- Hotel Bel Air (after renovation). They killed everything that made that place special.
Boy howdy! Used to be our preferred in LA. Went for drinks post renovation and suffered extreme case of hives (allergic reaction). So unfortunate. If ever an hotel was at odds with its setting ...

Hualalai is great in theory but ruined by success. Never again for us. But I don't think the owners mind as they bank their bucks.
