What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The Aster is, before anything else, a private club, a much-needed oasis at the very public intersection of Hollywood and Vine.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set right at Hollywood and Vine, the club sits steps from the Walk of Fame, Pantages Theatre, and the Capitol Records tower.
The rooms
Expansive suites feature mid-century sofas, antique armoires, and three-way dressing mirrors, opening onto private terraces overlooking the courtyard or city.
The courtyard pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Heated waters sit in the second-floor courtyard, lined with daybeds, native trees, and fringed parasols.
Gym and pilates studio
Cardio gear, weights, and a punching bag share space with a dedicated Reformer Pilates studio.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
Aster Park Lounge
Drinks are shaken behind a plum-tiled counter in a bright lounge that opens onto the pool deck.
At the table
Lemon Grove serves dinner among rooftop lemon trees, and club lounges host candlelit tables beneath glowing pendant lights.
How it began
Visual artist Tristan Eaton painted the exterior facade with towering portraits honoring Hollywood icons Sidney Poitier and Judy Garland.
