Figueroa - Great atmosphere (3 stars)
We love Figueroa because...
The atmosphere is something else, a mix of Moroccan/Indian/Mexican and all the rooms are tastefully decorated in exotic colours and an eclectic mix of styles. The little Cuban style café is well worth a visit. The location is also excellent, near to Macey's, the Staples convention centre and downtown area is easily walk able.From £23.00 pppn -
Angeleno - Quintessentially LA!! Stylish, cozy, chic and cool!! (4 stars)
We love Angeleno because...
The Angeleno is a super boutique hotel and affordable too! Chic and stylish and of a comfortable size, not too big or too small. Aside from the cool décor one of the best features of this hotel has to be the beds!.. Soft, plush and super comfy!! .. you will be sorely tempted to order the delicious room service kick back and watch a movie on the flat screen TV!.. But if you can drag yourself out you won’t have far to go, nestled between Brentwood and Bel Air, it's right off of Sunset, and only a few blocks from Wilshire. Easy to go west to Santa Monica and the beach, or east to Beverly Hills or Hollywood.From £32.75 pppn -
