Top Studio City Hotel Reviews

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Studio City cost?
Budget hotel prices in Studio City vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $100 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
When is the most affordable time to visit Studio City?
The most affordable time to visit Studio City, California, is generally during the shoulder seasons—late autumn (October to November) and late winter/early spring (February to April). During these periods, you'll often find lower prices on accommodation and flights compared to the peak summer months.

Solo travellers looking for value will appreciate the milder weather, which is superb for exploring the neighbourhood's charming streets and the nearby Hollywood Hills without the intense summer heat or crowds. You can enjoy free activities like hiking trails in Fryman Canyon or a stroll along Ventura Boulevard, browsing the diverse shops and enjoying the local atmosphere.

Families might find these times particularly appealing due to the reduced demand at popular attractions, potentially leading to shorter queues and a more relaxed experience. Many of the local parks, such as Moorpark Park, are less crowded, offering ample space for children to play without the summer rush.
Is Studio City a budget-friendly destination?
While Studio City is generally considered more expensive than other areas of Los Angeles, travellers can absolutely experience its charm on a budget with some smart planning.

For accommodation, look for hotels or guesthouses a little further from the main Ventura Boulevard, or consider areas slightly outside Studio City proper that are still well-connected by public transport. Solo travellers might find more economical options in nearby neighbourhoods like North Hollywood, which has good links to the Metro system.

Couples can save on dining by exploring the diverse range of eateries along Ventura Boulevard, from casual cafes to food trucks, which offer delicious meals at more accessible prices than upscale restaurants. Many of Studio City's attractions are also free, such as strolling through the lively farmers' market on Sundays, enjoying the scenic walking paths along the Los Angeles River, or simply soaking in the vibrant setting of the neighbourhood.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Studio City with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Studio City. Unlock our lowest prices by joining One Key™, Expedia's travel rewards program. It's free and easy to sign up, and you can access member perks too. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Studio City?
You'll be pleased to discover that Studio City offers a delightful array of free activities, superb for budget-conscious solo travellers looking to explore without spending a fortune.

For a relaxing day out, solo travellers can wander through the expansive greenery of the Studio City Recreation Centre, where you can enjoy a leisurely stroll or simply unwind in the open spaces. It's a pleasant spot for some quiet contemplation or people-watching. Another wonderful option is to explore the charming streets and window-shop along Ventura Boulevard, soaking in the local atmosphere and perhaps discovering some interesting independent boutiques.

Nature enthusiasts will appreciate a visit to the North Weddington Park and Equestrian Centre. While horse riding incurs a cost, simply walking the trails and observing the horses offers a peaceful and free experience. The park provides a lovely escape into nature within the city.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Studio City as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Studio City for you.
