Frommer's Review

Art Deco takes a decidedly Parisian turn in this 1939 Hohauser hotel completely renovated in 1994 by Parisian designer Chahan Minassian. The Greenview is located just 2 blocks from the ocean on a quiet corner that's close enough to the action, but far enough away that you'll actually feel secluded from the nearby hyperactivity. Recordings of Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich provide background to this elegantly understated hotel, whose jewel-box, living-room-like lobby opens to a serene courtyard. Rooms feature handcrafted furnishings, original Modernist artwork, hardwood floors, and sisal area rugs, although some are rather tawdry and hostel-like. Hallways are a bit dingy, too and a far cry from the inviting lobby. The best part about the hotel is the feel-at-home factor, bolstered by the complimentary baker's breakfast and iced tea and chocolate-chip cookies in the afternoon and evening. Some guests feel so comfy here, they even go down in their pajamas to grab a midnight snack!

Facilities:
Small business center; same-day laundry service
