Hotels in Culver City Near the Studios and Downtown
Two areas hold most Culver City hotels. The downtown core around Culver Boulevard and Washington Boulevard puts you near the studios, galleries, and restaurants. The Fox Hills area to the south holds larger hotels near a shopping center. Pick the area first, then pick the hotel.
The Culver Hotel
The Culver Hotel stands at 9400 Culver Boulevard, Culver City, CA 90232. Harry Culver, the city founder, opened the building on September 4, 1924. Wikipedia describes the six-story flatiron building as a Renaissance Revival landmark. Casts of classic films stayed here during production. The National Register of Historic Places listed the building in 1997.
Today the hotel has 46 guest rooms, a bar, and a restaurant. Listings show Lillie’s Bistro and Garden as the on-site restaurant. Booking sites list check-in from 3:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM. Amenities include free Wi-Fi, a fitness center, free bike rentals, and a terrace. Listings show paid self-parking. One listing says pets are not allowed and service animals are welcome.

The Shay Hotel
The Shay stands at 8801 Washington Boulevard, Culver City, CA 90232. Our older version of this guide called the hotel a Hyatt property. We could not confirm the brand in current listings, which show the name The Shay Hotel. Ask the hotel which brand banner applies if you want to use loyalty points.

What We Checked
We compared official hotel pages, Wyndham, Pali Society, and several booking sites. We kept a hotel only when two sources listed the same address. We left out all prices because rates change daily.
We dropped no old properties. All six hotels from the earlier version appear above, and we added Four Points. A Super 8 near Washington Boulevard appears in some directories under a Culver City Area label. Its listed address lies in the City of Los Angeles, so we left the Super 8 out.
We found no sign of a closure for any hotel above. Hotels still change owners and brands, so phone the front desk before you pay a deposit.
How to Choose a Culver City Hotel or Motel
Start with your plans. Studio fans, gallery visitors, and diners should book downtown. Concert and game visitors should book in Fox Hills. Budget travelers can compare the Ramada and the Travelodge.
Next, check parking. Several hotels charge for parking and some offer valet only. Ask what the hotel charges and whether the fee covers in-and-out access. Then check pet rules, since policies vary a lot between these hotels.
Last, check the dates. Games and concerts at nearby venues raise demand. Midweek stays are often easier to book. Use the Expedia link above to compare options for your dates.
Getting to Culver City
Listings put Los Angeles International Airport roughly five to nine miles from the hotels. Some hotels in Fox Hills list a drive of about eighteen minutes. The Culver City Station sits near The Shay. Confirm transit routes on the official Metro site before you travel.
