The Hills Inn Eagle Rock - Near Old Town Pasadena

Inside a low-slung 1960s motor-court building on Colorado Boulevard, The Hills Inn Eagle Rock keeps its exterior parking-facing layout, a practical setup for drivers who'd rather skip valet lines in Old Town Pasadena eight minutes east.

Rooms are basic two-star, but the location bridges two neighborhoods: Old Town's restaurants and the Rose Bowl to the east, Eagle Rock's taquerias and thrift shops to the west along the same boulevard.

Glendale's Americana and Downtown LA both sit within a twenty-minute drive via the 134, making this a workable midpoint base for travelers splitting time between the two.
