Superlative
This is a great hotel, newly refurbished with quality service and amenities.
Hotel was booked out this time so got a room facing Pico Blvd, try and request a room on the Beverly Hills side, prettier outlook and quieter. Preferred the white decor to the brown.
Service is excellent everywhere but at the check in, where they tend to be less friendly and more off hand. As I was staying a second time in six months was disappointed that my request for a room on the Beverly Hills side was brushed off so easily. It is all in how you say things. 
The staff that excel are at the concierge, Angel who drives the Hotel Car, Angel who collected our bags and all the guys outside in their suits who set high standards in customer service and friendliness. The restaurant is a treat and it is easy walking distance to Rodeo Drive. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
