Andaz West Hollywood

The Andaz West Hollywood sits on the Sunset Strip with great city views, especially from the rooftop pool.  The Chateau Marmont is also a stones throw from the hotel.

 As you enter the hotel, there is no formal registration desk.  There are “hosts” that assist you with the check-in process.  Guests are invited to sit on sofas throughout the check-in process.  Guests are also offered a glass of wine, water or other beverage.

During this stay, I decided to use a Suite Upgrade, which Diamond members receive four throughout the year.  Normally, a Diamond member will be upgraded to the smallest or lowest level suite, but can be upgraded further at the hotels discretion.  As you may expect, some hotels are more generous than others with upgrades.

I was given an Andaz Suite King on the 9^th floor.  As you enter, the room opens up into a large open space.  There is a large glass table with four barstools with a large window that overlooks the city.

 To the left is a large leather couch with a large desk.  There is also a flat screen TV that welcomes you to the Andaz.  They even personalize the greeting on the TV, a very nice and memorable touch.

Hallway to Guest Bathroom

The balcony has been enclosed and converted into a small sitting area with two chairs and ottomans, and a small TV that overlooks the city.  With the great city views, why would someone want to watch TV?

The room has two full bathrooms.  The “guest” bathroom is slightly larger than the one in the bathroom.  There is a large counter, which is always appreciated when on the road.  The shower is spacious, however there is only a small hand held shower head that does not put out much water pressure.  There is only a semi-enclosed shower door so water will undoubtedly splash onto the floor.

The bedroom is fairly large with a closet holding two robes and pairs of slippers, iron and ironing board.  There is a small sitting area in the bedroom.  The bed is on the softer side with large super soft pillows.  Although the bed is on the softer side, it is not uncomfortably so.  There is a large dresser and flat screen TV to round out the room.

The master bathroom is slightly smaller than the guest bathroom with almost no counter space.  Like the guest bathroom, there is a fairly large shower with hand held shower head with less than desirable water pressure.  The same semi-enclosed shower door is also in the master bathroom.  There are Lather bath products, which are a very welcome change compared to the standard Portico products.
