the high position. It's a fairly minor fix."
