Boek dit als You want the most Instagrammable, eco-chic basecamp on the Sunset Strip and don't mind sacrificing a little quiet for a lot of vibe.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Stunning skyline views from floor-to-ceiling windows
- The 'Kindling' signature scent that smells like a wealthy campfire
- Incredible location on the Sunset Strip that is actually walkable
Snel Overzicht: A beautiful, sustainable sanctuary that feels more like a high-end West Elm catalog than a traditional luxury hotel, with a pool scene that gets loud.
Beoordeeld door @beautyandthebumpnyc: I stayed in this eco-chic sanctuary right on Sunset and the design is stunning. The mix of raw concrete and warm wood feels so grounding. Plus, the sustainable touches like the filtered water tap and organic toiletries made the luxury feel guilt-free.

Reality check
You are paying for the aesthetic and the address, not white-glove Four Seasons service.
- You care about sustainability (no single-use plastics, reclaimed wood everywhere)
- You travel with pets (extremely pet-friendly with no fees)
- You want a 'scene' right downstairs but a zen room to crash in
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
9
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reports of missed restocking (cotton pads, toilet paper).
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless marble and grout, though water pressure can vary.
- Maintenance: Most things work, but some 'rustic' fixtures (handles, faucets) can feel flimsy or loose.
- Linens & towels: Organic cotton linens are soft and high-quality; towels are fluffy.
- Odors & scents: Dominant scent is the signature 'Kindling' (woodsy/musky)—very pleasant, no mustiness.

Tips van Insiders

Guests get a discount (usually 20%) at FaceGym—ask the concierge to book it.

If Harriet's is too packed or expensive, the lobby lounge 'Juniper' has a great vibe and better seating.

The 'imperfect' fruit at the lobby farmstand is free and delicious—grab a snack before heading out.
