“Beautifully restored Spanish colonial-style hotel in the heart of Hollywood. Impeccable facilities ooze glamour. Its bars and restaurants, including an award-winning burger joint, are nightlife hotspots. A lively destination.”

Hotel review

As host of the first Academy Awards ceremony in 1929 and favourite of mega-stars Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable, this Spanish Colonial-style hotel has impeccable credentials. In 2005 designer Dodd Mitchell orchestrated its impressive restoration. The large, elegant bedrooms are now equipped with state-of-the-art technology and luxurious linens. Celebrated chef Tim Goodell oversees the steakhouse, Dakota, whilst the poolside bar Tropicana is the place to see and be seen, if you can get in.
