1 Hotel West Hollywood
LOS ANGELES
8490 Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood, 1hotels.com/west-hollywood With outposts in Miami and New York, the high-end environmentally friendly luxury hotel recently opened its newest and first West Coast location in Los Angeles this past May. Nestled at the base of the Hollywood Hills and set on famed Sunset Strip, the sprawling hotel boasts sweeping views of Downtown LA in a modern, minimally chic urban oasis. The hotel’s ethos is rooted in cause-driven sustainability. Everything – from the flooring to the keys and the in-room hangers – is made from reclaimed wood. Tiny chalk slates replace bedside notepads and a clever stone inscribed with “Now” on one side and “Not Now” on the other serves as a “Do Not Disturb” sign. The hotel’s remarkably cool app is just another way the 1 Hotel delivers exceptional service, making it super easy to order everything from delicious bites like black truffle risotto to homemade baby food and all-natural pet food. Every inch of the space, from the Juniper Bar in the lobby to the hip roof deck pool, exudes a SoCal chic vibe – so appealing you may never want to leave. – Tala Habbal

Guests enter Moxy Chelsea at ground level, via the Putnam & Putnam flower store.

The rooms are all under 18 square meters in size (except the one suite on the 32nd floor), encouraging guests to minimize the time they spend indoors and instead explore and rediscover the magic of Manhattan. – Niku Kasmai
