During your Los Angeles vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Tail o' the Pup
At first glance, you might not think twice about this hot dog-shape bit of kitsch just across from the Beverly Center. But locals adored this closet-size wiener dispensary so much that when it was threatened by the developer's bulldozer, they spoke out en masse to save it. One of the last remaining examples of 1950s representational architecture, the "little dog that could" serves up an "only in L.A." experience to go with its great Baseball Special.
Museum of Tolerance
The Museum of Tolerance is designed to expose prejudices, bigotry, and inhumanity while teaching racial and cultural tolerance. Since its opening in 1993, it's hosted 3.5 million visitors from around the world, including King Hussein of Jordan and the Dalai Lama. It's located in the Simon Wiesenthal Center, an institute founded by the legendary Nazi-hunter. While the Holocaust figures prominently here, this is not just a Jewish museum -- it's an academy that broadly campaigns for a live-and-let-live world. Tolerance is an abstract idea that's hard to display, so most of this $50 million museum's exhibits are high-tech and conceptual in nature. Fast-paced interactive displays are designed to touch the heart as well as the mind, and engage everyone from heads of state to the MTV generation.
Pacific Design Center
The bold architecture and overwhelming scale of the Pacific Design Center, designed by Argentinean architect Cesar Pelli, aroused controversy when it was erected in 1975. Sheathed in gently curving cobalt-blue glass, the seven-story building houses more than 750,000 square feet of wholesale interior-design showrooms and is known to locals as "the blue whale." When the property for the design center was acquired in the 1970s, almost all of the small businesses that lined this stretch of Melrose Avenue were demolished. Only Hugo's Plating, which still stands in front of the center, successfully resisted the wrecking ball. In 1988, a second boxlike structure, dressed in equally dramatic Kelly green, was added to the design center and surrounded by a protected outdoor plaza.
Hotel Figueroa
With an artistic eye and a heartfelt commitment to budget travelers -- particularly from Europe and Japan -- owner Uno Thimansson has transformed a 1925-vintage former YWCA residence into L.A.'s best budget hotel. This enchanting 12-story property sits in an increasingly gentrified corner of Downtown, within shouting distance of the STAPLES Center and a block from the Original Pantry Cafe, the landmark 24-hour breakfast house.The big, airy lobby exudes a romantic Spanish Colonial-Gothic vibe with beamed ceilings and soaring columns, tile flooring, ceiling fans, Moroccan chandeliers, and medievalist furnishings such as big floor pillows made of Kurdish grain sacks, Persian kilims, and exotic fabrics draped from the ceiling. Elevators lead to equally artistic guest rooms that, though a bit dark and small, are very comfortable. Each comes with a firm, well-made bed with a wrought-iron headboard or canopy and a Georgia O'Keeffe-reminiscent spread, a Mexican-tiled bathroom, and Indian fabrics that double as blackout drapes. My favorite room is no. 1130, a large double-queen with a Spanish terra cotta-print chaise, but you can't go wrong with any room. The Casablanca Suite is a Moroccan pleasure den, ideal for romance. Out back you'll find a gorgeous desert-garden deck with a mosaic-tiled pool and Jacuzzi, and the Verandah Bar, the poolside place to go on warm Southern California nights for a minty mojito.
Elan Hotel Modern
Frou-frou name aside, this is one of L.A.'s best boutique-style hotels -- and one of the city's best values. Rebuilt from the bones of a 1969 retirement home, the ultramodern structure uses design elements from the original 1969 facade to set the stage for 21st-century style. Inside, a mod, loungey lobby leads to mid-20th-century-inspired guest rooms done in serene celadon and natural hues. The design merges form and function beautifully, resulting in amenity-laden and surprisingly luxurious accommodations, considering the price. The standard rooms aren't huge, but extrahigh ceilings and thoughtfully designed custom blond-wood furnishings create the luxury of space, while plush textured fabrics (mohair, chenille), beautifully made beds -- with cushioned headboards, goose-down comforters, 250-thread-count Egyptian cotton linens, and turndown service -- VCRs, and bathrooms with cotton robes and the thickest, plushest bath sheets in town elevate comforts well beyond the moderate price point. On the downside, there's no view and no pool, and this stretch of Beverly Boulevard isn't exactly the hippest strip in town. But double-paned glass ensures that even Beverly-facing rooms are quiet, and the location is central to everything (shoppers will love the walking-distance proximity to the Beverly Center).
Raffles L'Ermitage
If the Beverly Hills Hotel symbolizes Hollywood opulence as it once was, L'Ermitage epitomizes what it is today. Each enormous (around 700 sq. ft.), superbly decorated room is done in a contemporary Asian-meets-Scandinavian style that exudes understatement. The real treat is the in-room technology, which includes a CD/DVD player, Bose speakers, a three-line phone system with a whopping five phones throughout the room (including a cellphone you can take with you around town), and "smart" bedside control panels that remember your lighting and climate preferences. The work desk is large, seating is copious and comfortable, carpeting is Berber, fabrics tend to tailored silk, and lighting is soft and on dimmers. The bathrooms feature a soaking tub, a shower for two, and cotton and terry robes. The faultless service includes flexible check-in/check-out and a wealth of freebies that include local and 800 calls, all nonalcoholic beverages in your minibar, customized stationery and business cards with your name and direct-dial phone and fax numbers (very slick), and complimentary DVD lending. Room service is reasonable and carries no automatic service charges. The house restaurant, JAAN, serves modern French-Indochina cuisine in an uberstylish setting. You'll love the rooftop pool as well.Facilities: Jaan Restaurant w/outdoor patio; Living Room for afternoon tea and light meals; Writer's Bar; heated rooftop pool; Amrita spa and health club; 24-hr. concierge; courtesy car; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; laundry service; dry-cleaning service.
