Cool hangout: Petit Ermitage, Private Rooftop Club, Los Angeles, California


 What’s so cool, Curbappeal?
- A very exclusive ‘private club’ in LA: This hotel is where young film and music stars stay when they want to relax in a low-key, residential, environment. Not widely known outside the media industry. During our stay at the hotel, lounging by the pool, we saw Mario Testino’s number two/stylist sashaying back-and-forth with her crew, a UK girl pop group sat on the loungers next to us, and we chatted to an uber-cool UK film crew covering a local music event.
- Dining at the restaurant feels a bit like you’re in a whimsical French country cottage garden. Yet the Hollywood Hills are clearly in view from this roof-deck: a slightly surreal experience, but a good one!
- Delicious Mediterranean dishes: the lamb tagine in the photo below was melt-in-your-mouth good.
As you’ll see by our last photo, the outside fireplaces are heavenly to snuggle up next to. This was our first night so, jetlagged, I succumbed to the warmth of the fire…
      - The only slight disappointment was the rooms – they don’t look anywhere near as good, or as nicely appointed as the roof-deck, so we’d suggest staying somewhere else, and see if you can book a table at the restaurant…

Some photo’s from our Canon SLR….
