Petit Ermitage

Hotel was wonderful and very comfortable. Service staff was not as prompt and helpful as I would have hoped for. Bed was fairly hard, but slept well enough, no complaints. Requested an iron to get my coat and slacks ready for show later in the evening, that never came and I ended up having a major crease in my collar all night.. but other than that our stay was an enjoyable one.

Staff kept to to themselves a little too much.

This is a lovely hotel. Booked my sister from the east coast there a few weeks in advance since I live in the neighborhood and want to support West Hollywood businesses. 3 days before, I went by to re-confirm the reservation. Everything checked-out. Assumed there would be a room on the 4th floor. When checking-in 4 days later, the front desk seemed confused, didn't have the 'actual room' on the computer. They called for a security guard to 'show' a few of the rooms. He wasn't available. Waited while others easily checked-in. It took almost 30 minutes to get the actual room. Others with reservations came in, checked-in quickly. Also, the requested 7 a.m. wake-up call never came two days later! Well-appointed, but inefficient front-desk service.

Overall the Hotel stay was excellent! Room was clean and comfortable. included a fireplace with many ammenties. Staff was extremely Nice, I always seen the manager walking around, greeting customers and making sure things were taken care of. Pool area is amazing very intimate with candle light, bar and view of LA, oh fireplace too! My only complaint was the parking $30 a night! But you have to park there, The residential street requires a parking permit all the way around the block. Its not included.

Really nice boutique hotel with great atmosphere, very convenient to many Hollywood/LA attractions. My wife was attending a class at Cedar Sinai and it was within walking distance, as were many restaurants and bars. The rooftop bar/restaurant pool was great, with views of the Hollywood hills and very friendly staff. Only negatives were the prices at the restaurant bar (very high) and the parking price ($30/day!). Ouch.

i rarely deliberately stay at the same hotel twice but le petit is such an exceptional hotel that i'd struggle to think of staying anywhere else in LA. have stayed there 3 times in last 6 months and the only downside is that the hotel has (to my knowledge) no fitness center. the basics: on-site valet parking for reasonable rates. great location. no on-site fitness or gym. free wireless for guests. excellent rooftop bar with decent snack and finger-food. top notch staff. outstanding interior design. what's exceptional about it? the attention to detail that goes into le petit makes it truly outstanding; everything about the hotel, room and rooftop design will leave you that bit happier with your stay. especially the rooftop -- it's the picture of serenity and is an amazing escape. can't speak highly enough of the hotel or its staff. a bargain for anything under $250 a night.

The rooms and decor in the hotel were very good, as was the location. However it was very noisy and a bit of a party spot with the locals continuing into the early hours of the morning. The staff were very unorganised especially in the rooftop restaurant and a bit of a slap together breakfast buffet with very poor service. I would not stay here again.

The rooftop pool deck is amazing! The staff wasn't particularly friendly, but it is LA after all... The room size and comfort was excellent. The only parking was valet which was $30 a day, which was quite excessive! Their website advertises that they have local gym privileges for working out, but when we checked in, they said that was no longer offered. We chose the 'breakfast included' hotel package which is a good deal, but I wouldn't recommend it. The food was very good, but it was EXACTLY the same breakfast EVERY morning. By the 4th and 5th days, we went elsewhere for breakfast because we wanted something different, so you would be better off just paying the $15 per person per day for the breakfast buffet on the days that you dine there. Overall though...for the price, uniqueness and location I would definitely stay there again.

This hotel was really as different as it strives to be. With art in the hallways and bi-level rooms the spaces we encountered were interesting and unexpected. The pool and "chill-out" zone on the roof of the building was an especially rewarding place with sofas, beds, and even a fireplace! The location near Santa Monica Blvd made it very easy to get to the museums and other attractions in the area. Since the Hotel is in a residential area, a quick walk down/up the street will take you to some good places to eat. If you want to have an experience that is quieter and different than the normal big hotels- this is the place to try. The biggest negative about Le Petit is the valet parking fee. At $30 a night, this added expense (not included in the hotel rate) is really a groaner. Be certain to call ahead from your room to have the attendant (usually just one guy) get your vehicle.

Good location and nice pool with view of Hollywood Hills and Sunset Blvd, but be careful what room you get. Mine was on the 3rd floor overlooking an alley and shanty-style house and sketchy motel/apartment bldg. Also the sliding door didn't lock. The room was not my style, very old world/European, but it had all the amenities. The staff was nice and lounging at the pool was very relaxing. No fitness center, which made it a no-go for me to stay again.
