This is an extremely unique, charming, historical property in a beautiful area which is just begging to be explored. The house itself warrants a longer visit to appreciate the care and attention paid to making it endlessly interesting, and TJ enhances the entire experience with his hospitality and knowledge. I highly recommend staying here for a delightful respite from the fast pace of LA while being ideally situated.

I was fortunate to book a stay at the Patrician Hollywood Universal when I flew into town for a convention. Beautiful house with exceptional outdoor space and clean and comfortable rooms. It is good to know going in that you are paying for a room in lovely home. So it is not your average hotel. However the host is always available and there is breakfast ready for you every morning. One of the things I loved about the Patrician is that it was an engaging and intimate stay. I got to meet with the other house guests and we all sat around a table drinking and eating and sharing stories of our travels. Another thing I liked that may be a deal breaker for some is that there were no TV's in the rooms (at least not in mine). However I found that refreshing as it gave me a break from the tube and allowed me a more refreshing stay. However the absolute best part of my stay was the host himself. TJ was by far the greatest host I've ever come across and has set the bar very high for my next many travels. I will definitely be booking again at the Patrician. Thanks for chocolate croissant!

We stayed their rhe night of our wedding. The host TJ upgraded us and brought us martinis when we arrived. The place is beautiful and the view is spectacular. We had a personal breakfast experience with TJ the next morning. We had a lovely time. Also, it was a great value for the price.

We had a delightful time at this estate -- very different from just your cookie cutter hotel stay! TJ was an amazing host -- interesting conversation, yummy snacks and breakfast and just did everything he could to make us feel comfortable. The backyard is gorgeous and was lovely to relax in after we came back from dinner out. The interior of the home is magnificent -- so tastefully decorated with unusual, but beautiful decor.

WOW! The Patrician is the place to be if you want to relax and take in the views. My husband and I highly recommend this wonderful location as a fun getaway. The best part was our host TJ. His hosting skills are on point. He provided the classy finishing touches to our stay at this beautiful home hidden in the hills. Tj keeps the house immaculate and has fresh flowers throughout the house. TJ also made us a delicious breakfast. We enjoyed our breakfast in the kitchen with another couple and TJ. It was a lovely morning.Can't wait to recommend this place to anyone that will listen. Thanks TJ!

Beautiful and unique property with fabulous canyon and downtown pasadena views. That was enough to make us give this place a five star review. But TJ, the host, took it to the next level - he was incredibly generous and personable - if we could, we’d give him a 10 star review. We are already planning a second visit.

Wish we could give more than only a 10 Star rating! What a gem of a place overall. The premises were beyond our expectations: beautifully appointed historic home set on an idyllic point above an 180 degree view from the San Gabriel Mountains to the skyscrapers of DTLA. It was a sanctuary retreat where we spent 2 nights chillaxing and more. TJ was the consummate host who pre anticipated all of our desires and was Uber friendly and welcoming. Don’t tell your friends as we want to always have an available room to return to soon!
