What People Are Saying About The Beverly Hills Hotel

Before there was a city of Beverly Hills, there was the Beverly Hills Hotel. Since opening in 1912, this storied Pink Palace has changed hands more than a dozen times (once owned by the Sultan of Brunei) and shut down twice (first during the Depression, then in 1992 for a three-year renovation). Silent-film stars like Rudolph Valentino socialized here. Ludicrously wealthy magnates like Howard Hughes signed away billion-dollar companies like TWA by the pool. Elizabeth Taylor honeymooned with six of her eight husbands in the famously private bungalows, and poolside cabanas provided Katharine…
A Classic Hotel Reminiscent of Yesteryear
by jungatheart at Citysearch
This is one of those hotels that makes you wish you lived decades ago. Every aspect of this hotel is perfection! The decor, the staff, the beauty, is impeccable. Without a doubt, it is one of my favorite hotels in the world--a list that I can count on one hand, and absolutely should not be missed.
PS. They have a fabulous Sunday Jazz Brunch on the terrace.
- Pros: Wonderful in every way
- Cons: Yet to find one
Great Hotel
by OceanGirl at Citysearch
This is a landmark in Beverly Hills. This hotel will cater to your every need. They have beautiful rooms, a great pool and there is nothing like the famous Polo Lounge.
- Pros: Fabulous Location
Best service in the world - wish I could give it ten stars

Out of all the luxurious hotels I've stayed in, this is by far the best. The hotel staff are gracious, accommodating & not at ALL snobby. The rooms are impeccable, & while dining at the Polo Lounge I rubbed elbows with Jennifer Aniston & Vince Vaughan, back before the breakup, while they were still only a rumoured couple. I have also seen Danny Devito & Dan Akroyd having lunch together but of course would never approach them. Asking for an autograph, or sticking a camera in someone's face while they are trying to eat is beyond rude and thankfully the hotel would never tolerate that sort of behavior anyway.
One thing I must mention is that during one of my stays at the BHH, I fell ill & had to go to the E.R., but my 4 year old was sleeping (it was midnight). Since the nanny service was closed, the manager sent her head of security to stay with him, at no extra cost, so that my little prince didn't have to be disturbed while I went to the E.R. I should say that I am extremely discriminating with whom I allow to babysit my child, but I have first hand knowledge of how well this hotel screens their employees, especially security. When I returned at 4 a.m. my child was still sleeping soundly & the television was turned off, the remote where I left it. The guard didn't turn on the t.v., or even a light, so as not to disturb him. I tried to tip him & the Manager but they both refused, saying that was not their way at he BHH to take advantage of a guests misfortune. Both were very kind & I certainly would never be extended this sort of kindness at a Holiday Inn or similar.
I highly recommend this grand hotel to anyone hoping to experience old Hollywood style. The service is unparalleled, the decor stunning, & the food is . There isn't an amenity you can think of that they don't offer. Be sure not to miss the pool. Classical music plays softly when you dive under the water. Its not trendy (thank God) & reeks of old money. I prefer classy to trendy anyday.
- Pros: Stunning Ambience, Amazing Service, Celeb-sightings for the star-struck, Limo and delivery service
- Cons: Hard on the wallet
