Fashioned from an early-1900s estate, this romantic landmark and longtime celebrity magnet—everyone from Rita Hayworth to Arnold Schwarzenegger has lodged here—is tucked within a residential neighborhood, yet located just one block from the city’s heart. Luxurious suites and villas, which combine period décor with modern amenities, feature steam baths, whirlpool tubs, fireplaces, refrigerators, and private terraces. On-site dining and entertainment are provided by the award-winning Melvyn’s Restaurant, specializing in continental cuisine, and the Casablanca Room, an intimate piano bar. Mountain hiking is available just outside the door and a short drive away in the majestic Indian Canyons.
