- 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…
