Los Angeles: Magnificent Mondrian!
On our last weekend in LA, we wanted to spoil ourselves, so we booked a room at amazing Mondrian on Sunset Boulevard.
Mondrian is really chic and stylish, and all those beautiful people in beautiful surroundings made AC and I feel slightly underdressed and flat-haired, as we stepped out of our red Jeep and into the sleek hotel lobby yesterday.
I was really excited about staying at Mondrian, since it’s known to be one of the best hotels in West Hollywood, so guess how thrilled I was, when Michael (sweet guy at the front desk) told us that we had been upgraded from a standard double room to a corner suite on the 11th floor!
We have an awesome view of the city and, and at the same time, we’re able to keep an eye on what’s happening down at Skybar, which is Mondrian’s famous pool bar. The suite is so gorgeous that it really takes an effort to leave the room for trivial stuff such as sightseeing and shopping, but today we went for a long walk down to The Ivy for brunch. Tomorrow, we also have plans, but I hope I can squeeze in a couple of hours by the pool to fully absorb these wonderful surroundings before we check-out from Mondrian and LA.
PS: That big mirror thing in the room is also a TV. Took us a while to figure that out:)
