Hollywood goes Hollywood

The neighbourhood of Hollywood is often a favourite hangout for celebrities. Avalon is still a famous nightclub, but long gone are its glory days when Madonna, Prince and the Rolling Stones partied here. Today’s DJs spin techno, house and nu-electro. Try your luck at super trendy Drai’s, in the W Hollywood hotel. Inside you may spot Jennifer Lopez and Paris Hilton, outside you enjoy great views of the LA skyline. Sit back in the velvet sofas and watch the crowd, or dance to house, hip hop or contemporary hits. Another excellent Hollywood hotspot is Boulevard3. The club’s motto is ‘Keep it active and deliver the unexpected’. Its interior evokes a mixture of a cosy living room, a luxurious 5-star estate and a hip playground. So you may not only find yourself rubbing elbows with your favourite film star, but also savouring a serving of chocolate-dipped strawberries. On the house, of course.
