Luxury Healing Hotels The Langham Huntington, Pasadena
1401 South Oak Knoll, Pasadena, CA 91106, United States
HOTEL OVERVIEW
You know what? I’ve stayed at a lot of hotels in the LA area, but The Langham Huntington really caught me off guard – in the best way possible. When you pull up that winding drive off Oak Knoll (and yeah, valet parking is basically a must here because the self-parking situation is… let’s just say it’s not their strong suit), you’re immediately hit with this old-school elegance that doesn’t feel stuffy or pretentious. The place has this 1907 Gilded Age charm that somehow manages to feel fresh, probably because they actually know how to blend historic character with modern comfort instead of just slapping some fancy wallpaper on outdated rooms.
The location is honestly perfect if you want to avoid the chaos of downtown LA but still be close to everything that matters. You’re maybe ten minutes from Old Town Pasadena – which, if you haven’t been, has some seriously good restaurants and that whole walkable vibe that’s rare in Southern California. The Rose Bowl is right there too, so if you’re visiting during football season or the monthly flea market (which, honestly, is worth planning a trip around), you’re golden. But here’s what I really love about this spot: it sits in this quiet residential area where you can actually hear birds in the morning instead of traffic. The gardens are genuinely spectacular – not just “nice for a hotel” but actually worth wandering around with your coffee. There’s this Japanese garden that feels like a secret hideaway, and the bridge over the little stream is where everyone takes their Instagram photos, but somehow it never feels crowded.
The rooms themselves are spacious in a way that West Coast hotels often aren’t, and the beds are that perfect firm-but-soft combination that means you’ll actually sleep well. I mean, the turndown service is nice and all, but what really impressed me was how quiet everything stays even when the hotel is busy. The walls are thick, the hallways don’t echo, and you won’t hear your neighbors’ TV at midnight. The spa is legitimately relaxing – not just expensive for the sake of being expensive – and the pool area has this resort feel without the chaos of kids running around (though families are definitely welcome, it just maintains this calm atmosphere somehow). Service-wise, the staff actually remembers your name and preferences without being overly familiar, which is a tough balance to strike. Sure, you’re paying premium prices, but for Pasadena, it’s honestly reasonable considering what you get. Plus, if you’re here for business, the conference facilities are top-notch and the Wi-Fi actually works everywhere on the property, which sounds basic but you’d be surprised how many fancy hotels mess that up.

I love the Langham - I loved it when it was the Ritz and the Sheraton. The best hotel in Pasadena and very close to downtown LA. Just a fantastic hotel and beautiful property with top of the line amenities and services. Highly recommend the spa. Jessica at the Tap Room is also a fantastic - highly recommend visiting her at the bar! The Langham...

I did not get a receipt for the room rate etc like one does when you check out. They were supposed to email it. NEVER DID. STILL WAITING
Terri from United States
The staff at the Tap Room AND the Terrace were very accommodating and attentive - the food was very good. The hotel was pet friendly to an older small dog.
