"Walking across Hotel Bel-Air’s cobblestone bridge feels like being transported to an Italian countryside estate. But it's somehow located in a Bel-Air canyon ten minutes from the 405. A night here is not cheap, so we just like to camp out at the bar and pretend we’re staying all week. The Art Deco space opens daily at 3 pm and features comfy sitting areas, a roaring fireplace (even in the summer), and the opportunity to feel as wealthy as you decide you are in your head." - brant cox
