Hey, Insiders! I recently stayed at the Lexen Hotel North Hollywood, which is an 8-minute drive to Universal Studios Hollywood! This is an affordable hotel option for those wanting to stay close to the theme park, and you are able to drive or Uber easily. I recently stayed here for the first time last weekend as a place to crash after Halloween Horror Nights. The hotel was very clean, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the room was definitely vibes! Let’s dive into a Rapid Resort Review for you & share a few photos of my room!

Hotel Name: Lexen Hotel North Hollywood
Overview: This is a quaint and quiet hotel within close driving distance of the park.
Hotel Type: Moderate
Room Type: Preferred Two Queen Beds
One building or Multiple: One
Dining: There is no dining at the hotel, but there are restaurants within walking distance.
Transportation Options + Parking: Drive or Rideshare. Parking is $10 per night, per vehicle.

TKI Takeaways:
- This is a quiet hotel that is a more affordable option than the ones that are within walking distance of the park. This is the perfect option for those on a budget.
- Since there is not a pool at this hotel, it’s a great option for families and friends who don’t plan on spending a lot of time at the hotel and will be spending most of their time at Universal Studios or touring around Los Angeles!
- The hotel is 45 minutes from LAX.
