And now Los Angeles has a NoMad Hotel. It’s spectacular. The building, from the 1920s, was formerly the Bank of Italy. Much of the original architecture remains and the design borrows a lot from Northern Italy. But it still feels like a NoMad. Book a corner suite or else, come for drinks and dinner. Or to be a hotel lobby hanger arounder. Ain’t nothing wrong with that. #WheninLosAngeles #DTLA #HotelOpenings #HotHotels #NYCinLA #ETIStyle (at The NoMad Hotel, Los Angeles)

See the guy looking up. This is from my room on the fourth floor of The Beekman hotel in downtown Manhattan. I know, the non-straight angle in which I clicked this photo is driving me nuts too. The Beekman drips atmosphere. You walk in, and you think, where their buildings in New York that were as a magnificent and yet, as cozy as this? And then you think, Frank Gehry, behold the power of wrought iron, geometric details on the floor, mood lighting, and sound absorbing tapestries (which by the way could not absorb the racket around the cocktail hour downstairs). Gehry's building by the way, it's just down the road. I stayed here for four days and loved it. There are a few hotels in India that have this combination that The Beekman does so effortlessly. Stylish, design driven, and yet, completely rooted in the geography of its location. The Park Chennai comes to mind. But for the most part, hotels, particularly chain hotels seem to take the philosophy that they ought to look like they could be anywhere. The Beekman was anointed on Condé Nast traveler's hot list. Travel and leisure put it on the cover of its Hotels issue. #newyork #hotels #thebeekmanhotel #hothotels #manhattan #hotlist #condenasttraveler #travelandleisure

Thrilled to contribute to Angeleno magazine’s May issue on hot new hotels. 

The properly stunning view from the rooftop of the Hollywood Proper, opening this summer. #WheninHollywood #HotHotels #HotelOpenings #nowthatsproper (at Hollywood Proper Residences)

BEST wallpaper at Pawn Broker, the rooftop bar and lounge from @pubbellyboys atop the just-opened @thelangfordhotel in downtown Miami. This is the first truly boutique hotel for downtown and it's so well-done. Not the typical South Beach scene and that's a good thing. #WheninMiami #MiamiHotels #hotelwallpaper #hothotels #hotelopenings

Another perfect stay at @thehallsouthbeach. Chill vibes and friendly faces. 🌴✌🏻️😀#WheninSouthBeach #hothotels (at The Hall South Beach)
