    Experience L Horizon

    Palm Springs has classically been known as a desert haven where Los Angeles elite escape for mini vacations filled with fine dining, shopping and most importantly, relaxation. The L’Horizon Hotel and Spa has maintained the city’s prestige through hosting guests for a private, luxury experience with their intimate bungalows and indulgent spa treatments. Guests step into a world of exemplary accommodations at this lavish boutique hotel.

    The Horizon

    Built as “The Horizon” in 1952 by William F. Cody, an architect that helped shape the iconic mid-century modern architecture of Palm Springs, the hotel quickly became a celebrity hot spot. During the 1950s and ‘60s, it drew Hollywood elite like Marilyn Monroe, Betty Grable, producer Jack Wrather and a number of US Presidents to come experience the sprawling, three-acre desert sanctuary.




    In the Heart of the Desert

    Los Angeles designer Steve Hermann was brought in to revitalize the property in 2015 while still keeping its mid-century character intact. The original style of the hotel is now combined with modern and vintage furniture to create a nostalgic yet contemporary space for a whole new generation of trendsetters. Hermann’s addition of an open-air spa and alfresco restaurant SoPa added even more to the attractive vacation spot. The welcoming interior creates an air of residential luxury leaving guests to feel right at home in the heart of the desert.




    The Bungalows

    The 25 bungalows throughout the property are designed with handpicked decor and custom finishes to create an intimate space filled with comfort. Entering into their bungalow guests will never have to remember a room number, as each domain is personalized with a gold, etched name plate. Exposed wood, marble accents, and stone walls bring natural touches to the room against its mountainous desert backdrop. The indoor-outdoor feel is enhanced by glass doors that provide plenty of natural light for a tranquil stay. Guests can also lounge on their own private outdoor patio or reach the ultimate relaxation with an outdoor shower using lush Le Labo bath products.

    The Residence

    One of the most impressive aspects of L’Horizon is its signature presidential suite The Residence–a secluded oasis formerly home to Hollywood entrepreneur Jack Wrather. The more than 3000-square-foot habitat comes with a private, full-sized pool and yard. Unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape deliver eye-catching views of the natural, mountain terrain. The Residence can be booked as a one-bedroom accommodation or upgraded to the full two-bedroom home, both options leaving guests to enjoy a wood-burning fireplace, wet bar and luxury amenities.

    Peaceful Ambiance

    Outside of lounging in the spacious bungalow rooms, the hotel boasts an inviting indoor-outdoor Spa for pampering guests in a peaceful setting. From massages to facials to aromatherapy, relaxation is guaranteed with services customized to fit each guest’s desires. Other activities like private personal training, yoga classes and guided hikes add an element of fitness perfect for any guest wishing to stay active during their getaway. The onsite restaurant SoPa is also a welcoming draw, with a refined dining experience in an intimate atmosphere. The garden-esque outdoor seating creates an enchanting setting where a flavorful, local menu of European and Californian dishes please the palate thanks to Michelin-star Chef Giacomo Pettinari.

    The Location

    Aside from the number of amenities throughout the property, L’Horizon is also located within minutes of Palm Springs’ bustling downtown. Restaurants, nightlife and shopping are some of the main attractions for visitors taking advantage of the city’s offerings. The area is also home to multiple casinos, museums and design studios creating a unique landscape for exploring the classic destination.

        Photo: MELROSEPLACE – Restaurant & Rooftop Lounge

         

        Experience MELROSEPLACE

        One of Los Angeles’ most famous streets is the iconic Melrose Place, known to most outside of the city from its namesake ‘90s TV show. Local Angelenos are fans of the block thanks to its jewelry stores, coffee shops and designer boutiques that include international names like Balmain, Marni and Oscar de la Renta. There will soon be a new dining addition to the luxurious strip with the opening of MELROSEPLACE Restaurant and Rooftop.




        The Location

        This new, 8,000 square foot addition to West Hollywood is located just off of La Cienega Boulevard in an area already bustling due to the variety of dining and nightlife destinations nearby. MELROSEPLACE will be taking over the former home of The Allbright, a private, women’s club that closed during the pandemic. MELROSEPLACE plans to take inspiration from the previous brand in making the new venue an all-in-one destination for leisure.




        melroseplace rooftop outdoor drone shot

        Photo: MELROSEPLACE LA

        The Venue

        The three-story building will have a different feel to each floor, offering a bevy of in-house services and experiences. The ground floor is reserved for shops and businesses, with MELROSEPLACE Nail Salon opening first to provide premium nail art services. Additional stores and casual dining options will also soon be added to the lineup of street level destinations.

        The second floor will provide multiple environments for guests to dine throughout the day. A cafe will be opening as a daytime hangout for coffee and bites. The MELROSEPLACE restaurant will be the crown jewel of the building, with light and luxurious furnishings bringing in a distinctly coastal feel. Both indoor and patio seating will be available for guests to enjoy the alluring menu of California-inspired dishes. Alongside dinner will be a thoughtful cocktail program by the talents of Umbrella Hospitality Group, with creative beverages to complement the food menu or to enjoy at the venue’s bar seating.

        Plans for a lively rooftop lounge are in the works for the third level, joining the ranks of nearby rooftop destinations like Harriet’s Rooftop, Skybar and E.P. & L.P. The rooftop bar is expecting to make its debut just in time for guests to take in the sunshine during Summer 2022.

        The minds behind MELROSEPLACE are Sunset Collective, a group with an impressive combined history in entrepreneurship, Los Angeles nightlife and hospitality. Costas Charalambous, Shyon Keoppel, and Stafford Schlitt came together to breathe new life into Los Angeles’ post-quarantine hospitality landscape. Charalambous is known in the industry as one of the founding members of SBE, a Los Angeles hospitality company where he also served as president. MELROSEPLACE will join Sunset Collective’s growing roster of venues which also includes the ultra-exclusive lounge Offsunset.
