Hot Hollywood Hotels: The Roosevelt

61

The Roosevelt Hollywood

Do you have any idea how many women Clark Gable nailed here?  Neither do I.  But I do know they named the penthouse suite after him.  

The Roosevelt was refurbished in 2005 and has since attracted a young and exclusive Hollywood crowd.  Situated at 7000 Hollywood Blvd., this hotel is in the thick of it.  Walk out the front door and you're on the Walk of Fame.  Continue to see the Grauman's Chinese Theatre and all the crazy bums who hang out there dressed like super heroes.  Whether you're looking for clubs, bars, shopping or live entertainment, this hotel is within walking distance of it all. 

The spot: Tropicana Bar.  Located at the hotel, this poolside lounge offers live dj's, great celebrity sightings and enough eye candy to make your stomach hurt.  The atmosphere doesn't come cheap though.  It's not uncommon to pay $8 for a can of beer(no glass allowed by the pool) or $10 for a mixed drink.  If you're over 30 you'd probably want to get a cabana table and show those young gold diggers where to mine.

The restaurant:  Teddy's.  An upscale fine dining experience.  There is also 25 Degrees.  A high class burger and wine joint.  I didn't know you could spend $15 on a burger, but damn they're tasty. 

T&A Rating: 10.  The Roosevelt has it all.  If you go during the summertime I guarantee it won't disappoint.

Sweet! I was looking for a hotel in Hollywood for next week. I checked out a few reviews, but this is the only one with a T&A rating. I think you're on to something!
