West Hollywood: Le Parc Suite Hotel
As far as roof deck pools go, this one is one of the more mellow swim sanctuaries (not as much of a Hollywood “scene” as some of the nearby hotels) making it a great place to unwind for a day with the kids. Snuggled in the middle of a quiet residential neighborhood just a block from the Sunset Strip, Le Parc day passes include access to their heated pool, food for purchase from their grab-n-go lobby market, complimentary wifi, and discounted self-parking. Its central location makes this hotel a perfect place to hang for the day before hitting up an event nearby.
