Frommer's "A whimsical tapestry of living art... The whole place is visually compelling." Full review
Concierge "Love it or hate it, there's no denying that the details are impressive."

Book a room on a high floor to avoid lackluster views of low-rise apartment complexes.
Lonely Planet "A somewhat gaudy, somewhat sleek, centrally located habitat." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Friendly and efficient staff, a business center with high-speed Internet access, and meeting rooms with assets such as teleconferencing and video equipment are just some of the great perks."
Travel + Leisure "Combine Philippe Starck’s exuberant interiors with the genius for tapas of chef José Andrés and the retail vision of design curator Murray Moss, and you have a hotel unlike any other." Full review
Time Out "The ultra-modern (and ultra-pricey), SLS Beverly Hills is a design dream where visual (over) stimulation abounds and your eyes are blinded by so many white leather sofas." Full review
Star Service "In the heart of Restaurant Row, a short stroll to Beverly Center mall, this daring artistic venture exhibits the amped-up designs of style impresario Philippe Starck." Full review

Select second-floor guest rooms boast terraces; upgrades are available by request.
BlackBook "Mega luxury in the form of pools, fitness suites, all-access concierge, and 24-hour browsing of Moss merchandise set up throughout the restaurant, lobby, and lounges."

"This "classy" yet "cheeky" Philippe Starck–designed Beverly Grove "boutique" feels "like another world" (or at least "Las Vegas") thanks to "gorgeous" rooms."
Afar Magazine "Beautiful and dramatic, the SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills is a fantasy of design, set right in the heart of Los Angeles’ most decadent neighborhoods." Full review

Concierge "Shutters feels like a rambling seaside villa that's been plucked from Martha's Vineyard and dropped onto the boardwalk below Santa Monica Pier."
Fodor's "The beachfront location and show-house decor make this one of SoCal's most popular luxury hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This delightful hotel right by the sands of Santa Monica takes the beach cottage to new heights."
Rough Guide "This white-shuttered luxury resort south of the pier is the seafront home to the stars."
Travel + Leisure "This sprawling beach-house-style inn looks like it was airlifted from Nantucket and dropped on the Santa Monica shore." Full review
Time Out "Formerly a cool retreat for hot Hollywood stars and now a sister to Casa del Mar, Shutters has a relaxed but decidedly upscale style." Full review
Michelin Guide "A beachside-cottage feel undergirds this property set on the sands of Santa Monica Bay. Relax by the pool or have a massage at the spa."
Star Service "The beachfront setting and pleasurable poolside scene are notable, but the laudable meeting facilities and spring-heeled staff are ready for business at the drop of a sun visor." Full review

Avoid the rooms in the internally connected annex facing east as these could just as well be a separate entity called, "Shutters on the Parking Lot."
Gayot "At this on-the-beach retreat, travelers appreciate the respite from L.A.'s high octane atmosphere."
BlackBook "Plush pied-a-terre and oversized hot tubs for moneyed beach lovers. High-end cottage suites offer feast of Pacific views."
