Need a Room During a Layover But Not Overnight? Check-In to Sheraton Gateway LAX

Where: 6101 West Century Boulevard [map], Los Angeles, ca, United States, 90045

The description "airport hotel" doesn't exactly have us running to the computer to make a reservation, but the Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles--which has no problem labeling itself as such--has piqued our interest.

Not only is the hotel stylish, but it also has a fitness center, heated outdoor pool and whirlpool replete with cabanas, and offers a full-service Starbucks, as well as fine-dining options through The Brasserie and Shula's 347 steakhouse. Just a short distance from LAX terminals 1 and 7, the Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles also provides free shuttle service to the airport.

A perfect opportunity to check out the hotel lies with its "Fly Well Package," because who doesn't have a lay over when flying to LAX? For a starting price of $199, allows one to use a guest room from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.--overnight accommodation can be arranged for an additional fee--as well as use of the heated pool and fitness and business centers. Other perks include an organic spa meal, a wellness amenity package that includes a neck and eye pillow and energy bar and complimentary shuttle service.

The 802 rooms have Sheraton's signature Sweet Sleeper Beds, bath amenities from Bliss and proclaim to offer "stunning views of the runway," if there is such a thing. We're thinking this might be the first hotel to boast an anti-view with every room, but then again, the airplane geeks will love this place.
