We arrived late at night from London and were slightly nervous at having to find our way to a private address and let ourselves in. We needn't have been as the advance info and directions provided by Samantha were excellent and complete.

Although we had high expectations based on previous TA reviews we were truly impressed by the style and marvellous quality of the Art Deco suite. We wanted two sleeping areas and the suite was ideal for this with a super king in the bedroom at the front of the suite and extremely comfortable 'lit du jour' in the study at the rear of the suite. In between were a dining/sitting room and a fully equipped kitchen with sit-up bar, dishwasher, gas hob and refrigerator. The study has a full working desk and the provision of free wireless internet was a great benefit. The furniture and fittings throughout the suite are of 'Restoration Hardware' quality and we found it a perfect home from home.

The location is really excellent - a minute or two off the Hollywood Freeway, one block from Sunset and Hollywood Blvds, 5 minutes drive to the wonderful restaurants, bars & cafes of Vermont Avenue; 20 minutes to Beverly Hills and 15 minutes from West Hollywood in one direction and downtown in the other.

A bottle of excellent cabernet and fresh cheese awaited us on arrival - a perfect and much appreciated gift after an 11 hour flight from London! Our only disappointment was that we could only stay two nights! I hope to get back in January for a ten night stay.

My husband, grandson and myself stayed here at the end of August for my grandson's 13th birthday. We arrived a little early and met Samantha outside. She was a pleasure and told us there was no problem for us to go on up and leave our luggage and park. We had booked the Parisian Suite and we were so happy. The layout and decor were just beautiful. We had planned on going out that night but loved the suite so much, we ordered in and stayed in the suite and played games and watched movies. What a wonderful place to come back to after Universal Studios and Hollywood! Wait until you get into the beds...heaven on earth. We had a very special time and will be back as many times as possible(we really wanted to move in!)

We want to say thanks to Brogan/Samantha for the lovely accomodations. We stayed seven nights all total, one night in the bungalow and six nights in the english suite. The bungalow worked out just fine for the five of us as it was just for one night, but would have been cramped if we had stayed for the entire duration. (I loved the bugalow very private and peaceful)
The English suite was beautiful it was like being in our own home but better. We were able to cook when we wanted everything that you needed to run a home, away from home was supplied. We came and went as we pleased, far better then anything that you would find in a hotel or condo. Absolutely wonderful!
(In saying this I would mention that there are parts of the area that you may want to be careful in.) However we were not with small children we had 17,19, & 21 year old with us. We found the location to be ideal in that it was within walking distance to alot of Hollywood and there was easy access to main highways less then two minutes away.

My family stayed at the Villa Delle Stelle this summer based on Trip Advisor's rave reviews and the hotel's moderate prices. We were only permitted to stay in the detached bungalow since we were traveling with a toddler. The other suites look to be much nicer but have an adults only policy.

While the Bungalow had some positive features (i.e. a comfortable bed, a flat screened TV, and a nice, well stocked kitchen), it is in need of some renovation - particularly the bathroom with its tiny sink and mildewy shower curtain. Also, the hotel's website highlighted the bungalow's enclosed backyard patio and bbq. In reality, the patio was uninviting because the wrought iron furniture was completely rusted over.

The biggest problem, however, was the noise. On two consecutive nights there was an extremely loud party going on in a home directly behind the bungalow. On one night, the party lasted from about 2 am - 7am. In Villa Dell Stelle's defense, we were told this was first time they heard of such a complaint from a hotel guest.

If you plan on staying in this hotel, my advise is to avoid the bungalow. Stay elsewhere if traveling with young children.
