Weekend Escape: Kodo Hotel, LA

If you're looking for a luxe yet peaceful weekend escape, Kodo Hotel in Los Angeles is the perfect hidden gem — equal parts style, calm, and quiet luxury.

Hi my reader,

Thank you for always being here — your support means so much. Today, I want to share a truly special place where I spent a dreamy weekend and celebrated my birthday.

Kodo Hotel, tucked away in LA’s Arts District, is the ultimate quiet luxury escape. Just 8 beautifully designed rooms, blending Japanese minimalism, natural textures, soft light, and total calm. I stayed in an airy loft-style suite with an open shower — effortlessly chic.

We had dinner under the stars at their in-house restaurant — refined Japanese omakase, sparkling lights, and the coziest vibe. Mornings started with a matcha-strawberry latte and warm croissants from Kodo Café. Honestly, it was the perfect way to welcome a new year of life.

I also filmed a Reels from this weekend — it’s now live on Instagram if you're in the mood for a little aesthetic getaway.

Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful recharge or a special celebration. Just be sure to book early — with only a few rooms, it books up fast.
