Hollywood, California Travel Information
Surfing California Beaches

California hotels are plentiful, and offer a wide range of options from budget and cheap in the Super, Econo, Value and Budget properties to mid-range Best Western, Hilton, Hyatt and Marriott, plus upscale resort accommodations in brands such as Ritz Carlton and Four Seasons. Spa treatments, golfing, mountains, beaches and desert resorts and casinos all make California a preferred choice by international travelers and American tourists eager to see what this West Coast destination has to offer.

If you're doing your research and booking a hotel, it's important to know that in California we're heading into the summer tourist season. That is the peak time for travel and vacations, so you may find less availability at the most popular beach resorts and destinations on weekends (Friday and Saturday night) and during holiday events or special events. While the beaches experience peak traffic in July and August, the desert resorts are so hot that tourists may find values there as temperatures are over 100 degrees each day. At the beach the weather is mild, normally ranging in the 70s during the summer, and the mountains offer similar summer temperatures, as well.

There are still some values to be found in California beach hotels if you shop around for the hidden spots. Don't hesitate to comparison shop or even consider staying slightly inland from the beach a few miles or kilometers. By doing so you usually can save a few dollars on your hotel bill. California welcomes you to its summer of fun, and reserving your hotel room is the first step in making your dream come true.
