**About Us** Located on the iconic Sunset Strip, The Sun Rose West Hollywood is a newly rebranded, independent, award-winning hotel and a proud member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts. The property features 149 guest rooms and suites, a signature rooftop poolside restaurant by Wolfgang Puck, a full-service spa, and an intimate live music venue.
