Beverly Wilshire - A Four Seasons Hotel 

Legendary as it is luxurious

The ‘Pretty Woman’ of Hollywood hotels, Beverly Wilshire is a magnet for anyone with a crush on movie star glam.

Forever a landmark hotel, Beverly Wilshire knows how to combine the classic with the contemporary. It’s got oodles of old-style elegance but also a high-energy ambience that attracts next-gen natives to its Rodeo Drive sidewalk. Inside, you’re privy to life’s little luxuries. Service everywhere is a slick operation. Out on the terrace, everything is a glitterati affair. Attendants are on hand with Evian spritz and shots of juice by a glorious swimming pool modelled on Sophia Loren’s own pool at her Mediterranean home. An ornate porte-cochère and a stately gate inspired by the ones found at Buckingham Palace separate the wings, which tells you just how much regal thought has gone into this hotel.
