Wonderful Location in a safe,...
Liked: I was in town for the Oscars but many of the fancy West Hollywood hotels were out of my price range. Although Le Parc is still very expensive, it is comparably excellent value for LA, and that is the metric by which I judged it. Compared to what other more expensive hotels had to offer, Le Parc seemed to be an excellent choice. I loved the pool, which I used every day, and the view is spectacular. I thought the suites were fantastic, adored my balcony and my dressing room, which was a bonus that really came in handy!Best of all was the location. I couldn't believe what a perfect location the hotel was in. Walk 3 mins down the road and you're in Melrose, a lovely place to walk around with gorgeous boutiques and swanky restaurants and coffee bars. There's a Wolf And Badger Store right at the bottom of the road, if that gives you an idea as to the kind of vibe.But if you walk 10 mins up the road you're in the heart of West Hollywood and close to all the nightlife and bars and fun. ALL THIS, and it is still one of the only hotels in the area which is situated in a gorgeous quiet residential street. I was a woman travelling alone and I felt comfortable walking back here late at night. It really felt very safe. I walked everywhere from this hotel, and the routes felt quiet and tranquil without traffic roaring past like so many other hotels in LA. I agonised about where to stay, but in the end I was so pleased I stayed here.
Disliked: I think the other reviews are spot on. The thing that bothered me the most was the incredibly prevalent nursing-home/hospital smell. This has got to be something to do with the cleaning products they are using, because I didn't opt for room cleaning the whole time I was there, and the smell in my room definitely improved as the days passed. But my god, I can still smell that smell over all my clothes and in my suitcase. Nothing undermines luxury quite like a weird odour. It didn't stop me from sleeping though.I would also agree with previous reviewers that the finishes on everything felt a bit worn and tired, especially in the elevators. I think if you were coming here expecting the height of luxury, you'd be disappointed, because it is a little worn round the edges, and has some slightly strange decor choices etc. However, my personal choice is that I'd rather have a hotel in an excellent location, with a nice pool and a really really generous sized room, that smells a bit odd and has a bit of wear and tear, than pay an extra $150 dollars per night for something oozing needless luxury.I hope that helps other travellers with their decisions.I for one, was thrilled with my hotel, loved the suite, adored the location, and would book again in a heartbeat, even if it's not super luxurious, it was the right hotel for me.
