I was compiling a rideshare/roomshare travel info website, but I really don't think I can finish it all now since I just got a ton of work to do. Here is my research for LA. Everything is based on being very short walking distance (ie, LA Walking Distance) from the venue. I don't know if you'll be renting a car or what, but if so, there are so many more options. Refer to this [URL=http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&q=category:+Motels+%26+Hotels&near=7021+Hollywood+Blvd,+Hollywood,+CA&ie=UTF8&ei=24kHRciyBrmesgHkwOCuAw&start=0&z=16&om=1]google map[/URL] for more info. I am assuming you need 4 nights stay, and will check in on Friday, and out on Tuesday.

Hollywood La Brea Motel
7110 Hollywood Blvd.
Hollywood, CA 90046
(323) 876-8000
Location: .2 mi. Down Hollywood Blvd at La Brea
(can't find any info, call and see if it still exists. rates should be around $70ish i think)

Hollywood Hills Hotel
Apt style hotel. Studio starts at $159/night. Close, but up a hill. Registration is at the nearby Magic Castle Hotel.

If you want to splurge: A few nice places in the 'hood are the Hollywood Roosevelt ($185/night) and the Magic Castle Hotel (suites) ($150/night at internethotels.com only. You can look them up on hotels.com or travelocity.com and see where you can get the best rates (that goes for all of these hotels). Usually, if you book airfare through travelocity you can get a discount on the hotel also, and if you book through expedia, you get hotels.com rates, but with an additional discount also sometimes.

There is a Motel 6 in Hollywood - I am not sure where the club is that Covenant is playing, but you might check into staying there... You ought to come to the SF date!!! That's where I'll be!!!

I was wondering why you were not considering driving to Seattle But I totally forgot about VNV the same weekend down in LA.

Orbitz is good for flights, but IME, they dont have many good hotel deals like travelocity and expedia (which is really just a hotels.com partner or something).

Hopefully, someone else can use the info if they are travelling to LA for the show.

my friends and I are doing the VNV in LA Covenant in SF weekend!!! Can't wait! 4 of my favorite bands (counting the openers for Covenant) in three days... it doesn't get much better than this!
