—EL SEGUNDO—

Aloft

Needing a quick and easy, no-fuss staycation where your furry friend can tag along? Aloft El Segundo is dog friendly, and its brightly decorated rooms are pretty human-friendly, too. Take a dip in their outdoor pool, or have a drink at the bar, and you’ll be miles away, even if home is just around the corner.

Cambria Hotel LAX

If Scandinavian aesthetics instantly destress you, we recommend the Cambria Hotel LAX and their mid-century modern inspirations. Need more ways to relax? Enjoy the heated outdoor pool and cabanas while the sun is out, and then head to the firepits for a perfect evening end. If you bring your pet along, they’ll receive a complimentary Pet Amenity Kit because pets have needs too!
