The 116-room, upper-middle-range Beverly
Hills Plaza Hotel is in a central residential area on Wilshire Boulevard where
many attractions are less than a 15-minute drive away. Although the common areas
are upscale, with old Hollywood glamour, rooms are plainer in neutral tones.
Mini-fridges, minibars, bathrobes and slippers, and Starbucks coffee are
included in all rooms, while suites have perks like jetted tubs, terraces with
seating, or fully-equipped kitchens. The full-service spa is a
plus for guests and locals, and the on-site restaurant serves traditional
American food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Outside there is a pool with gorgeous marble fountains and a small hot tub, in addition to a garden
with koi pond. There are daily fees for Wi-Fi and on-site parking. Guests seeking a sleeker, more modern property with similar features, though no spa, could try Luxe Hotel Rodeo Drive.

Scene
Classic old Hollywood style with Asian art and a koi pond in the garden
Relaxed and quiet, the Beverly Hills Plaza
Hotel has a classic and refined old Hollywood style with Asian art accents
throughout. Buddha statues sit at the entrance, while fresh flowers in chic, old-fashioned vases adorn all common areas. A grand lobby
is decorated with a gorgeous chandelier with light tile floors, black armchairs, antique
tan couches, and lovely vintage fixtures. The interior garden area is filled
with greenery, and waterfall fountains lead down to a koi pond. The pool area is simple and elegant, with a pale stone deck lined with bright blue loungers, and with fountains built into the stone walls. A stone feature
wall and dark wood floors make the on-site spa feel modern, while white, tufted
leather chairs and flickering candles add some polish. Some guests mention that
the waterfall fountains are too loud, though the property is generally serene throughout. The hotel lures a mix of business travelers and families, including many repeat and long-term guests who come for the reliably top-notch service, convenient location, and self-catering suites.
Location
In a central, residential area within walking distance of Los Angeles Country Club and Westfield Century City
The Beverly Hills Plaza Hotel is in a residential
area on Wilshire Boulevard, about 15 minutes from the beaches of Santa Monica and 30 minutes from downtown. Within the immediate area are a few restaurants, and guests can walk to Los Angeles Country Club in 10 minutes, and shopping at Westfield Century
City in about 20 minutes. UCLA and Rodeo Drive are both less than a 10-minute
drive from the hotel, while the Getty Museum and Los Angeles County Museum of
Art are around 15 minutes away. Los Angeles International Airport is about
25 minutes from the hotel.
Rooms
Big and comfortable with antique style; suites have fully-equipped kitchens and jetted tubs
All rooms at the Beverly Hills Plaza
Hotel are spacious and stylish, with classic yet somewhat dated decor. Neutral patterned rugs and
antique couches adorn the common areas, while cream tufted headboards and Asian artwork lend extra panache. All rooms have flat-screen TVs, microwaves, mini-fridges, minibars, and Starbucks
coffee for the coffeemakers, while suites have kitchenettes or
fully-equipped kitchens with full-size appliances. Extra comforts include bathrobes and slippers, and -- in some suites -- bedside iPod docking stations. Natural light floods in through large windows, and
there are fresh flowers perfuming each room. Some suites have private, furnished terraces
with pool or garden views. Some rooms are only
accessible by stairs, though. Bathrooms are awash in tan tile, and have walk-in showers with rainfall showerheads. Suites' bathrooms have jetted tubs and glass-doored showers, along with flat-screen TVs. Beverly Hills Plaza Hotel brand toiletries are provided.
Features
Lovely spa and restaurant in addition to outdoor pool and hot tub
The full-service spa with hair
salon, massages, body and cosmetic treatments, and facials is a major highlight for
guests and locals. There’s
also an on-site restaurant, Le Petit Cafe and Bar, which serves American food for
breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and has a small poolside menu. The food can be a
bit pricy though, and receives mixed reviews. The outdoor pool offers blue
lounge chairs and cabanas, but the standout feature is the wall of red
marble lions' head fountains. There is an outdoor hot tub as well, but it is
small. Room service hours are limited, and there is Wi-Fi, but it requires a daily fee per device.
