Hollywood Boulevard is central to many tourist attractions, such as the Walk of Fame (stars on the sidewalk), the Chinese Theatre (handprints and footprints in the cement courtyard), Hollywood & Highland entertainment center and other popular attractions. Many of the guided tours depart directly from Hollywood Boulevard. This area spans along Hollywood Boulevard between La Brea Boulevard and Vine Street, with many attractions centered near Highland Avenue. The hotels nearest Hollywood and Highland are most convenient but can also be the most costly, although you can find an affordable room within a 5 to 10-minute walking distance.

The popular Tropicana Bar is a "see and be-seen" hot spot in Hollywood. Access to Tropicana Bar is guaranteed for guests who stay in a Cabana Room overlooking the pool (Tropicana Bar is closed on Sunday).
