If you have a suite tooth, Le Montrose Hotel in West Hollywood may be the place for you. Only junior, executive and one-bedroom suites are available at this unassuming, recently refurbished boutique find. The apartment-style spot also offers laundry facilities, a saltwater pool and lighted tennis courts. Nestled on a quiet residential street, you’d never guess that frenetic Sunset Strip is just five minutes away. But the décor isn’t quiet at all, and it borders on too-trendy, with wild elements such as oversized cylindrical lamps and mixed-pattern bedding. The private dining room is exclusively for guests, although many don’t know about it, and it has plasma screens for your viewing pleasure. But Santa Monica and Sunset boulevards are both lined with tons of fabulous restaurants, so hop over to Bossanova for casual Latin fare (delicious plantains) or The Courtyard for white blueberry-lemonade sangria.
