Hotel Ziggy - West Hollywood

With a mission to bring rock and roll back to Hollywood’s Sunset Strip, Hotel Ziggy is a cool, music-centric hangout, named after David Bowie’s famed alter ago. Highlights of this petite hotel include the Shred Shed, offering music equipment to hire during your stay, Backbeat, the hotel’s own live venue, and West Hollywood’s only saltwater pool, tucked away in the colourful courtyard.

Perched on West Hollywood’s (WeHo) Sunset Strip, known for its comedy clubs and live music venues, the hotel is in great company. Iconic venues including Whisky a Go Go and The Viper Room are less than a mile away; and celebrity hangout, Chateau Marmont, sits within half a mile. Meanwhile, the Comedy Store is mere steps from the hotel. Los Angeles International Airport is 16 miles south.

Design here is industrial-meets-mid-century – think cool rockstar hideout. The hotel’s grey exterior is punctuated with psychedelic murals both outside and in the pool courtyard. Inside, music memorabilia from instruments to tour posters lines the lobby. Standard Rooms have an almost 70s feel, but swap the deep autumn tones for light walls and bright white bedsheets. Pool View rooms in the same style, overlook the pool courtyard, while ground floor Swim Up rooms open onto the courtyard pool deck. For updated decor with a custom mural, opt for a Sunset Strip King room, or choose a Studio Loft for a spacious sitting area, a big bathroom with double sinks and Sunset Strip Views.
