Los Angeles: Magnificent Mondrian!

Corner suite at Mondrian, Los Angeles

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:)

Los Angeles is a city you don’t quite figure out all at once. It unfolds slowly, neighborhood by neighborhood, mile by mile. Vast and sun washed, cinematic and oddly intimate, it’s a place of constant contrast. Morning hikes in the canyons. Long lunches that stretch into late afternoon. Evenings that end by the ocean with salt in your hair and traffic humming somewhere in the distance. What I love most about LA is that it feels less like a single city and more like a collection of distinct worlds stitched together by freeways and palm trees. A strip mall might hide one of the best meals you’ll have all year. A quiet residential street can lead to a view that stops you in your tracks. The glamour is there if you look for it, but so is a relaxed, everyday rhythm that makes the city surprisingly livable. On this page, I’ve gathered my Los Angeles favorites. The restaurants I return to. The neighborhoods I linger in. The places that capture the particular mix of ambition, creativity, and laid back energy that defines the city.
