At first glance, we must admit, we were skeptical—the Luxe Hotel is quite possibly the only storefront on Rodeo Drive that doesn’t belong to a luxury goods brand or a designer boutique. It seems the height of folly to establish a hotel here, on the world’s most famous shopper’s drive, and given our general aversion to conventional luxury, we expected the Luxe (even just from the name!) to be arrogant, pretentious, and overpriced.
Imagine, then, our surprise at discovering that the Luxe Hotel Rodeo Drive is not only understated and contemporary in its design, but that is actually more affordable than its off-Rodeo competition, coming in at about half the price of the Beverly Wilshire. In fact a room at the Luxe will likely set you back less than the price of the cheapest trinket in one of the neighboring boutiques.
How they keep rates down is a mystery, as they’re not cutting any corners—you’ll find the linens are fine, the robes plush, the TV screens flat. If you’re on a shopping mission, then you can’t beat the location; there’s nowhere in the world with a more comprehensive selection of upscale shops. But business travelers are taken care of as well, with wi-fi and voice mail in every room.
The staff aren’t the most casual around, but don’t fear the Pretty Woman treatment; if you’re going to be ignored, it’ll be at the Fendi shop, not here. Even if you don’t have money to burn in the boutiques, the Luxe is worth considering—think of Rodeo Drive as a grown-up Disneyland, and enjoy a thoroughly surreal escape from reality.
