Hotel Review: Petit Ermitage Los Angeles
November 04, 2014
As I settle back into my reality of work and grey skies, I am
still on a high after some much needed vitamin D and time out in LA. Being my home away from home after living there for 2 years, I always love going
back to visit friends but also because there isn't a place like it.
During this trip, my friend and I decided to stay at the Petit Ermitage, an eccentric hidden boutique hotel in West Hollywood. The thing about
LA hotels is that though they can offer utter luxury and glamour, they can also
be impersonal, busy and full of the wrong crowd.
As many of the popular hotels are tourist attractions in
their own right, I love the fact that Petit Ermitage has a different flair with its classy yet whimsical gypsy theme.

Dining- Breakfast
LA has some of the best restaurants in the world in my opinion so we tended to eat out more than dine at the hotel. However, we made it a daily routine to have our breakfast every morning in the outdoor restaurant. The staff were always friendly and helpful and we would happily sit outside in our robes and enjoy fresh fruit, juice, bread and muffins. You could either choose to have a continental buffet breakfast or swerve to the odd American temptation consisting of waffles and maple syrup, crispy bacon and butter cream oatmeal. Yes I now have to go on a serious diet.
Service
The service at this hotel was wonderful especially with the
management team (thanks Alex). Whether you needed a taxi, restaurant
reservations, printing out a document or decaf coffee ( yes in America) they
were only happy to oblige. Part of the
reason I enjoyed my stay was the way the staff were so friendly and accommodating.
Overall, I really enjoyed my time and I would definitely stay at this hotel again. The only thing I would change is maybe having a shower room or hotel
room checked out guests can use. We had
an evening flight so I would have loved to have freshened up and changed in a
private room than a toilet. Apart from that I would highly recommend this
quirky, unique luxurious and fun boutique hotel. Five stars from me!
