Universal City features two on-site hotels: the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City and Sheraton Universal Hotel. Visitors wanting to be at the heart of the action are sure to want to stay in one of the two, while budget-savvy travellers and those hoping to be close to some of Los Angeles’s other famed attractions will find off-site accommodation options elsewhere in the city.
Getting to and from the park is fairly straightforward, even if you don’t have your own car.
