The Total LA Experienxe!
If you're an "out of towner" looking for the glitz and glam of Hollywood, the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles is the place to stay!
The first thing you'll notice is the location....right on Sunset next to The House Of Blues and close to everything! In addition, you're right on a bus line to take you sight seeing into downtown Hollywood. Ride the Dash for $.25...yes, that's twenty-five cents!
The bellmen looked as if they had all walked out of the pages of GQ with their suave outfits, clean appearances and eager-to-serve attitudes. They were friendly, helpful and full of tips on what to see, where and when.
The room was average in size, but boasted a bigger than life, super king bed with the finest thread count sheets, down comforter and enormous down pillows. White was the decor...very clean lines and simple except for the beautiful live orchid adorning the side table along with the retro magazines. The view alone made this room spectacular, as we could see all of the hollywood lights for miles.
The hotel was chic and ecclectic in decor...very unusual, but sophisticated. The restaurant seats some of Hollywood's "who's-who" and the night club, The Sky Bar, was tinseltown at it's finest! Have you ever had a cocktail under the stars surrounded by lanterns, torches and toss pillows while lounging on a matress? Then you must make the Sky Bar your evening stop for liquid refreshment.
And please don't forget to relish in the Aqua Spa products provided instead of the usual soaps and shampoos!! You'll be spoiled and MUST purchase full sized bottles for home for the mini bar! At the time of our stay, we needed a fresh robe and stereo cd player...they were delivered within MINUTES!
I cannot say enough about this hotel...give it a try for the real deal in Hollywood glam!
