Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Amarano Burbank

Close to Burbank's TV and movie studios, the smartly designed Amarano feels like a Beverly Hills boutique hotel, complete with 24-hour room service, a homey on-site restaurant and lounge, and lovely rooms. The lobby is welcoming with a glass-enclosed fireplace and corners for quiet conversation, cocktails, or tapas. Pillow-top beds are covered in comfy duvets; thoughtful touches include plush bathrobes and hooks for hanging garment bags. The generous work spaces have state-of-the-art lighting, and the bathrooms have granite vanities, makeup mirrors, and shelves for storage. The hotel's amenities also include a saltwater pool and hot tub with cabanas and a fitness center.
