A Relaxed Retreat in the Heart of Sunset
Ian Schrager has transformed a historic Hollywood landmark into an upscale, laid‑back haven.

- Rooms: 137 suites with a minimalist aesthetic – no TVs, no spa, no elaborate dining
Dining Reimagined

- Pool Bar: Burgers & sundaes
- Pool Deck: Meze, salads, sandwiches
Concepts crafted with Shelley Armistead (ex‑Gjelina) and Nicky Pickup (ex‑Gjusta), delivering a local, approachable menu.
Guest Experience

- Rooms: Floor‑to‑ceiling 4K laser projection screens (private cinema), improved soundproofing, partnership with architect John Pawson.
- Nightclub: Glamorous, sophisticated “sealed‑off sound stage” with immersive audio; no blinding lasers.
