The Swank Guide is supported by you. Our recommendations are 100% unbiased; we choose what we think is best. We’ve partnered with Booking.com because that ensures we can get you the lowest price. In most cases, you also have ample time to cancel.
Our goal is to save you time by finding the best hotels and experiences for you, and eliminate the stress of paying for something before you understand if it’s right for you. We work with total editorial independence. That means nothing appears in our videos as a recommendation unless we’ve tried it and loved it. These are the hotels and activities we choose for ourselves and recommend to our family and friends.
We strive to be the most trusted, the most transparent, boutique hotel recommendation service…. ever. If you choose to use our link to book a hotel, you are supporting our work. You can go around us - it won’t save you any money. This hotel commission fee supports us as we travel the world looking for the best places. Running a business costs money, and this is how we cover most of our expenses.

Thanks for watching - I have a good team helping me!
I really enjoyed this video and thanks for the great work. I found your content because I am very interested in visiting Soho Warehouse LA. My girlfriend and I stayed at Soho House Amsterdam before the pandemic, and unfortunately we were jetlagged and asleep when the drinks cart came by our room! Now I need to research the Santa Monica Proper.

The SM Proper and Soho warehouse were probably my 2 favorite LA hotels. So you can’t go wrong. But if I had to pick I’d go w the SM Proper - I thought it was great. Enjoy LA!
Thanks for the insights! Love seeing Charlie Chaplin's canes'! Great info.

It's so good!
We're fomenting a late winter escape from the San Francisco area to Southern California (and, ultimately, the Grand Canyon). We'll be going down 101, hanging out in Solvang / Santa Barbara then making our way down to LA. Was following along with your hotel reviews, pausing to research each. What seems to come up often for even the "budget" hotels is $50 a night parking 🤔 as well as pretty high fees and taxes. The two prime contenders for the LA portion of our trip are: Hotel Figueroa, Downtown. Friend highly recommends. Hotel Normandie, Koreatown. Stayed there 10 years ago when it was freshly refurbished and LOVED IT. I also stayed at Maison 140, a boutique hotel in Beverly Hills, on business once. Might have to look at recent reviews for that.

Thanks for the comments and additional idea. re parking - agree it's expensive and Cali is notorious for taxes and fees. As you may have seen in our review of the Downtown LA proper we paid $20 for parking at the lot next door instead of $50 to the hotel - so there are hacks. Also - some hotels in LA have free parking - the Charlie, Surfrider are ones that come to mind but I'm sure there are others. have a fun trip HW 101 is magical.

If you're from San Francisco you'll probably be most at home in a cardboard box on the street?
i'm gonna visit all of them, one day :D

Hope so
These are all way beyond our budget. Maybe do some cheaper options

I will cover a few $100ish per night resorts in this series.. it's coming. I always try to look for affordable stylish places... but they are harder to find.
Have you stayed at La Peer in LA? If so what are your thoughts? I’m debating La Peer or Proper Santa Monica 🤔

Hi Christina... I'm sorry I have not... I'm checking w a friend in LA - who has great taste - to see if they know about it. I will let you know if I get any info back. La Peer is a Kimpton hotel - which I think are good - but the SM Proper is super unique. Good luck
