For those seeking luxury and exclusivity in Los Angeles, The Hollywood Roosevelt offers an opulent oasis in the heart of Hollywood. This Los Angeles Historical Cultural Monument and Historic Hotel of America has long been known as the epicenter for industry elites with its evocations of the glamour and prestige of golden-age Hollywood. You might recognize the hotel’s famous marquee sign from movies like Almost Famous (2000) and Catch Me If You Can (2002).
The Hollywood Roosevelt’s rooms offer stunning views of the Hollywood Hills, with a range of real estate from retro poolside cabana rooms and chic tower rooms to the newly redesigned penthouses—The Gable and Lombard Penthouse and The Johnny Grant Apartment. Guests can swim in a million-dollar work of art by acclaimed painter David Hockney in the Tropicana Pool or indulge in one of the hotel’s myriad of dining options, from the trendy Rosy Café by the poolside to the vibrant dining experience at Shirley Brasserie, and renowned spots like The Spare Room, the Library Bar, and the recently revived Cinegrill Theater.
Newly Redesigned Penthouse Suites
This month, the Hollywood Roosevelt recently unveiled the transformation of its two penthouse suites, The Gable and Lombard Penthouse and The Johnny Grant Apartment, headed by Los Angeles-based designer Kevin Klein. Each penthouse sprawls across over 2,000 square feet, with rich Italian marbles, dark stained walnut and oak wall panels, and hand-painted ceiling murals. Furniture and décor were sourced from over 25 countries, with pieces dating back over 200 years.
