I haven't travelled in a long time.... and decided to splurge and stayed here for two nights in their Exclusive Patio Room with my senior dog, Bella (my other two went to the puppy hotel). I pre-paid the room, which saved me a bit of money. The hotel was able to accommodate my need for a small fridge and a microwave (for Bella's food). Everything at the hotel is lovely. Pasadena is a true gem. I loved walking in the Oak Knoll neighborhood and enjoying the wonderful gardens on the Langham property. Talking with many passersby. Taking deep breaths... finally feeling like I could and DID relax. I visited the Tap Room and the Terrace twice because we enjoyed our experience so much. Something that is unique to this hotel -- is the overwhelming friendly disposition of every staff member we encountered. From Nathan (the guy that works on the ponds and pools), to Max (at the Terrace), to Abby & Francis (at the Tap Room)... to the front staff (forgot his name) that helped me (even locating me in the Tap Room when they needed me)... Honestly, I think all of the staff truly likes this place, and THIS shows with how they treat their guests. No ask is too much and even though I didn't need anything crazy... just making it reasonable to travel with a senior dog that gets homemade meatballs, it was really a nice feeling. I would do anything for my pup, but this trip was really for me. I think Bella was sad to leave... and that's always a good sign; if you've stayed too long you're listless and lethargic (even), but we left still smiling and beaming from our experience. I needed it. And, I got exactly what I wanted. Thanks a million, to the Langham! My one suggestion/critique (albeit small) -- is they need to make the amenity fees more clear upon booking the room. I thought all of that was taken care of (and I was surprised by the daily charges). read more

I genuinely do not understand the hype around the The Langham Huntington, Pasadena. We've now given this hotel multiple chances over several years and every single experience has been disappointing. The first time was Valentine's Day shortly after I gave birth to our third child. My husband took me to The Terrace for a simple lunch because we live walking distance and thought it would be an easy, relaxing outing. Instead, we got terrible service and shockingly bad food for a supposedly luxury hotel. Completely forgettable experience. Then we tried the Teddy Bear Tea a few years later with our kids. Again, awful. The food and tea were both mediocre at best, and the setup felt chaotic and lazy compared to a proper afternoon tea service. Instead of the elegant presentation you'd expect, everyone was handed messy pre-plated trays dumped onto the table, and getting tea refills felt nearly impossible because staff were nowhere to be found. Last spring we decided to give the property another shot through a ResortPass cabana day. While the pool itself was peaceful, service was practically nonexistent. We spent more time trying to flag someone down for food and drinks than actually relaxing. For the prices they charge, pool service should not feel like a scavenger hunt. Most recently, I booked a one-night staycation to spend some one-on-one time with my oldest daughter. Same exact issues all over again. The pool was packed and there appeared to be ONE server working the entire area. The room itself felt extremely dated, and the bathroom fixtures were rusty and not particularly clean. My daughter actually told me the hotel "felt haunted," which honestly summed up the entire atmosphere perfectly. What's especially frustrating is how heavily they market themselves as family-friendly with all these supposed kid amenities and "special touches." They advertise things like a kids passport/scavenger hunt experience, so my husband specifically noted it in the reservation ahead of time and even called afterward to confirm. Despite all of that, nobody seemed to know what we were talking about and nothing was prepared. It perfectly captures the overall experience at this hotel: lots of luxury branding and promises, but completely disorganized execution once you actually arrive. At this point, it feels like this hotel survives entirely on its reputation and location, not on actual hospitality or quality. Beautiful grounds can only carry a property so far. For the price point, the service, food, upkeep, and overall experience are consistently unacceptable. read more

Beautiful spot for afternoon tea. Took my mom here for Mother's Day and she loved it! Everything was pretty good but my mom got the white peach tea and it didn't have much flavor - tasted like plain ol' hot water. Also when the server brought out the food, my mom was like is that all vegetarian and got confused. The server confirmed it was..obviously it wasn't because we were sharing so I clarified and the server responded like I was dumb for asking lol. Our main server Luisa (hope I got her name right) was absolutely great! She was so lovely and truly the best read more

I very much enjoyed my recent stay on 4/23/26. I booked my visit using my AMEX card and through its Fine Hotel & Resorts program to unlock my hotel credit and additional perks, which included a $100 hotel credit (applied to a spa treatment) and $86 breakfast credit. The property is gorgeous, the staff were focused on providing excellent service, and I had an amazing stay. I'm definitely planning on staying at the Langham again soon! read more

The Langham Huntington, Pasadena - Breakfast at The Terrace - Hotels Near Me - Pasadena, California

Afternoon tea at The Langham is such a dreamy experience. From the moment you're seated, everything feels elegant yet relaxed like stepping into a little pocket of calm away from the city. The tea selection is extensive and beautifully curated, and each pot is served to perfection. The tiered tray is just as impressive with delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, and the most beautiful assortment of pastries that almost look too pretty to eat (almost). Every bite feels thoughtful and well-balanced. What really makes it special is the atmosphere--soft lighting, classic décor, and attentive service that never feels rushed. It's the perfect place to slow down, catch up with friends, or celebrate something special. Definitely one of those experiences that feels both timeless and indulgent. read more

We found ourselves blown away during our recent weekend getaway here. It's worth every penny from the moment valet opens your door until you wave goodbye to the front desk/reception staff.

It was quiet and we slept like we were on a cloud. In a word -- it was perfection. read more

The Langham Huntington, Pasadena - From the patio of the Tap Room - Hotels Near Me - Pasadena, California

We want a short weekend get away to Pasadena. So my wife searched for "best hotel in Pasadena" and this place popped up. This place is near the Huntington Library, which is amazing. The drive up is quite impressive. The lobby was push, with a grand view of the sun filled garden. The long walkways with beautiful tiles and golden light fixtures just oozed luxury. The rooms are old school, compact but every corner has attention to details. The bathroom is white, clean, very spa like. We did not eat in the restaurant but the room service was delicious. The stay was a great experience. read more

This was my first time at this tea at The Langham and we had a wonderful experience. We were greeted first by the security person at the entrance who directed us to valet. The valet gentleman opened my door and even grabbed my crutches from the backseat. I was very appreciative. He directed us to the high tea room through the lobby and passed the courtyard. It was a beautifully designed and decorated. When we walked through the doors we were instantly greeted by a hostess who asked us for our preference in seating. She went to set the table for us and came back to direct us to the table. We were sat and our server, Louisa, came to introduce herself and review the menu with us instantly. Louisa left to give us a few minutes to go over the menu and make selections. She came back shortly and took our order for tea and our tea pot selections. We went with the Apple Pie and Sugar Plum Fairy teas. They were both delicious and so soft and velvety. She also brought two scones each for us to start with: the vanilla and the chocolate chip. We nibbled and enjoyed the ambiance. Every Sunday the venue has a harpist who is brilliant! Her contemporary music mixed in with soft melodic melodies was so wonderful. A gentleman brought our tea tower to the table and wasn't really interested in explaining what was on each level but thankfully Louisa reappeared right after he walked away and relayed what each thing was again and answered questions. I loved the table service. Louisa continued to touch the table at regular intervals to refill our teacups. We never had to refill our own cups. Once we were done she returned with branded boxes and the check. She even took a few pictures for us. There was only one downside. I understand influencers in the wild; however, the two young ladies who were sat at the window at a two top, (we were on the couch facing the window), were extremely rude and self involved. Sitting and enjoying something as intimate as afternoon high tea only to have people standing up in front of us, setting up tripods in the walkway, and continuously putting up selfie sticks to take photos...was just...sigh... I love going to tea and, yes, take photos, it would be nice if the venue would set a policy of respecting others and their dining and not allowing the use of tripods and selfie sticks while people dine. It was beyond annoying. Thank you, Langham, Louisa, and staff for a lovely afternoon! read more

I had a really wonderful time with friends. We were celebrating my friends birthday and it was my first time there. I'm not too fond of the expensive valet, but it is a beautiful hotel and I loved the live harp music and getting to explore the gardens after eating. I loved the selection of teas. I like that it changes every season. And the food was mostly good. I didn't love every sandwich but I was happy with some and the deserts especially the chocolate pistachio was scrumptious. read more

We attended a Langham Hotel group travel agent evening event which was held outside in the pool area surroundings. The event was very well organized with an open bar and plenty of hors d'oeuvres to go around including caviar. They had a BBQ area set up and the food was delicious in every way. The only draw back was the lack of more chairs around the large tables. read more

Was here for the weekend. I thought this place would blow me away just like Terranea but pales in comparison. First, it took over 15min to get my car from the valet during one instance. Their excuse was that they were looking for the blue ticket or white ticket or who knows what. Anyway, clearly they don't think or communicate because if you cannot find my car why don't you let me know? I am there waiting by myself standing like a fool. Also, we had called ahead to get bed rails for the room. They said over the phone it would be ready with the room. Nope. We called the concierge and they told us someone would come. 5 hours later - nothing. We called again and the lady that picked up said they did not have bed rails. Then out of nowhere, 2 workers come in and say they would get the bed rails. Super random, bad customer experience and definitely not in the same page. The good - the 8th floor lounge had decent selection of food and drinks and it changed daily. And the workers up there were incredible. I probably would not come back here. We used to come often for the afternoon tea service and the spa but I think this experience ruined my impression of the Langham. Peace! read more

Came to this hotel for a work event and had a great experience. The rooms are beautiful, super clean, and well appointed with nice amenities. The grounds are incredibly gorgeous, with great views and lots of walkable grassy areas. The property itself is very large, with multiple pools, spas, a gym, and even a tennis court with rackets available to rent and share. Sadly, we were there strictly for work, so we didn't get to take advantage of many of the extra activities. That said, the restaurants were very accommodating and tasty, and the staff throughout the hotel was super friendly and helpful. This feels like a beautiful place for a true relaxation vacation or even a local staycation. I would definitely love to come back with my family at some point and experience the hotel the right way. read more

Came here for a wedding and it was beautiful! The ceremony area was intimate and outdoors, with plenty of space for both small and larger parties. The cocktail area in the center was lovely, though there were quite a few bugs--definitely a good idea to bring bug spray if you're attending an evening event. The reception area was spacious and well set up, and the food was decent--pretty typical western-style dishes. Overall, it's a gorgeous venue for a wedding, though definitely on the pricier side. Parking: Valet only, around $25. read more

Wow what a gorgeous property. Came here for a meeting. Friend and I stayed for 5 nights. Meeting spaces are also lovely. I love old timey hotels. Catering staff, hotel staff, housekeeping staff, and valet staff were all wonderful. The food for the conference was also good. Better than most conference hotels in my opinion. Grateful they have tea and coffee stations throughout property. The outdoor terrace is beautiful. We did not partake in the pool or spa. Rooms are big and comfortable. It was a treat to stay here. Overnight parking is pricey but you have in and out privileges. You save on Ubers ;). Enjoy the downtown area while there! Maybe take a hike or 2. If you have $$$ enjoy the spa. read more

As viewers can see, I don't leave a lot of reviews, unless I'm extremely happy or extremely annoyed. This unfortunately is the latter, we ordered food from the poolside bar, 1. They literally brought out a single dish at a time, with a 10-15 minute wait for each item. The guacamole and salsa were literally 5 millimeters deep. The food was as bland as can be, zero seasoning or flavor, cold tasteless chicken wrap that literally took over an hour to bring, in a cold thick tortilla, it felt like eating plain tofu wrapped in a thick, cold tortilla. 4-5 small beets in the beet salad. The tuna tartar was good. And at the end of it, the bill was nearly half the room rate. read more

I've been here before a looooong time ago - for tea and maybe the spa(????), but it's been a minute and a weekend staycation theme of local gardens called for a visit to Langham Huntington. Non-optional Valet service greets you upon arrival and directs you where you'll be heading on foot. If it's into the hotel itself, first you'll amble through a beautiful central courtyard that should definitely set your tone for luxury and elevated care. Spring is always the best season for SoCal and the flowering trees and shrubs set the framework for the amazing centerpieces, bursting with Spring colors and fragrances, accenting the common areas indoor. Walk the gardens and discover some amazing plants. Enjoy some al fresco dining, or maybe just poolside drinks. Wander the halls and admire all the tucked away quiet spaces, art work, coffee table books highlighting cultures, mythology, travel and yes, more art. The Huntington has a massive history. The original building, outlying cottages, the Austrian inspired 1914 Picture Bridge and of course the surrounding gardens. If you prefer learning in a group setting, check out their website for docent led walking tours, offered at a nominal fee, covering topics such as Hollywood at the Huntington. This is a gem property! A lovely place to reground and reconnect to your "outlying" Angeleno self. Sometimes we locals feel like mere babes in this wide country with it's roots firmly imbedded in the East Coast. The Huntington is a great place to remind us that we DO have history in the domesticated West, and it's pretty darn beautiful poetic. Cheers! "CC" read more

Overall the property was nice. Most employees were friendly except for the females that work the front desk at the Chuan Spa. Very rude and unprofessional. Valet parking is all that is provided. No self parking. Everyone was professional with the exception of one female who seemed very unhappy with her job. Housekeeping is provided daily but did not clean very well. Still had soap around sink and hair in bathroom. It smelled like dogs in the room the last two days which I did not have a dog. Pool service was non-existent. It took 30 minutes to get a menu and the server never came back even though we were there for hours and during service time. This resort has potential but lacks cleanliness in the rooms and service at the pool. Tea time- we were seated for 30 minutes until someone came up to us. The server apologized for no one having come to us, but it did not make things right as we had plans to do other things that day. Service was very slow. Cakes and sandwiches were not fresh tasting at all. Tea was good. I would definitely not recommend teatime there. Overall it was a disappointing stay. read more

This bar/lounge is located inside the Langham Huntington Hotel hidden in a very hidden & exclusive residential area of Pasadena. Once you enter the lobby you'll want to veer left and head to the back of the main floor towards the pool. The lounge has plenty of cozy tables, sofas & outdoor seating where you can kick back and enjoy one of their signature cocktails, beer, wine or coffee along with some lite bites, snacks or desserts. My friend and I shared fries which were hot & crispy (5/5) and the charcuterie board (5/5), which was fabulous! For drinks I went with the Twilight Zone (a yummy prickly pear margarita), my friend ordered the Tropical Lightening which he seemed to like. We were there on a Thursday evening and they had a pianist who was great! I really liked this lounge! Our server was terrific! Very friendly making our experience even better. The view from the patio is beautiful. Next time I want to sit out there. (They were having a private event so it was closed off) *My only complaint was the parking. There are NO Parking alternatives here:( *The menu has Vegan & Gluten Free items. *Very Romantic *Casual dress allowed but this place is too classy. It's the perfect excuse to wear something nice! read more

My family and I dined at the Mother's Day brunch buffet held at the Viennese Ballroom by the Langham Pasadena Hotel. This hotel only hosts these buffets on holidays so you have to make a reservation either online or over the phone. The last time I went to their ballroom buffet was a decade ago for their Christmas brunch buffet. I have been to buffets at the Wynn, Caesars Palace, and Wicked Spoon in Las Vegas. But the Langham Pasadena is by far the most expensive and fanciest buffet I've ever been to. They also include a 20% service charge and you have to pay first. You also need to pay for valet parking which is $18 when you leave. The Viennese Ballroom is gorgeous. The buffet had a live jazz band comprised of a pianist, double bassist, and drummer. The breakfast section had an omelette station and a crepe station as well as bacon, sausage, and potatoes. You can choose Nutella, caramel, or berries at the crepe station. The hot foods section had lobster mac and cheese, stuffed chicken, and the mixed brussel sprouts. The carving station had prime rib and lamb. The prime rib was very tender. The caviar bar was popular. They grill tiny pancakes and top them with either black caviar or salmon roe over cream cheese. The seafood station had cooked, peeled shrimp and cooked crab pinchers. They also had salads and a charcuterie section. They dedicate one entire room to dessert. They set up a strawberry chocolate fountain and a regular chocolate fountain where you can dip strawberries, pineapples, marshmallows, and rice crispy treats squares. They had rows of pastries on display. I had never seen such an extravagant setting in my life. If you've never experienced a brunch buffet at the Langham, you have to try it at least once in your lifetime. Also wear your Sunday best. Take your time to explore the courtyard, the horseshoe garden, the Japanese garden, and the Picture Bridge when you're done. The buffet was so incredible. I would highly recommend it. read more

Minus 2 stars because their valet service took forever to get our car retrieved once we were finished with drinks from The Tap Room inside. They actually forgot about getting the car, lmao so dumb. The inside of the hotel does look nice but wasn't extremely upscale for a luxurious 5-star hotel. I didn't even know this hotel existed lol. And that it's a famous shooting location for films and TV series. Their restrooms are fancyish though with the warmed up, rolled up individual hand towels to use after washing your hands. read more

We visit the Huntington garden often (members), so we come to this resort for food and drinks before or after garden strolls. The thanksgiving event we attended was fantastic! The festive decorations at the ballroom were so much fun and they had a tv room for kids to watch cartoons. The buffet offerings were great, a bit of lacking on seafood but the rest was very delicious. The poke bar was great but I don't eat raw fish. Huhby loved the prime rib and omelette. I enjoyed salads and cheeses very much. The turkey was moist and flavorful enough. Dessert station was the highlight of course. The service was top notch and they kept the champagne flowing the entire time. I think the buffet was very reasonable for $175 PP with unlimited mimosas and Bloody Marys. The services at this resort never disappoint. The staffs are so friendly and helpful all the time. The ground is beautiful to walk around. Our favorite is the tap room lounge, we like to have drinks and hang out there so much! This resort has become our go-to place to hang out from time to time. It's just so relaxing and pleasant every time we come here! read more

My review is based off of the Hideaway restaurant and the valet. I have visited the Langham many times and hold its service at a high level mostly because that is my experience. It is guaranteed that the standard is at a high level which would match the cost. We decided to try the New Mexican Restaurant in anticipation of hosting a group of friends in June. We arrived shortly after 5pm when the restaurant opened. We were told to find a seat and to be patient as they were switching shifts from pool bar to dinner service. Ok. So we sat. There was only one bartender who continued to serve pool patrons walking up to the counter. There was one table that was served and the server was presumed to be some sort of manager as he was wearing a sport coat (not wait staff). We continued to wait with menus in front of us. Only one table was served and continued to get attention,. There were several others who got tired of waiting and just went up to the bar to order with the pool patrons in line. An hour goes by. We would have left but had already valeted the car and were in for the $18.00 validation, so we stayed. Finally a waiter came by to take our order and bring us waters (at our request). We ordered taquitos, Langostino empanadas, and a Paloma drink. It took a good 30 minutes before we were served. We had to ask for salsa twice. The drink was very weak and it was more expensive than the entrees. The taquitos were good. The Ensenada's were extremely bland and the weird part is, they were sitting up in a bowl of dried beans as decoration. It looked cool but are the beans reused or thrown out after each use? Seems silly to have beans in the bowl if you aren't going to eat them. We finished our meal, gave the valet ticket to the waiter and watched him try to give our valet ticket to another table. I know this is a new venture, but why open something without going through all the proper steps to achieve the Langham level? The waiter asked us if the food was good; that they needed feedback. The Langham is better than launching a restaurant without knowing what their food tastes like. It was almost as if no one was expecting the hotel to be packed, people at the pool wanting drinks, and food. They've been in the business long enough to know how to forecast. I hope it gets dialed in. Oh, and to add insult to the dinner, we waited over 30 minutes to get our car. We had to go back up to the window and ask if our car was still in the garage. It took the one manager to realize we had been waiting that long to have someone go get our car. He was extremely apologetic and offered us waters. At that point we just wanted to get home Two and a half hours later. We considered it a loss on our end. We truly hope the service improves to the standard we are accustomed. read more

We attended a workplace event here. Efficient valet parking. Interesting historic building. They circulated heavy hors d'oeuvres such as caprese salad, gyoza, mini poke bowls with fresh tuna, and a pear and cheese pastry. Good food with a wide array of interesting entrees on the buffet and great desserts including tiramisu. Sound quality was unclear when our colleagues were using the mic. Good music and we even danced a bit! read more

I've visited the hotel for a few holidays. We did a teddy bear tea party for Christmas and most recently an Easter brunch. Usually the celebrations are relatively grand. For Easter, they used to have a massive dessert table, a variety of seafood, poke, and tons of entertainment for the kids. I'm not sure what happened but this year's Easter fell quite short of what we were used to. The kids table was tucked away, there was no chocolate fountain. The dessert table was minuscule and half the things were miss labeled. They had done away with face painting which the kids all used to line up for. Their Easter brunch was never about value, but it was grand. This year's brunch just felt like a rip off. I don't think we'll be returning anytime soon. I see the reviews on Yelp have also gone down, so glad to know I'm not the only one thinking this place needs improvement. read more

Back for a graduation celebration: A fitting very elegant stylish place and definitely a great venue for an important event. I truly enjoy the combination of cocktails on the patio surrounded by the park, followed by a buffet-style menu. And I must say, despite the challenges of cooking for a major group of 200-300 people, every dish was very delicious. PREVIOUS REVIEW3 This time, the Langham was the site for the trainee graduation ceremony with lots of attendants. The ballroom was very nice. The food was not provided in table service but buffet style outside on the patio which accelerated the process and allowed for individualized portions and preferences. And most importantly, it was very good. PREVIOUS REVIEW2 Again, we chose the Langham for a bigger group. The group was fantastic, the Langham flunked. They were malprepared for the size of the group. The food would have been similarly great as in the past, but there were not enough chairs, not enough silverware, and once the event started, the service was abandoned. E.g. the coffee was not refilled, the plates were not removed: 4 stars for the food, 0-1 star for the organization, the service and the lack of attention. PREVIOUS REVIEW1: I generally do like the Langham very much with its generous layout nested in a park-like garden that surrounds the various buildings. One cannot avoid immediately feeling relaxed and getting the sense of being in a dream world. The interior is elegant, quiet, and clean, everything moves stress-free, and the employees are very polite and keen on pleasing. This is a great place for major events (and I definitely regard it classes higher than Jonathan Club or California Club), group gatherings, but it also has the decency and quality for exquisite small circle encounters. In contrast to past occasions, we this time met for a business dinner meeting. The setup included a beautifully arranged buffet-like collection of very nice salads, antipasti, cheeses, pasta, rice, vegetables, and both fish and meats. Everything was nicely done, obviously not including the designer-type plate arrangements of an a la carte menu, but nonetheless was inviting, fresh, and tasted very well. The desserts were superb and tempted to stay longer. The negatives: the room temperature was uncomfortably cold, and the coffee is below par.

I've always wanted to stay here, but we always ended up booking somewhere else. I'm so glad I finally secured a room in December, just in time for Christmas! I loved the festive Christmas vibes, the breakfast buffet, and the cozy yet lively atmosphere in the lobby and open yard. You can't beat the location! I booked through my Amex card, which gave me great rates and included breakfast--a fantastic bonus like 4pm late check out and free internet, and slippers. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, though they still don't do it justice! The style is classic with some modern touches. The room has some potential for improvement, but it didn't impact my overall experience. We had a room with a lovely view, which was a nice bonus. The room also included a coffee and tea machine with three options, complimentary water. On weekends, breakfast turns into brunch and is served until 1 PM. Soft drink is included but cappuccino or at social drink is extra . They offer a great variety, including a live egg station where you can get all kinds of eggs. I opted for the Eggs Benedict with spinach and mushrooms, and it was delicious! Valet parking was $40 read more

The Langham Teddy Bear experience is very special under the stewardship of the vivacious and warm Manager Dustie Bauer and her splendid staff. The version of an English tea with sandwiches and cocoa not withstanding await the splendid Bob Baker Marionette performance . After the show the children are greeted by a visit by Santa and his sidekick the wondrous Jack Frost. They are extremely entertaining. The afternoon is capped off by each child getting a teddy bear to always remember this holiday tradition. The joy is contagious as the Teddy Bear Tea , well organized by Dustie and presented in the delightful spirit of Christmas . read more

We are longtime Pasadena locals and have been coming to The Langham for years. We have many traditions that bring us here multiple times a year, which is why it has been so disappointing to see the service and experience decline visit after visit. Unfortunately our most recent visit was by far the worst and has made us seriously reconsider returning. We ordered one round of drinks and a single appetizer, about as simple and low maintenance as an order gets. Yet from the start everything went wrong. Our table was still dirty from the previous guests and no one bothered to clean it before seating us. I then watched our martinis sit on the bar for more than twenty minutes before anyone brought them over. Our food actually arrived before our drinks, which should never happen at a luxury hotel. Our drinks were no longer cold since they had been sitting for so long. At one point we wanted to order another round but our server disappeared for over thirty minutes. I asked another server walking by if we could close out, he said "sure" then completely ignored the request. I finally had to get up and find a manager just to pay our bill so we could leave. For a hotel that brands itself as a luxury property and charges luxury prices, this level of service is completely unacceptable. We've loved The Langham for years, but experiences like this make it very hard to justify coming back. read more

I spent one night at the Langham for a birthday staycation and had a five star experience. Every single staff member I interacted with went above and beyond to make my stay special. Because I booked through a partnership with one of my credit cards I received a delightful box of chocolates as a check-in gift, as well as early check-in and late check-out. I took full advantage of those extra hours to spend a full 24+ hours at the hotel. Between lounging poolside (the original pool has more shade than the newer one, so I stuck to it), walking the beautifully landscaped gardens, and enjoying the dining options in the hotel I had the perfect day. For a poolside lunch, I picked up a couple of sandwiches from Roma Market on the way to the hotel. My room was spacious, and overlooked the horseshoe gardens. I loved that there was a full walk-in shower in addition to a separate bath. Turn down service was a nice touch. For dining, I enjoyed a pre-dinner drink at the Tap Room. I appreciated that they had a few drink offerings that included a donation to a local nonprofit. Drinks were served with complimentary bar snacks, including tajin soaked gummy bears that were a surprise hit and when I mentioned off-hand how good they were the server brought out a second plate of them as a treat. For dinner, I dined outside on the terrace, which was a lovely experience. As they knew it was my birthday, I was greeted not only by the hostess but also by the manager, who seated me and took my order himself. All of the food was quite good, and at the end of the evening they brought me a complimentary dessert. When I had breakfast at the terrace the next day (this time inside, which was also a very nice experience) the manager remembered me and came by to say hi. Breakfast was similarly delicious. The only thing I might ding the hotel for is only offering valet parking, which is at a steep rate of $47 for overnight hotel guests. However, overall the hotel is charming and well run and I am already planning a return visit. read more

See all

Very disappointed. We went to their bar/lounge for the evening and they were very understaffed and so customers were not taken care of properly. And they charge a lot of money for awful service. I won't go in to all of the details, but everything took forever because our very nice server was overworked. That's should not happen and reflects poorly on management. They should have more staff than needed to make sure customers are taken care of if they're going to charge as much as they do. We walked outside to look at the grounds, and when we looked up we were shocked to see a VERY torn and tattered flag flying above the hotel. I googled it because I assumed it was very disrespectful to fly an American flag in that condition and sure enough, this is what I found, "Flying a torn or tattered American flag is considered disrespectful according to the U.S. Flag Code, though it's not illegal it is seen as dishonoring the nation and the military." While paying at the valet, a customer walked up and politely asked if they'd take his small plastic water bottle and throw it away, but the valet worker said, "there's a trash can behind you somewhere" and sent him on his way. Since when do you say no to customers, especially at an overpriced hotel like the Langham?! I realize that customer service is hard to find now a days, but I expect it when they're considered a high end hotel and we pay for good customer service. The entire experience was bad customer service, high prices, and a very disrespectful flag flying. This will be the last time we'll go there. read more

I recently stayed at the Langham for business and it was one of the best hotel experiences I've had in a long time! The staff is incredible, the dining options on site are memorable and delicious, and the renovated rooms are absolutely stunning! Seriously, the bedding is so comfortable, you definitely need to set an alarm because you're gonna sleep so well! If you're looking for a place that feels luxury and serene, without having to venture out too far from the city, look no further than the Langham Pasadena. read more

My wife and I stayed at the Langham Hotel in Pasadena for several nights, and the experience was fairly outstanding. From the very first sight of this historic beauty, you can't help but be moved by its history and classic feel. Perched in a lovely valley, this grand hotel is nestled among beautiful gardens and lovely homes. Its own little oasis from the surrounding LA vibe, you will be transported back in time here. Valet and check in were flawless, with first class service from the moment you arrive. The lobby and common areas of the Langham are simply stunning, and immaculately curated, and maintained. Veronica, from the front desk, was simply marvelous, and upgraded us to a guest cottage upon our arrival. Service at the gift shop/coffee bar was similarly excellent. The property itself is expansive, with lovely rolling grassy hills and space for every sort of walk and outdoor activity. A lovely Japanese style garden sits between two of the pools, offering guests a serene space to reflect, refocus and revive. Two pools, one adult only serve the property with music and pool side service, as well as cabanas that are available for daily rent. The food at The Langham was five stars, almost without exception. Room service options were plentiful, fast, and very flavorful. Breakfast at the Terrace was exactly what you would expect from a first class establishment. Snacks and lunch at the Tap Room were similarly excellent. Service is on point here at every level as warm, professional staff members look after every detail. Afternoon Tea service at the Lobby is among the best anywhere you will find in California, our server Margarita was simply incredible. Finally, the accommodations at the Langham, are the one area that can use a bit of freshening and refinement. Some guest room areas of the resort appear to have been renovated and updated, but the guest cottages are in need of refreshing and updating. Carpets in particular, were faded and worn, and not commensurate, with the overall excellent quality of the resort. In sum, a fantastic stay, at a wonderful historic property that is not to be missed. Four and a half stars. I highly recommend a stay at the iconic Langham hotel, and can't wait to return. read more
