There were so many amazing things that happened on my trip to California for the Oz the Great and Powerful World Premier that I almost forgot to tell you about the amazing, beautiful, elegant and classy hotel that we stayed in.
It is a hotel you have heard of if you watched The Bachelorette get married last year. Ashley and J.P. tied the knot in the very hotel we stayed. We even got to see the ballroom where the reception was help!
The Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena, California is simply exquisite. Elegance drips from the halls and sophistication and style mold themselves to every crevice as no detail is overlooked in the rooms or in the common areas.
Entering the hotel you are immediately a special guest. The staff tends to your every need with a smile and makes you feel right at home. They meet you at the car and you are treated like the only one there from that moment on. Now, I know that a lot of hotels have amazing staff. But the genuine friendliness struck me as the norm here and I felt it through my entire stay.
Before we got the keys to our rooms, we sat out in the large, beautiful courtyard and soaked in the fresh air and sunshine that California is famous for. The trees were blooming and we felt spoiled in the cloak of flowers gently swaying in the breeze.
When I did enter my room, my smile beamed at the feeling of ultimate luxury that was going to spoil me for the days to come. My room was spacious and my view unobstructed and breath taking. I watched as people milled around the back of the hotel on the sidewalks and lush grounds as I stood up above in my room. I did not want to leave it, to be honest. The warm, inviting bed did not have three children in it and the large television would not have Dora or Spongebob on it.
But there was so much to explore that I had to get out and look around.
I found the indoor/ outdoor bar to be charming and the perfect place to relax after a long day. And the poolside restaurant where I enjoyed a delicious lunch was straight out of a movie set.
The Langham Pasadena is enough off the beaten path to give you the privacy and getaway you need but close enough to attractions and spots to see that you still get to tour Pasadena and the surrounding cities and enjoy your vacation.
Next time you are headed to California make sure you check into the Lanham Pasadena. You’ll be cloaked with old time charm and style with the flare of modern sophistication.
