Favorite hotel:the Sofitel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills

Where is it?

At the intersection of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, very close to the mythical Rodeo Drive, Melrose Avenue and Sunset Boulevard.

Why is it good?

This 295-room establishment, including 28 suites, perfectly mixes Hollywood glamor and the French way of life. SoBed bedding with feather duvet, SoSpa spa with Carita and Décleor treatments, heated outdoor swimming pool with deckchairs, fitness room, elegant Riviera 31 piano bar with amazing cocktails... the ideal cocoon to recover from jet lag!

What do we eat there?

Lobster and burgers at the brand new Cattle &Claw restaurant. Chef Pete Manfredini was inspired by the English chain Burgers &Lobsters for this ephemeral restaurant that takes the place of the usual Estérel with chic Californian-Mediterranean cuisine. No need to choose between steak and lobster at Cattle &Claw, you can combine the two in the same dish!

What are we doing around here?

A shopping spree at Sunset Plaza, a visit to the legendary Universal and Paramount film studios in Hollywood, a surf session in Santa Monica… Not to mention the superb museums The Broad or Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in the Downtown district.
