Century City is a compact grid of corporate towers, the Westfield Century City mall, and the Avenue of the Stars office complex, one of the more self-contained business districts on the west side of Los Angeles.
Of the four hotels on this list, all but The Peninsula Beverly Hills are inside the district, from mid-range rooms to a five-star. The Peninsula is just across Santa Monica Boulevard in Beverly Hills. Selection prioritized verified location within Century City, star rating, and guest review scores.
How we selected these hotels
Location decided which hotels made the list, and star rating decided where they appear.
- 1. A Century City address, or one on the boundary streets that define the district: Olympic Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, and the Avenue of the Stars corridor.
- 2. Star rating, with higher-rated properties listed first.
- 3. Guest review score, used to settle the order within the same star tier.
Hotels in Westwood or Brentwood were left off, and so were hotels in Beverly Hills, with one exception. We can only book three hotels inside the district, so the fourth pick is the closest one over the line, The Peninsula Beverly Hills, a 14-minute walk from Westfield. The list covers mid-range and upscale hotels, so there's a verified option at more than one budget.
