For a boutique

Sip on champagne based cocktails and enjoy luxury snacks and high-end service. A unique option for those who want something other than the standard chain offerings.

For an unusual stay

• The Magic Castle Hotel is renowned not, in fact, for the hotel but instead the attached "Magic Castle" - a near impossible to enter club for those in the magic industry. The rooms are comfortable and there is an excellent breakfast and a sunny pool area. Be sure to check the magic show line up before booking.

For the nightlife

• Hollywood Roosevelt is a beautifully restored Spanish colonial-style hotel located in the thick of it on Hollywood Boulevard. Rooms are spacious and contemporary. With two hip restaurants, five bar options (from classic to poolside), and a nightclub popular with celebrities - pick this property for a lively stay.
• Dream Hollywood is a chic modern stay complete with a thriving in-house nightlife scene. Minimalist rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows (the best span two walls) and large rain showers. A vibrant hotel well suited to the young and hip. With a dizzying choice of bars and restaurants - you'll hardly need to leave!

For the design

• W Hollywood is a youthful property just moments from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Expect vibrant design - very contemporary but not too serious - there's a playful feel. The rooftop pool and bar is a happening spot, there's excellent Californian cuisine and a cocktail bar. Perfect for the creative crowd.
• Kimpton Everly Hotel is a chic hotel located in a hilly neighbourhood (near the Hollywood sign) boasting spectacular city views. Spacious rooms are all white on white with pops of colour coming from contemporary artwork. Sip a cocktail beside the rooftop pool and dine in style at the all American restaurant. A very stylish option.
