Stayed here for one night as part of a stop over in LA on our first night of our Honeymoon & was not disappointed.
Great location opposite Beverley Hills Shopping Centre - literally across the road.
Very modern lobby, spotted a celebrity upon check in - Chris Brown - popular US singer.
Rooms were very clean - great views of Hollywood.
There was a very funky & popular bar in the lobby which unfortunately we didnt get a chance to visit.

Overall - beautiful & friendly hotel.

I had fallen in love with the Sofitel in Chicago so I was curious to see how the one in L.A. stacked up and once again I was blown away.

The management and staff were extremely accomodating and helpful, room service was quick (get Simon's junk food selection with cotton candy and cupcakes and order in a movie one night), the pool was the warmest heated pool I had ever gone swimming in, the architecture and design of the hotel, spa, restaurant and bar was beautiful, and we even had a celebrity spotting--Ice T!

The hotel is right across the street from the Beverly Center so we had plenty of choices for shopping and restaurants but it's still quite a walk to Rodeo Drive and other hot spots.

And don't let cab drivers scam you from LAX! It should only be $40 and we paid $71! That was the only time I gritted my teeth during our stay but that wasn't the hotel's fault it was our own and the shady cab driver's.

A soak in their suite's hot tub though did the trick. If you get a suite, the huge bathroom has a tv by the tub and I took advantage of it every day. Such a wonderful experience, I hope to return soon.

My husband and I spent 4 nights at this hotel. We booked this hotel based on reviews we have read. The location is great for shopping on Robertson - the trendy boutique street, also home of the celeb dining hot spot - Ivy.
I was disappointed by the rooms, although the bathrooms were nice. The size of the room was too small. The bed was extremely comfortable, though. It took forever to get our rooms made up each day - at least 3 p.m. before we got daily housekeeping service, which is disapointing.
Also disappointing is the distance of the pool and spa from the hotel rooms. It is a LONG walk, no matter what room you are in. We did not try out the bar or restaurant, though the decor was quite appealing.

We stayed in room 629 (next to the lift lobby, so some noise from people using the lifts, but not too much of a problem). The room faced the rear so there was no traffic noise like the rooms at the front, plus we had a view of the Hollywood sign from our bed (if you squint and it is a clear day!!! - but we found this really special).

Breakfast was excellent, especially the continental breakfast (in bed!) which came with 5 different breads/pastries each, plus fresh juice, homemade smoothie and a huge pot of coffee.

Staff very friendly. One downside was the showergel/shampoo was never replaced (we stayed 5 nights) - we had to call and ask for new supplies.

We didn't hire a car in LA, and found this location to be generally easy to get around. The DASH bus stops adjacent to the hotel and will take you to Hollywood Blvd for 25 cents. Best Bargain in LA!!!!! But note, this stops running after about 7pm. The Metro bus runs longer, but need to change buses ($5 all day pass, or $1.25 single journey). We went down to Santa Monica (about 40 minutes from hotel).

Overall, a very enjoyble stay in the heart of West Hollywood, close to Beverly Hills and good shopping opposite hotel.
