Back to Mondrian Los Angeles LOOKS, SERVICE, VERY HIP WITHOUT GOING OVER THE TOP..EXCELLENT. THE OVER ALL EXPERIENCE WAS JUST AWESOME.. ONCE WE ARRIVED AND CHECKED IN..WITHOUTH HAVING TO SHOW OUR ID OR ROOM KEY, THE STAFF KNEW OUR LAST NAMES! THE INFINITY POOL WAS LOOKED YUMMY, THE BED, PILLOWS AND THE CANDLES GAVE IT A NICE TOUCH AND THE DRINKS AND DESSERTS ARE YUUUMMMY. YES, THE PRICE IS A LITTLE UP THERE, BUT IT'S WORTH IT IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT EVERY WEEKEND. I LOVED OUR ROOM OVER LOOKING THE WHOLE PARTY/POOL AND SKYBAR. EXCELLENT!
Reviewed by: KP from on Sep 24 2007 Tries too hard The management should spend less time trying to be hip (and it's obvious they're trying)and spend more time on the details--like fixing the broken sofa bed, providing linens for the sofa bed, removing the stains on the carpet, providing a comfortable bed and re-doing the bathrooms, especially the shower (which seemed to be taken from a Motel 6). The room was large, however.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Sep 14 2007 Save your money and stay at Motel 6 The lobby is cool and they're all about style, but the rooms are awful. They need serious updating. The carpets were stained with who knows what. I've been in Motel 6 rooms that are nicer than this. They also charged for mini-bar items not used - I hope they use the money they stole from me to update a room!
Reviewed by: kyfan from on Apr 27 2007 Lovely Sky Bar I spend every now and then time in Mondrian's Sky Bar with my friends, and I just love the atmosphere there. It is a laid-back place and really one of the nicest sky bars where I been to. Try it out!
Reviewed by: Joseph from on Oct 24 2005 decent drinks...but serious l.a. scene the mondrian sky bar has great drinks, but is really high on the l.a. cheese factor in regards to the overall feel. if you are into wanna-be/trendy, this place is for you. the pool did look nice though.. :)
Reviewed by: Michael from on Oct 19 2005 The best in the area The area where the hotel is located is very convenient to most of the hot spots in Los Angeles including the famous House of Blues which is located right across from the hotel.

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Sep 01 2005 Over-rated I only stayed at the Mondrian for 1 night, and I thought it was over-rated. The suite I got was nice, but extremely small compared to most suites I am used to. Needless to say, I was a bit disappointed that I spent over $300 for it. I was over-looking Sunset Blvd. though, so that was an upside.
Reviewed by: Amy from on Jun 17 2005 Nothing extraordinary Maybe boutique hotels are not my thing because I was more impressed with the Hyatt across the street or Best Western a few doors down. The first impression is favorable --- the tranquil, zen effect is certainly "felt"; however, if you soend any amount of time in the lobby or your hotel room there is nothing that represents quality. Nearly every piece of furniture is covered over by a white slipcover --- that you may note having ground-in stains. Nothing is overwhelmingly comfortable and the hotel lacks any warm.
