Sunset Tower Hotel

Every aspect of our stay was delightful. Each staff member, breakfast in the patio, daily service, as well as the staff’s helpfulness throughout the day. This location put us in a good spot for live music at the Troubador and La Bohème. The hotel’s restaurant have a cool mix of swanky and casual in throwback clubby setting. We will be back.

Our stay here exceeded all expectations. The hotel, of course, was special due to its historic nature and reputation. The food and drinks exquisite. I expected those things. But it was the personnel that made it exceed expectations. Each and every person…the front desk, the valet, housekeeping, bartenders and restaurant staff was professional yet personal. They made us feel like we were the most important guest, remembered our names, treated us with comfortable courtesy. Professional but not stiff or stuffy. It is the people that truly made the difference. Highly recommend.

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve stayed at the Sunset Tower Hotel—close to a dozen now—and not once have I ever been disappointed. In fact, I’d invite anyone reading this to look at my previous reviews, because this place is truly something special. Housed in an iconic Art Deco building on Sunset Boulevard, the hotel is perfectly decorated to transport guests straight into the golden era of Hollywood. Its warm lighting, elegant lines, and timeless touches make you feel part of something cinematic the moment you step inside. The location, of course, is superb—but what makes this hotel unforgettable is not just its beauty. The real magic is in the people. The team here is simply extraordinary. They have a gift for making every guest feel like a movie star—remembering names, recalling preferences, and offering exactly what you need before you’ve even thought to ask. This isn’t just good service; it’s genuine care, delivered with grace and charm. To anyone reading this review and debating whether to book here over anywhere else in Los Angeles—please, do yourself a favor and make the reservation. You will not regret it. The Sunset Tower is an independent property, clearly loved by its owner, and it shows in every detail. This is not a corporate, cookie‑cutter luxury hotel where guests are merely revenue on a spreadsheet. Here, you feel the pride of a team who truly values your stay and takes joy in making it exceptional. I must also give a special thank‑you to Angel from the restaurant team. Each time we went downstairs, Angel greeted us as though we were the most important guests ever to visit. His warmth, attentiveness, and ability to make us feel completely at home turned each meal into a highlight of our stay. My work takes me across the U.S. often, and I can say with complete honesty—nothing else compares to the Sunset Tower Hotel. Even as I write this, I’m already looking for an excuse to return to Los Angeles just so I can book my next stay here. Thank you to the entire Tower team for yet another unforgettable experience.

The Sunset Tower was lovely. I stayed there with my 8 year old and while it's definitely geared toward grown-up visitors, the staff was friendly and welcoming to my kid and we both had a great time. The suite was beautiful and spacious (but also felt cozy!) and the bed was so comfortable. The pool was the perfect temperature and the service poolside was excellent. We ate at the Tower Bar and the food was delicious but the vibe was meh, maybe because there's clearly a section that's obviously for regular people and it's basically a hallway. Felt a little forced but that's LA. On the other hand, we loved breakfast each day and especially the amazing Barbara in the Terrace Room; she and the guys she works with will all make you feel like a VIP.

I love staying at the Sunset Tower. The rooms are fabulous 1940’s Art Deco Hollywood. With wonderful views and thoughtful amenities. The restaurant bar is luxurious with a fun city vibe overlooking the city. And the service at the hotel and restaurant is excellent. Highly recommend.
