"Guest rooms are pretty minimalist in decor, but comfortable; half have views of the Strip (with blackout shades to deal with the flashing lights at night)." Full review

"It's no longer as hip or famous as its West Hollywood neighbors (the Chateau, Sunset Tower, and Mondrian), and the service can be spotty." Full review
Time Out
"It's the perfect perch from which to sip on grown-up cocktails and gaze at the next generation of rockers partying on the Strip." Full review
Star Service
"Don't let the sassy boutique feel fool you: This is a deluxe-leaning offering with service that steps a little higher than what you'll find at the more colorful Mondrian.

"Massive in size and raucous in reputation, this former Hyatt offers a sizzling hotel experience to touring rock bands, celebrities and tourists alike."

"The glory days of the Riot Hyatt long gone, but nothing can take away location cachet. Still technically a Hyatt, but going under boutiquey Andaz label."

"The former "Riot Hyatt" – "legendary" for all the musicians who "trashed the rooms" here – this "modern", "swanky" Sunset Strip star with a "killer rooftop pool"."
Fodor's
"On the north side of the Sunset Strip, the ANdAZ is a youthful update of the former Hyatt West Hollywood, catering to hipsters, techies, and rock stars." Full review
Afar Magazine
"These days, the rock-star legacy carries on mostly in hotel lifestyle: free minibar snacks replenished daily, a personal everything-you-need Andaz Host, and the highest rooftop pool in L.A." Full review

"Venice’s entry in the chic boutique hotel movement sweeping LA, this 23-year-old motor inn has been dressed up, colored and otherwise funkified in retro style." Full review

"An eccentric 119-room hotel for budget-conscious travelers that's an easy walk to Venice Beach and plays off the area's hippie-centric history." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This branch of the Best Western is a pleasant Venice Beach hotel, giving you easy access to interesting cafés and stores."
Travel + Leisure
"Located within a block of the lively Venice boardwalk, the look of this hipster hotel is one of uncluttered, new-styled retro." Full review

Barlo's barn-to-belly theme surfaces at all meals and is much appreciated by local hipsters, but be sure to make reservations on weekend eves.
Gayot
"Overlooking famous Muscle Beach, this boutique-style hotel is just a few blocks away from the dining and shopping of busy, trendy Abbot Kinney and close to the historic Venice canals."
BlackBook
"No longer a Best Western, but still vibrant colors and bits of local flair. In the morning, rooftop brunchies, at night, rooftop drinkies."
Zagat
"This stylish Joie de Vivre boutique hotel sits on the edge of the boardwalk, in the heart of zany Venice Beach, offering smallish rooms with a bigger view."
