The Sofitel Los Angeles is back, after the sort of renovation that makes most hotel facelifts look like little more than a good spring cleaning. Gone is the faded South-of-France style that looked almost defiantly out-of-place at the edge of Beverly Hills; this 295-room hotel is now decidedly a city hotel, a bit Parisian even, from the mansard roof to the little French balconies to the crisp, urbane post-minimalist look of the interiors.
Rooms are simple, elegant, in creams and restrained colors, with plenty of space and plenty of comforts, from feather-top, duvet-covered beds to flat-panel HD televisions. Both bed and TV are visible from the bathroom, as is the current style, through a window — finally, though, one that goes from transparent to opaque at the flip of a switch, eliminating in one stroke the Middle American guest’s most common objection to exhibitionistic boutique hotel design.
Frankly, that’s the key, in an American hotel of any size; how to make it palatable to designophiles and designophobes at once, without making compromises that alienate both. The Sofitel Los Angeles is no stranger to cutting-edge urban chic — there’s a Rande Gerber bar and a Kerry Simon restaurant — but it goes easy on the beautiful-people velvet-rope pretentiousness. And certain matters — the spa, the fitness center, the pool — transcend considerations of style entirely.

What I liked:
location is perfect for playing and working in Beverly Hills and WeHo/Fairfax. A hop from LAX and all the shopping and dining you could need a stone's throw away. Level of service from porters, bar staff and concierge was great. Excellent, clean and modern gym as well as onsite spa are pluses.
What the hotel could do better:
The rooms themselves feel a bit old (furniture and furnishings are lacking). In-room content such as bar, coffee, packaged goods etc could use an upgrade.
