The European-style Valadon Hotel is stashed away in a quiet, residential neighborhood between Sunset and Santa Monica boulevards in tony West Hollywood, close to Beverly Hills, Melrose Avenue, Rodeo Drive and Sunset Strip's oh-so-Southern California nightlife, restaurants and shopping. Guests can bop into the Strip's Viper Club, which is co-owned by actor Johnny Depp, and take in the famed Whiskey A-Go-Go. Surf's up 11 miles away at Santa Monica's beach. What's more, guests will find within 14 miles Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Kodak Theater, Hollywood Bowl, Universal Studios and Staples Center. Parents and kids can spend the day at Disneyland 36 miles down the highway, and then return to the all-studio suite boutique hotel to soak up the unique ambience.
The Valadon is marked by a custom-made, stained-glass canopy, while original art works in corridors and public areas cast a museum-like quality over the hotel. From the fourth-floor rooftop outdoor swimming pool and mineral spa, guests gain exceptional views of Hollywood Hills. The Valadon's front-desk staff can arrange in- room massages and tee times at area golf courses.
The Valadon's 80 suites are adorned with French country-style decor, raised sleeping areas, televisions, movies, fireplaces, refrigerators, minibars and high- speed Internet access.
For discreet but elegant accommodations, the Valadon Hotel is perfect, especially being so close to hopping entertainment and dining meccas.
