“The vibe here is strong, and extends from the design-conscious rooms to the remarkable rooftop pool. Montana Avenue's dining and shopping are nearby, though the hotel's own Italian and Californian restaurants-and attentive staff-make a compelling case to stay put; the Ayurvedic spa offers another layer of indulgence. In my opinion, it's a relaxing urban escape with a focus on wellness.”
