Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles

Nestled on 12 acres in the Bel-Air Estates neighborhood of Los Angeles, the iconic Hotel Bel-Air is one of the most beautiful, romantic, and exclusive hotels in the world. Just opened after a two year transformation, this Spanish mission-style urban oasis wins a never-ending stream of praise for its faultless service, luxurious accommodations, and magical ambiance. 

 

All newly renovated rooms and suites feature a new generation of design aesthetic and is reflected through different design themes from the glamorous decades of the 1930s, 40s and 50s conveyed in a fresh, youthful and elegant manner.
 

The famous restaurant, bar, catering and in-room dining services are managed by world-renowned Master Chef Wolfgang Puck with a menu featuring modern California cuisine with European and Mediterranean influences in a spectacular garden setting. 

 

ROOMS & SUITES

Surrounded by 12 acres of lush gardens Hotel Bel-Air has 58 guestrooms and 45 suites, including 7 one of a kind specialty suites. 

The incredible re-design of Hotel Bel-Air by the famed interior designer Alexandra Champalimaud was inspired by 1930's, 1940's and 1950's Hollywood, a period of Southern Californian residential architecture and design that produced an all American style evoking glamour and graceful living with international flair.

The Bel-Air’s design has always mixed the influences of Spanish colonial, layered with the smooth finishes and graceful shapes of French Deco, the last word in fashion of the time. The style that emerged was young, fun, fresh and elegant. Stone floors in limestone and polished marble, smooth, pale plaster walls, natural wood ceilings and rich finishes and textures with bold strokes of color in furnishings were melded to create a confident style that complements the glorious garden atmosphere.

Hotelier Avi Brosh Returns with Palihotel Melrose Avenue, Opening in February

Three years after opening his stylish extended-stay hotel, Palihouse Holloway in West Hollywood, and over a year after ceding his vision for Palihouse Hollywood to Sam Nazarian's SBE empire, Los Angeles hotelier Avi Brosh is once again back on top with the Palihotel on Melrose Avenue opening in February 2012.
The 32-room boutique hotel is envisioned as a "European neighborhood inn" which is quite the opposite of the Palihouse Holloway, specifically regarding the size of the guestrooms. Where Palihouse rooms start at 600-sq.ft., the rooms at Palihotel will measure about 250-sq.ft. and come in Twin or Queen categories.
And while rooms at Palihouse have little kitchenettes, guests at the Palihotel will instead head down to the Palikitchen, a coffee shop/cafe that will service breakfast, lunch and dinner in a self-service format.
Of course, the trade-off is that rooms at the Palihotel will be crazy affordable, starting at $150 a night.

Yet that doesn't mean Brosh will skimp on design and detail here. Walls will be a deep, dark green, custom-made furniture will be found throughout the property and the guest rooms will have fabrics mixed with brass, cork and other rustic details. In-room products will be signature to the brand but the minibars will be stocked with Dean & Deluca goodies.
The hotel will also feature an outdoor garden with a lounge area, a seven-bed Thai massage spa and a blow-out salon open to hotel guests and locals.
But the best thing about Palihotel, is it's location, literally steps away from great shopping on Melrose Avenue. Fred Segal is two blocks in one direction, Fairfax Ave is two blocks in the other direction and The Grove shopping center is just a mile south. Finally, we have an affordable, non-sketchy, convenient yet design-forward and fun option in the middle of Los Angeles, something this part of the city has so desperately needed.
Right now, there's no renderings of Palihotel and the website is still in the works but you can keep up with the hotel's progress on Twitter (@Palihotel) and on Facebook.

Beacher's Madhouse

Beacher's Madhouse, a 1920s-style cabaret in the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, is the most over-the-top bar to open in Los Angeles in years (and this is not a city known for subtlety).

Let us show you to your seat—it's just past the sexy librarian, through a trick bookcase wall, and inside a giant golden birdcage. Order at the Midget Bar (we don't make the names, it's labeled that way in neon), where a little person will make you mini cocktails in mini glasses. Looking for table service? A waiter flying through the air on a pulley system delivers the drinks. And don't get us started on the madcap cast of contortionists, monkeys, and mini Lady Gagas onstage. Oh, and half-naked ladies, too. This is L.A., after all

Romantic Valentine's Getaway

Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel completed a $50 million dollar refurbishment in 2005 that has brought the glamour of Hollywood's fabled past back to Hollywood Boulevard.

Home to the town's hottest Tropicana Bar and Tim & Liza Goodell's chophouse Dakota, the hotel is buzzing with scene-makers, musicians and the entertainment industry's glitterati. The most popular destination on property is often the hotel's heated outdoor swimming pool with depths up to 9ft, one of the largest outdoor hotel pools in Los Angeles; it boasts the only place in the world you can swim in a million dollar piece of art, as original tiles are painted by acclaimed artist David Hockney.

The Hollywood Roosevelt hotel offers the Dakota chop house, 24-hour gourmet burger bar 25 Degrees, Library bar cocktail lounge, and Tropicana, our poolside bar.

WOW FACTORS

Marilyn Monroe posed for her first ad - for suntan lotion - on the diving board of the Roosevelt's pool. She stayed at the hotel often over the years, preferring a second floor Cabana Room overlooking the pool.
