Where to stay: Modern & Boutique Hotels in Los Angeles, California
If your shortlist leans sleek over storied, you want a modern address near the Hollywood sights. Newer boutique spots trade on skyline views, rooftop scenes, and quick access to studios and the Walk of Fame. I field the same asks every week about which properties work for a car-light visit and which feel purpose built for quick work trips.
This hub gathers our coverage of contemporary stays in the neighborhood. Each article below answers a different version of that question at the front desk: a hotel built around its rooftop calling card, a business-forward pitch at the Kimpton Everly, or a perch directly above the Chinese Theatre. Pick what matches your plans and step into the focused guide that covers it.

- The Kimpton Everly's Pitch to Business Travelers: What to expect from a hotel framing itself for business travelers, by name and intent.
