My wife and I lived in the Andaz Hotel Residences in NYC at 75 Wall Street for two years. We loved our building. Cool perks were being able to use the hotel amenities. Now when we travel if there is an Andaz Hotel in the area, we book it. The residences were awesome and the hotels even more so.
Andaz
Hotels do a smashing job at making their guests feel like they're at home. When you
return to the hotel after a long day out you can hit the fridge in the
lobby or in your room. All drinks (except for booze) and snacks like
pop chips, nuts, granola bars are complimentary. yep. No more paying $5 for a bottle of water from the mini bar or the same for a
snack.
Formerly called the Riot Hyatt from its hey day of being the hotel of choice for rock stars during the late
60's and 70's, this Sunset strip hotel is superb. The balconies overlooking the strip were notorious for some awesome rock and roll goings on back in the day... if you know what I mean.
The rooftop pool and sun deck are sweet and perfect for sun worshipers and those of you who like to do laps in the pool. We've stayed at the Andaz
West Hollywood several times now and the hotel hosts are super friendly
and they remember you. The lounge areas are ultra-chic and
comfortable. They have plenty of Rock and Roll nostalgia books lying around
to read and at 5pm when they start offering complimentary wine I always
enjoy grabbing a glass and kicking back on the Mezzanine level and
diving into rock nostalgia. The restaurant/bar so named RH (for Riot
Hyatt) offers a farm to table menu packed with ultra-modern, yet hearty cuisine and unique mixology type cocktails .
Andaz is in a great location in LA...close to West Hollywood, Beverly
Hills and just about a twenty minute drive, depending on traffic, to
Silver Lake and Los Feliz. The Comedy Store is right next door which is
always our last destination each night before we head to the room. The
Comedy Store has its own unique history and who knows you may see the
next Chris Rock performing in the Belly Room upstairs. RESERVE YOUR ROOM NOW
