Editorial Review for The Beverly Hills Hotel – by Ginny Chien

The Scene
Before there was a city of Beverly Hills, there was the Beverly Hills Hotel. Since opening in 1912, it 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 Hepburn with shade and privacy.

The Details
Shamelessly decadent and glamorous, the sprawling Mission Revival-style property oozes old money--think robe-wearing cement monkeys flanking the front doors, flowing crystal chandeliers and banana palm-printed wallpaper. Some of the luxuries include outdoor swimming pool with 21 private cabanas, two outdoor tennis courts, beauty salon, men's shop and limo service.

2 Star Rating: Below Average

I dropped in for one night in LA and while staying at the hotel the staff wasn't very welcoming and they were a bit on the snobby side. The next morning I was planning on dining in the Polo Lounge with my husband and they recommended us NOT to go in there because we were wearing jeans, when after our breakfast downstairs in the coffee cafe we had seen 2 couples walking out of there dressed casual and in jeans. I wouldn't recommend you to stay while it's raining, the staff seems a bit more moody then than they usually do. : / well good luck with your choice, i recommend Four Seasons Beverly Hills (amazing & friendly concierge) and the new Raffles L'Ermitage Hotel.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Everything about this place from the neighborhood, layout and rooms is perfect. My favorite thing is breakfast downstairs in the diner, the corn beef hash will jade you for any others. Watching them make steak tartare in the Polo Lounge is way cool. I often end up buying a half day extra just cause I don't want to leave the heavenly rooms. The pink palace forever!
