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.

This a perfect for small families and couples. We stayed in the English Suite", a one bedroom with kitchen, dining room and living room. The entire place is very well done. You wish your house looked like this. Parking is a pain . Do not rent a big car! I rented a PT and it was fine.

We also spent two nights in the little cottage behind the main house. It also was nice but somewhat tight for four. The neighborhood has everything you need and then some. There is a Starbuck's, drug store, Thai, Chinese, Mexican food right down the block. All the food was average. Also near by is Roscoe's Famous Fried Chicken- I am not sure it is the greatest fried chicken in the world but it was awfully good and you do see alot of pro atheletes . We also had dinner with friends at Eat on Sunset-it was good food, slow service and a weird interior courtyard. The best place we found was Off-Vine which is about a 15 minute walk. Very good food and a pretty romantic setting.

Brogan and Samantha are a fountain of knowledge and can steer you in the right direction on LA subjects- if only they served a big breakfast!
