"The hotel’s Scandinavian-style, hot-and-cold hydro spa — the first and only of its kind in the area — is a big selling point (that and the lack of a resort fee)."

"A party place built in 1958 and renovated in 2008, the Riviera attracts young, well-heeled, bikini-clad guests who hang out around the pool by day and the Bikini Bar by night."

"Following a thoughtful, extravagant renovation, this iconic hotel re-emerged with more Hollywood allure than when it originally opened in 1959."
