Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles, CA - Thursday April 1, 2010

We went to spend a night at the historic Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles.  Many luminaries have stayed at this hotel.  Ronald Reagan was a frequent guest.  When he was the Governor of California, Ronald Reagan met with Gerald Ford at the Century Plaza hotel.  This picture of that meeting was taken by Pulitzer Prize winning photographer David Hume Kennerly.  

I don't think we were in the same room that Reagan was in, but we were close!  What a great view!

Ivett and I both enjoyed the view!

The hotel has a great bar in the lobby where we enjoyed some beverages.

One last moment on the balcony before checking out!

 

I truly enjoyed my stay at the Century Plaza Hotel in LA!  This hotel is listed as one of America's 11 most endangered historic places by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.  Developers has a plan to raze the building and build new high rise condominiums.  Fortunately, the new plan keeps this landmark intact. 

Cheers!
