The Glass Box

There are no two ways about it, this home in the Hills is an absolute showstopper – it's at the very top of the A-list alongside the likes of Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep. So it's no surprise that a few of Hollywood's biggest names have actually stayed here. It's an architectural masterpiece that's all retractable glass and teak walls and bamboo flooring encapsulating zen-like serenity in the midst of bustling Laurel Canyon. And with beds as luscious as these, you'll never want to leave. If you can tear yourself away, you can follow in the handprints of the stars at the Walk of Fame, an eight-minute drive away, while you're just nine minutes from the vibrant nightlife of the Sunset Strip. If you'd like to stretch your legs, then an early morning hike to the Hollywood sign is around two hours one way, so we'd probably grab a Lyft back. Otherwise, Runyon Canyon is a more manageable two-hour round trip.
