Hotel Sofitel in Beverly Hills and Redwood City.
We used to travel a lot to Beverly Hills. A few years ago, we were there almost every weekend for about a year. We found a favorite place to stay. Hotel Sofitel is a French Hotel Chain and they have one of their hotels located on the border of Beverly Hills/Westwood. The hotel is located directly across the street from the Beverly Center, which is a massive mall in the area.
I love Hotel Sofitel. I love the rooms, and I love their food. The breakfasts have a French flair to them, and it doesn’t hurt that you can order croissants just like they sell in France. Yummy! They have a very nice breakfast room, and you also have the choice of eating on the patio under the umbrellas. I highly recommend this hotel.
The prices were very reasonable. We used to pay approximately $150 a night. They also have a sister hotel in the Bay Area, which is a bargain. We usually pay $99 per night there. It is located on a lake, about 10 miles south of the San Francisco International Airport. It is a lovely hotel as well and you can also find those yummy croissants there.
This place is the best bargain in the Bay Area. If you need a little exercise take a run around the lake that is just outside the door. There is also a small pool that no one ever uses that is kept warm all year. If you enjoy this sort of thing as I do, you can drip in your bathrobe as you walk across the fancy lobby and hop into the elevator when you are done.
Elitists!
