The Pool at Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel

"Hidden away just a stone's throw from the Getty Center and busy I-405, this low-rise hotel is composed of two levels: The lobby and public areas -- plus some rooms -- are in the main building, while the most secluded guest rooms (and the Romanesque swimming pool) are uphill on the Garden level"

"Stretching out on a chaise by the Luxe's pool gives you a perfect view of the white travertine Getty Center just up the hill; the leafy hillside property is peaceful enough to make you forget that the hotel's actually just a stone's throw from the massive 405 Freeway"

"Popular for weddings and conventions, this 160-room luxury boutique hotel in Bel Air may be far removed from the action of Santa Monica and Hollywood, but it offers 522-square-foot standard rooms with free Wi-Fi and loads of extra amenities (tennis court, pool, spa, free business center) spread over an expansive seven-acre estate"

"A true urban retreat, the Luxe is situated on seven acres of lush grounds, replete with a heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, spa, on-site restaurant, lounge and generously proportioned guest rooms"

"Ideal for active Angelenos and visitors, the Luxe offers an outdoor heated pool, a tennis court and a fitness center"

"The pool is up the hill by the resort building and serves food and drinks for locals and guests"

"This is an excellent hotel, a posh yet unassuming place, but the din of near-constant traffic at the pool can be grating"
