As the world’s first Viceroy hotel, the Santa Monica location has raised American standards for large-scale boutique hotels. Decorated by Los Angeles designer Kelly Wearstler in her much copied contemporary, whimsical Hollywood high-style, the hotel feels at once sophisticated, charming, and utterly relaxed. The guest rooms, featuring custom designed mirrored headboards, offer expansive views unmatched in the area. Don’t miss happy hour at Cameo Bar, when the beach crowd moves indoors from Santa Monica’s sandy shores to enjoy signature cocktails in this charming watering hole.
