On one of our previous trips to LA, we stayed at the Magic Castle Hotel, right next to the Magic Castle, a private magicians club that features magic shows and dinners nightly. We tried to stay there this time, only there were no rooms! Luckily, the MC owns another hotel about a 1/4 mile into the Hollywood Hills above the Magic Castle called the Hollywood Hills. It was affordable, spacious, and the views from our room were spectacular!

View from our room - Griffith Observatory was visible in the distance, as was the Capitol Records building!

Our hotel was right next to an ultra-romantic (or at least it was when I saw it on an episode of the Style network's "I Propose"!) Cal-Asian (seriously - that's what they call it!) restaurant called Yamashiro. We didn't have time to check it out, but it's on our list for next time!

We took a walk among the Hollywood hills on Saturday morning and we discovered this cool pagoda entryway on our way down the mountain.

A beautiful mansion that we passed on our walk, named (pretentiously) Chateau something or other.
