The Beverly Hills Hotel

The full name of this magnificent haven is The Beverly Hills Hotel and Bungalows.This 'Pink Palace', as it is famously known, is as plush and attractive as you'll ever want in a hotel, and if you're rich, or you simply want to splurge on a hotel experience and pull out all the stops, the Beverly Hills Hotel is the one for you. Sporting 12 acres of lush gardens of flowers, walkways and landscaping, the setting is relaxing and beautiful and all you could want in a hotel that is situated in the middle of Beverly Hills and right on Sunset Boulevard.

The Beverly Hills Hotel features 204 rooms, and the standard features in each room go so far beyond your normal expectations that I won't even list the 'normal' items like hair dryers, mini bars and the rest: touches that will pleasantly surprise you in every room include: exceptional soundproofing; choice of four daily newspapers; a DVD player; an in-room safe for your valuables; a private fax machine; a TV in the bathroom; three multi-line phone systems; a button to summon a butler... and more to tickle your imagination, assist your business trip, or soothe your vacation comfort. These amenities are standard in every room, and each room features different decor and custom-made furnishings and even custom linens.

Of those 204 rooms, many are specialty suites, including the famous Paul Williams suite, and - just to knock your socks off - the Presidential suite. The Presidential suite is a huge 2500 square feet, has a full commercially-applianced kitchen, a private entrance, a Jacuzzi tub, separate showers, and your own treadmill. For the ultimate in personal care, you have your own chef and butler, both on call 24 hours day or night.

21 of the rooms are individual bungalow rooms, each having private entrances, and complete with living and dining rooms, wood burning fireplace, and many having such luxuries as pianos, Jacuzzis, multiple bedrooms, and exotic furnishings and materials like granite and marble.

For the star-struck, you can also enquire about suites and bungalows that have interesting history, like those that have housed such mythical stars as Liz Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Walter Annenberg and many others. For the luxury and the Hollywood treatment, including world class dining, shops and amenities, the Beverly Hills Hotel must be your first choice!
