Have a late-day meeting or event? Why not explore Hollywood in the AM? Start your day with coffee or breakfast at the Tropicana Bar located at The Hollywood Roosevelt. After your pick-me-up, take the stairs up through the lobby to admire the hotel’s restored hand-painted ceilings and historic fixtures. Exit to Hollywood Boulevard to stroll along the Hollywood Walk of Fame, past The Dolby Theatre, where the Academy Awards are held every year. Then, stop into Madame Tussaud’s for a close-up with hundreds of Hollywood icons. Lastly, head over to W Hollywood to relax in their living room, where luxury meets comfort in a chic, lively setting.
