Going to the Oscars? The Best L.A. Hotels for Every Hollywood Type | Vogue

"Yesterday, you were waiting tables between casting calls and now everyone suddenly wants a piece of you. And a selfie. It’s your first Academy Awards and your manager suggests you throw your own Oscars party at the hotel that’s at the very heart of it all–literally (it’s across the street from the Dolby theater) and spiritually (the first ever Oscars were held in the Hollywood Roosevelt’s ballroom in 1929). The magnificent rooftop offers sweeping views of the city under the iconic red neon sign, while the pool downstairs, framed by tall palm trees, must be the exact mental image of anyone dreaming of classic Hollywood. You can’t go wrong." - Max Maeckler
