Sunset Tower Hotel, Los Angeles
CN Traveler“Piercing the blue Californian skies on Sunset Boulevard, this elegant Art Deco tower has long been a landmark of the city, home to Hollywood greats since its arrival in 1931, courtesy of architect Leland A. Bryant.”

Kimpton La Peer Hotel, Los Angeles
CN Traveler + 1 more“Bright blooms from star florist Eric Buterbaugh undercut the heaviness of it all. Things perk up outdoors, where a sun-flooded bar that’s already a hit with the cool kids of West Hollywood wraps around the small swimming pool. Artworks from graffiti pieces by Retna to a topographical installation of the city are on display behind the front desk.”

The Surfrider Hotel Malibu, Los Angeles
CN Traveler“For a low-key, personal stay in Los Angeles you can do no better. This light-filled, design-forward spot was a motel in the 1950s before a California architect and his Australian wife transformed it.”

The Rose Hotel Venice, Los Angeles
New York Times“Close to Santa Monica but a world apart, the Rose Hotel makes for a perfect hideaway if you are in town for a beach vacation or business meeting. It is a quirky spot full of personality.”
