The hype
Travelers love the renovated rooms and reliable shuttle, but everyone hates the parking fees and expensive breakfast.
Sheraton Gateway Hotel Los Angeles Airport
$130-220/ nuit
Réservez si You have a long layover at LAX and want a pool, a serious gym, and a bed you can actually sleep in before your next flight.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Free 24/7 shuttle runs every 10-15 minutes
- Soundproof windows that actually block runway noise
- Heated outdoor pool with cabanas (rare for an airport hotel)
En bref : A highly functional logistics hub that does the job perfectly, provided you don't mind paying $75 for valet parking.
Évalué par @tyetakeflight: I checked into the Sheraton Gateway for a quick layover and was honestly impressed. The lobby is stunning and the room was dead silent despite the planes outside. It’s the perfect spot to recharge before a flight without worrying about LA traffic.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
Reality check
You won't hear the planes, but you might hear your neighbors in the hallway—soundproofing is great for outside, mediocre for inside.
- You are an 'AvGeek' who wants to watch planes land from your room
- You need a reliable, frequent shuttle to LAX terminals
- You want a full resort-style pool and gym during a layover
