High hedges and patio gardens make this hotel a secluded retreat that even the hum of traffic can't permeate. It's a favorite of Hollywood's elite, so don't be surprised by a well-known face poolside or in the Windows bar. (Come awards' season, expect to spot an Oscar winner or two.) The staff here will make you feel pampered, as will the lavish guest rooms, which have beds with Frette linens, soft robes and slippers, and French doors leading to balconies. Extras include 24-hour business services, overnight shoe shine, and a morning newspaper. For a relaxing meal, you can dine poolside on the tropically landscaped terrace. Massages here are among the best.
