    @cutz I’m booked there too but am also uncertain about the walk back.  Want to do a safety in numbers thing for the walk back? Are you doing both nights? Feel feee to DM me.

    Also had Hilton LAX they say they have a shuttle to and from the Forum. Willnhave to check in on those details. As previously mentioned this is not an area  to walk around. Safest to swallow the cost of an uber/lyft surge. Not sure if the forum has taxis waiting. Really hoping they have some form of on premises security. 
    I just emailed that Hilton and they said the shuttle is only for airport.  Maybe you got a different person but I’d be skeptical of this shuttle idea, even though it would be a totally good business idea for a hotel.

    Thanks everyone for the great tips and information. I ended up going with the Hilton Checkers in LA. Found a decent rate from hotels.com. Can’t wait for may!

    Actually, just looked up your hotel. You'll probably be fine. 
    I am there as well, nice to know I won't be alone. 10 club party at the pool!

    Has anyone been able to confirm whether or not the Hilton has a shuttle to the Forum? I would definitely consider booking there if they did. 

    Debating whether to rent a car, stay closer to other stuff and drive to the shows, or stay close to the shows and use Uber to get around during the day... a hotel with a shuttle to the Forum would be brilliant.

    I'm still not booked.  Not much to do if you stay close is what people have said.  I'm thinking of staying a little further away for stuff to do during the days.

    I'm starting to look at sonder lum myself, or Lax (Hilton)hotels. Flying solo, any more insight would be appreciated.

    I might be going as well and also flying solo. Wouldn’t mind an Uber mate if possible. Thinking Hilton

    Let me know. Looks like from the comments 1 or 2 others were staying there as well. Haven't booked yet.

    made last minute decision to go to Fresno and Sacramento instead. Amazing seats right near stage for pretty much face value.

    Husband and I are driving our camper from Montana & doing SD-LA-OAK and camping along the coast between shows. Can't wait! We're staying at Dockweiler Beach campground for the 2 LA shows. It's right next to LAX so gonna be loud but sounds like a decent spot to camp that's near-ish the venue. Planning on ubering to/from the Forum but would love to find a better way to get back to the campground after the show. Guess we'll just wait with the masses.

    Was there any other LAX Hilton people? Looks like all Lax hotels are kind of close together.

    That sounds like a fantastic trip! We're doing the same shows but it will be much less cost effective with hotels and trains and rental cars. I'm pretty excited though. :smiley:

    Just cancelled my room at Hilton LAX and switched to Westin LAX.  Was a little cheaper and the rooms are bigger.

    Awesome! Other than Ohana, we haven't spent any time on the southern CA coast so we're super looking forward to spending time exploring. Do you already have all your stops booked between LA - OAK? We're going to play that portion by ear as it's during the week and there seems to be a bit more campground availability then than the weekends. It's like a competitive sport to book a campground on the beach on a weekend ;) I've learned a lot about making reservations 6 months in advance!

    Sheraton Gateway LAX. I've stayed there before and caught a cab back from the Forum after a concert. Had to wait in line maybe 30 minutes. That was 2017 though, do cabs still exist? I was also there for the Super Bowl this year and the post-game transportation wasn't great. Wound up walking to Chili's on Century Blvd and hanging out for awhile until we could get an Uber back to Marina del Rey. There's a casino in the same complex too. Might have better luck walking over and getting an Uber from there.
