Wow!! I loved everything about this place. Beautiful, clean, and the host was very attentive in ensuring that I was enjoying my stay. He would wake up in the mornings and make breakfast. An amazing experience!

This is honestly the best stay I have ever had anywhere. TJ was the best. I cannot express how much we enjoyed our stay here. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!!

Great room, great service and a beautiful view!

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.

TJ the host is absolutely one of the best people for this job. He treats you like family. This place is extremely organized and clean. One of my favorite places to stay in Los Angeles area.

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!

Beautiful house and setting. TJ was the most gracious host. He made our stay feel like going home to family. Fantastic stay - would recommend it to anyone and everyone. It’s apparent TJ really enjoys being the host.

It sits on top a hill with a great view. Outdoor space was easy to use. Property was roomy and well cared for.

TJ was an amazing host and the service was impeccable. The scenery of the property was relaxing and spectacular. The room was perfect for a short weekend getaway, and I highly recommend this intimate property to get away from the busy noise of the city. Serene, historic, luxury place for a great price.

Beautiful relaxing spot! Hospitality can’t be beat!

The rooms, amenities, and views were all breathtaking. The attention to detail and and thoughtful caretakimg was truly world-class! We were able to experience the Parade of Roses and the Rose Bowl to the most beautifully curated experience we could have imagined. Kudos! I recommend the Patrician to any and everyone!

The host was wonderful and accommodating. We appreciated the hospitality.

TJ is a wonderful host . The rooms are super clean . The property is quite beautiful .

What an amazing find! The location is out of this world. One that movie stars enjoy and one that you will never get tired of. At night you have the entire LA to your feet. Amazing. The hosts are amazing. TJ and his wife Jorie are both so good at making you feel home that after just a few minutes I felt I had known them for decades. The house is delightful, amazing, old and historic all at the same time. The decorations are just the over the top touch. The rooms are delightful, not that you will spend much time in them. Keep in mind two of their rooms are Jack and Jill bathroom shares. Something I personally do not do but if you are traveling with family or good friends that might very much be your option. The two Twins upstairs is what we opted for because of the bathroom being private. The room is small but very cute decorated and therefore certainly a good option. I would call it the tower room. Up the spiral staircase of this historic home, that alone is an adventure worth taking. This house is an old historic home. If you are expecting large generic decorated rooms this is not your place. You are not just meeting amazing hosts but also staying at a historic home with tons of character and history. We are so looking forward to another trip to LA just to be able to stay again with TJ and Jorie. ...oh and be prepared to get a really nice breakfast in the morning and a great conversation over coffee or tea. We did not want to leave. Thank you Jorie and TJ.

driving everywhere required.

TJ was genuinely welcoming and endlessly entertaining. One of those interesting humans who seemingly effortlessly turn a stressful trip into a fun and relaxing weekend. Breakfast was our favorite time of day although happy hour was always good too. Best lemon drop on the planet!

This hotel is a unique property. You will not be disappointed by your host TJ. And yes, you will want one of his perfect lemon drops!

The Patrician is a rare and beautiful find. The location for a business, restorative or to go to any event at nearby event venues like the Rose Bowl can't be beat. Breakfast simple and generous. Rooms quiet and very private. TJ's genuine care to make each guest completely comfortable makes me want to return. And I will!

I rated Patrician as a 10, but in reality, it’s not a 10. It's more akin to a million! Places like this have an ability to elevate your sense of happiness, and my well-being is certainly worth more than a mere 10. Here are 3 reasons why Patrician should be in your bucket list. 1. The beauty. The sheer magnificence of both nature and the estate is breathtaking. Every piece of furniture and decoration is a masterpiece. The exterior grounds left me in awe, prompting me to continually snap photos on my phone. I felt transported to a picturesque Italian villa. The only difference is price. Picturesque Italian villas cost waaay more. 2. The host. TJ is nothing short of exceptional. I’ve been to numerous hotels and B&Bs but Patrician is a next level. TJ loves welcoming people and ensuring their happiness. Upon our arrival, TJ offered us delectable martinis, setting the stage for an engaging conversation. I felt as if I reunited with an old friend after many years. 3. The details. Any trinket is meticulously curated. For example, the towels. What is it made of, TJ? Angel’s feathers? The same level of excellence extends to the bedding, tableware, carpets—every facet exemplifies the highest standard. The only downside: why no one warned me in reviews that 1 night stay is not enough? I want more! A return visit is an absolute must for me! Don’t make the same mistake and book at least 2 nights stay to fully bask in the enchantment of Patrician!

My fiance and I came to Pasadena to elope. We reached out to the hotel to ask if we could have a small wedding ceremony on their property. They agreed. (A first wedding for them!) They helped us pick the ideal spot, snapped photos, provided flowers, and even celebrated the occasion with champagne. TJ and Jordie are the most incredible hosts and we plan on coming back to celebrate our anniversary! In regards to the location- it is a gorgeous and spacious spot filled with cultural artifacts collected from their travels. It is truly breathtaking, and meeting TJ and Jorie- the home is filled with love. Thank you for a wonderful weekend getaway. We appreciate you so much.

Absolutely amazing place, amenities, and hosts!!! The level of care and attention to details is unmatched. Beautiful home atop the hill with gorgeous views of the cities below. Attentive hosts who are always available for great stories, nightcaps, and early morning breakfast. Love our stay here & will highly recommend to everyone. Parking is available for those who hate parking on the street.

This bnb was a wonderful experience. TJ was one of the best hosts I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing for a bed and breakfast, and truly showed me what the bed and breakfast experience should be from now on. TJ truly has a wealth of knowledge For Pasadena and the greater Los Angeles area and is a very good resource for what to do if you ever are at a loss when you're on vacation.

This is an older large home located atop a hill among many private luxury homes in an exclusive area. While the outdoor areas are pleasing with great views, the inside is dated and not inviting. More like inside an antique store. The Route 66 room downstairs was sweet but very small. I didn’t realize upon booking that it included a shared tiny bathroom! Omg! Who pays $353 a night for a shared bathroom with some guy and his teenage daughter thru the other pocket door! This property was highly rated probably due to its quiet remoteness, free parking and limited rooms. It would have been an acceptable alternative to pricey large chain hotels in the area, but that shared bathroom was/is a complete dealbreaker.

Staying at this place was a truly unique experience. The hotel is comfortable with exquisite decorations. The garden is beautiful with playful birds drinking water. You can have a good view of Los Angeles from the property. Host TJ is super friendly, and we had great conversation. He also gave us detailed info about best locations to view Hollywood sign and LA downtown, and parking place visiting Hollywood star walk.

Best hotel I've ever experienced. Fantastic management, fantastic view and rooms, great breakfast

TJ was an amazing greeter! Met me at the front door of the lobby as I arrived. Had a great conversation with TJ about Hammerin’ Hank Aaron. Only stayed 1 night, but told TJ I will be back soon to stay longer so we can tell stories! TJ, you know my room! Had a great stay and really enjoyed my room. Very clean and bed was very comfortable! I will return sooner than later! Thank you TJ, we will stay in touch for future events!

TJ is an amazingly dedicated host. Great breakfasts and conversation around the kitchen island (and beer for me when we rolled in late!). Great stories of interesting people who have stayed there. Great views. Nice 2.2 mile walk to the Rose Bowl and 2.2 mile uphill hike back up! Expedia should make it clear that this is a B&B and not a hotel. Loved the Moroccan bedroom!

TJ was a fantastic host; we had a great time just hanging out and chatting with him. He went out of his way to make us feel comfort and welcome. I feel like we made a friend for life. The property is beautifully maintained and decorated and the views over LA are spectacular. We will definitely be back!

Staying at the Airbnb was an amazing experience from start to finish. The host went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. The space was beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The host's attention to detail, like leaving us some delicious French yogurt, made us feel truly appreciated. What really made our stay memorable was the connection we formed with the host. They treated us like good friends and even made time to spend with us. We felt like we were part of their family while staying there. Overall, our stay at the Airbnb exceeded all expectations and we're already looking forward to coming back in the future. -SHREY & KC

The Patrician is by far the best stay I've had when visiting California. Clean, friendly, cordial, interesting, Not too close and not too far from everything.Thank you T.J. for everything!

If you are looking for a typical hotel experience, this may not be a fit for you. However (and at this point I will transition to poetry): “If you enjoy beautiful accommodations - If you have a penchant for lively conversations - If your cocktail cravings veer toward a lemon drop - If you have an appreciation for views that are non-stop. Then may I suggest the Patrician for your Pasedna stay? It is a unique and special place for a romantic getaway!” As has been mentioned in numerous reviews, T.J. is a top-notch concierge and host. His suggestions provided some real highlights for our weekend! He obviously takes great pride and joy in hosting guests on his amazing property. Truly a memorable time - Bed linens were so soft and the towels were fluffy! It’s those small details that make a stay feel special. The Patrician has so many little touches that make it stand out in a crowd of B&B’s. The pour-over coffee is a totally zen experience that has me re-thinking my current morning ritual. The decor is sumptuous and every piece seems to tell a story. This is a quiet spot - not a party house. There are stairs so take that into consideration. Also - you are asked to remove your shoes upon entering the home, so a pair of inside slippers would be recommended. Thank you, T.J. for a wonderful weekend!!

I have stayed here multiple times, and will continue to stay here any time I’m in LA. Quiet and beautiful. The house and host are a unique experience that adds to any trip, including couples get aways, solo travelers and biz trips (I have done them all while staying here). The proprietor, TJ, is knowledgeable about destinations and landmarks in LA, and very helpful with suggestions and solving any inconveniences that arise. The house is a historic mansion located in the hills above Pasadena with sweeping views of LA. Each of the rooms has a unique layout and vibe. The living room, dining rooms, and kitchen are open to all guests, and decorated with objects collected during the proprietor’s travels. Definitely ask for the stories behind them. Most recently stayed here for events at the LA Convention Center and Union Station, and the location was convenient. I recommend this location to everyone I talk to about traveling to LA, and I recommend it to you, too. Maybe you’ll see me there.
