Harriet’s Rooftop at 1 Hotel West Hollywood

This pepper tree filled alfresco rooftop lounge atop Sunset Blvd, is the perfect spot for a nightcap from the bar or a table. With sweeping views of the city all the way to downtown and the hills, it might take you away from staring into your date’s eyes, so toast to “Purple Flowers” with Virginia Black Whiskey and red wine before you drift off.

Olivetta

The sexy Mediterranean meets West Hollywood flare of the interiors span over four distinct areas from an enclosed front patio and small cozy bar to a main lounge.

The three hour and 45-minute Ritual Immersion tranquility package at this ultra-opulent day spa includes a Moroccan bath and a clarity complexion treatment. Or, head in for shorter burst of pampering by booking a nail buff and a foot scrub. Ole Henriksen Spa uses premium signature products and essential oils.
