If you’re looking for a new kind of vacation experience, consider Andaz West Hollywood, a new luxury hotel that offers attentive personalized service and a deep connection to its rich cultural location — on the Sunset Strip surrounded by downtown Los Angeles and the Hollywood Hills. Upon arrival, visitors will be greeted by a personal host who will serve as front desk agent, bell attendant, and concierge throughout the entire stay, and provide insider tips and tours if desired. General manager Michel Morauw was in town recently to showcase the remarkable features of this new Hyatt venture. Andaz hopes to tailor the hotel experience to each guest, making every stay fit individual plans and lifestyles.
Formerly the Hyatt West Hollywood, the hotel has been redesigned to combine the sophistication of Hollywood glamour with the sexy atmosphere of the Sunset Strip and the rock’n’roll heritage passed on by its predecessor. Guests will enjoy meals at RH, a fresh approach to Southwestern French cuisine headed by executive chef Sebastien Archambault, custom cocktails, and high-quality spirits at RH Lounge, and an expansive rooftop sundeck with private cabanas and a heated pool. Visitors can take advantage of Andaz’s great location, situated next to the Comedy Store, across the street from House of Blues, and in close proximity to over 100 restaurants and cafes, 40 nightclubs and music venues, upscale boutiques and galleries, and many other Los Angeles attractions.
Andaz plans to open three new locations in the near future — Andaz Fifth Avenue, New York; Andaz Wall Street, New York; and Andaz Austin, Texas — in addition to its original Andaz Liverpool Street, London, and the West Hollywood location. (www.andaz.com) RINA VAN ORDEN
