Request one of the "27 series" rooms, which are junior suites that are larger and have the best views.

"With a waterfront location on a harbor, not the beach, there's little reason to stay here unless you're boating or have a business meeting at the hotel." Full review

Time Out
"Marina del Rey's best hotel is every bit as smart as you'd hope a Ritz-Carlton to be. The rooms are traditional without being stuffy; many have views over the marina." Full review

"The nightlife scene has cooled; while Teddy's is still filled with young Hollywood starlets, the Tropicana has quieted into a romantic, relaxed place for drinks."

"Think hip bachelor pad when considering the Roosevelt." Full review
Insight Guides
"Legendary landmark hotel with lots of Art Deco trimmings, but its palm-shaded pool and sleek steakhouse make this a modern-day, happening scene."

"A stone’s throw away from Hollywood and Highland is this famous Hollywood hotel."
Rough Guide
"The first hotel built for the movie greats in 1927. The place reeks of atmosphere, with boutique rooms, cabanas and suites, plus a jacuzzi, fitness room and swimming pool."
Time Out
"After a 2003 restoration by designer Dodd Mitchell, this 1927 landmark, a beautiful example of Spanish colonial design, once more welcomed the A-listers who frequented it during Hollywood's heyday." Full review
Star Service
"This may look laidback and loungey compared to the newer, neon-flavored W Hotel, but this place is the area's leader for trendsetters.

"Hollywood history not only haunts the place, this is also your best bet to see present stars throwing a pose."
