Character and identity
Tucked into a quiet residential pocket of West Hollywood, Petit Ermitage is an 80-suite bohemian hideaway carved out of a former apartment building, where walls carry pieces from the owner's personal collection (Miro, de Kooning, Rauschenberg, Dalí) and hand-woven Turkish rugs soften the floors. Suites come with wet bars, kitchenettes or separate living rooms, most with working fireplaces. The rooftop is the heart of the place: a heated saltwater pool, a leafy garden certified as a hummingbird and butterfly sanctuary, and the jewel-toned Butterfly Bar pouring farmer's-market cocktails. The register is eclectic, art-filled, and deliberately unscene-y.
Who's it for
Best for:
Creative and design-minded couples who want a West Hollywood base without the velvet-rope energy of the Strip. Ideal for travellers who value art, fireplaces, a strong rooftop, and a residential-feeling suite they can actually settle into for several nights, plus extras like morning yoga and in-suite spa treatments.
Should look elsewhere:
Families wanting a kids' club, business travellers needing polished corporate infrastructure, or anyone after a sleek modern design hotel will find the eclectic, antique-laden aesthetic too quirky. There's no beach, no headline restaurant, and the residential setting means you'll taxi to most nightlife.
Bottom line
What sets this place apart is the rooftop and the art-stuffed, apartment-style suites, a genuine "hidden gem" feel rather than a Hollywood production. Book a Junior Suite for the walk-out balcony and hills view, request a fireplace room, and time a stay around shoulder-season rates when the rooftop is still usable but the city is quieter.
