Really fun beaux arts hotel where the Munchkins stayed during the filming of Wizard of Oz. Entire lobby transformed into a restaurant with a great menu, and live music some nights. Upstairs bar is fun too, with a room for private parties.

Loads to see here, fun place, just adjacent to The Grove. Parking tip: 90 minutes free; if you want to stay longer, then leave and re-enter. Parking fees here are crazy expensive otherwise!
