"It's easy to tap into the Sunset Strip energy here, especially at the hotel's new Olive Kitchen Bar restaurant and rock-n-roll–styled lounge, the Cutting Room." Full review

Ask for a room facing the interior courtyard, both to avoid noise from the Strip and to overlook the heated saline-pool area with its mosaic-tile waterfall and striped lounge chairs.
Lonely Planet
"We like this charismatic boutique hotel for its feng shui aesthetic, enormous swimming pool, and rooms sporting such nifty touches as organic bath amenities." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Standing next to the Mondrian, the Grafton has a more accessible and low-key ambience."

"Throw a splash of exotic South Beach Miami onto the Sunset Strip and the result is unique hotel, complete with sweeping L.A. city views."
BlackBook
"Simple Sunset villa boasts Boa, and that alone makes it the chic place to be. Cool without trying too hard, while aristocrats think it a glorified Motel 6."

If you're a light sleeper, request a room away from the pool area, where the occasional nighttime pool party can get loud.

DK Eyewitness
"This cool Beverly Hills hot spot has intimately lit cabanas that fringe the curvaceous pool."

Star Service
"Located at South Canon Drive, a half-mile south of Wilshire Boulevard, this hotel sits in a more down-to-earth section of Beverly Hills that contributes to its moderate rates." Full review
Gayot
"In 1998, Kor Hotel Group took it over and did a complete renovation, creating a hip retro-fifties-style hotel."
