“Golden age Hollywood glamour”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

This was the perfect place to stay after an eleven hour flight from the UK. There was an instant sense of the history of the hotel and the glamour of golden age Hollywood. All of the staff members were incredibly welcoming and did their best to make us comfortable.

Our double room was spacious and relaxing, with a plush bathroom and a shower that didn’t leak out onto the floor (almost a first for hotel showers).

The pool was small; definitely a pool designed to be sat by rather than to be used, so that wasn’t a problem at all. Cocktails on the terrace by the pool as the sun set over the city came pretty close to perfection.

Finally – the restaurant. The food and service were exquisite but the restaurant was very dark. This gave it a cosy, intimate feeling and we had a great evening. The truffle mac and cheese went down very well.

“My All-Time Favorite Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 22, 2013

Absolute old school glamour! Sunset Tower is as chic and gorgeous as you could imagine but, unlike many alternatives, has no pretenses and doesn't feel overly youthful. I adored my large suite and the dusky hallways that brought to mind Raymond Chandler novels. I especially loved the staff who made me feel as comfortable in the hotel AND the sophisticated Tower Bar as any of the celebrities that frequent it.

“Fabulous”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

We adored everything about this hotel. It has the vintage Hollywood touches but is updated perfectly with modern marble bathrooms, very comfortable beds and luxurious linens. The windows in the room open up so you can feel the breeze. Breakfast was awesome, terrace and pool area are heaven, Tower Bar is the perfect hangout spot. We even used the little gym and it was great for what we needed with nice equipment (though the hallway to get there is kind of smelly and old). Service was fantastic in all areas. Couldn't have been happier with our choice to stay here and can't wait to return.

Room Tip: Wouldn't recommend room with 2 twin beds unless absolutely necessary - there are only 2 and they...

“Old Hollywood Glamour”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

Beautiful hotel in a fantastic location with a wonderful & attentive staff. The classic beauty of the bar-restaurant and the poolside lounge exceeded expectations. Our large room was equally as impressive and a great value. Loved its history as well. Highly recommend!!

“Going to miss the lovely sunny LA.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 14, 2013

My girlfriend and I recently stayed at this hotel. What a find! This spot is absolutely gorgeous and reminiscent of the golden age of Hollywood. Many celebs of the era lived here as well. Service throughout the Sunset Tower is phenomenal. From the valet greeting us every morning to the fantastic housekeepers everything was wonderful. We loved having breakfast poolside at the Terrace Restaurant. Angel lives up to his name! We would especially like to thank Derrick and Victoria for excellent service. The buffet is beautiful and had quite the selection. Last but not least, Drew, the front desk manager was a joy to speak with every day. If you are looking for a luxurious and non-pretentious place to stay look no further than the Sunset Tower Hotel. We will definitely be returning!
