Frommer's "Hidden away just a stone's throw from the Getty Center and busy I-405... The overall ambience is very relaxing." Full review
Concierge "The leafy hillside property is peaceful enough to make you forget that the hotel's actually just a stone's throw from the massive 405 Freeway."
Fodor's "On seven landscaped acres near the Getty Center, the Luxe feels like a secluded country club—but it's also next to the I–405 for easy freeway access." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A lovely property with lush landscaping, this is conveniently located right next to Freeway 405. Spacious rooms in soothing colors feature extras such as DSL and fax machines."
Gayot "Located just west of the 405, this hotel is close to the Getty Center, Beverly Hills and Westside parks and beaches."
Time Out "A true urban retreat, the Luxe is situated on seven acres of lush grounds, replete with a heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, spa, on-site restaurant, and generously proportioned guest rooms." Full review
Jetsetter "Modern belle of Bel Air with tennis courts, heated pool, spa and seasonal Cali fare." Full review
Star Service " This is an excellent hotel, a posh yet unassuming place, but the din of near-constant traffic at the pool can be grating." Full review

"This Brentwood hotel has chic, modern furnishings that visitors love and a relaxed staff that's more than willing to entertain the whims of their guests." Full review

And the in-house eatery, On Sunset Restaurant, dishes out California cuisine with a hint of French flair (don't miss the jazz brunch on Sundays).
Michelin Guide "If anything the rooms are even more stylish than the public spaces, and they’re long on comfort as well. The look is sleek and contemporary, the interiors clearly designed rather than just decorated" 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."
