Concierge "It was given a massive transformation a couple of years back, adding a spa with blue glass sinks and dramatic light effects."
Fodor's "At dinner, Hollywood's elite packs the hotel's coolly modern steak house, CUT, featuring steaks and sides by Wolfgang Puck and interiors by architect Richard Meier." Full review
OysterLuxury
"This iconic Beverly Hills hotel is a top luxury pick for business or leisure, families or romance." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Overlooking Rodeo Drive, this dignified 1928 hotel has hosted royalty many times and featured prominently in the 1990 movie Pretty Woman."
Time Out "The ornate detailing on this Four Seasons-operated gem...recalls 19th-century French splendor, but recent additions such as a Richard Meier-designed restaurant add 21st-century sophistication." Full review
Star Service "This deluxe hotel is evolving with the times, hosting celebrities and exclusive powwows, entertaining well-heeled business travelers, tourists and even HerbaLife conventions." Full review
BlackBook "Dignity and refinement—they roll out the red carpet. Not as liberal towards streetwalkers with hearts of gold in the lobby as Pretty Woman made us think, but Richard Gere certainly welcome."
Zagat4.5
""Impeccable" service from a "staff at the top of its game", plus "gorgeous" rooms and "elegant" suites with outstanding amenities."
Gayot "The lobby of this stately hotel, a landmark in Beverly Hills since 1928, is outfitted like a Regency/Directoire-era dream, with a trove of gorgeous antiques."
Lonely Planet Top Choice

Concierge "If old-school grandeur is what moves you, you'll get a lot of bang for your buck here."
Fodor's "One of downtown L.A.'s true treasures, the gilded 1923 Beaux Arts masterpiece exudes ambience and history." Full review
Lonely Planet "The gorgeous art-deco health club takes the work out of workout." Full review
Rough Guide "Neoclassical 1923 architecture combined with modern luxury, with a health club modelled on a Roman bathhouse, cherub-and-angel decor, and a view overlooking Pershing Square."
Time Out "Built in 1923, the Biltmore retains the Italian-Spanish renaissance elegance that once enticed such dignitaries as Winston Churchill and JFK." Full review
Star Service "Facing Pershing Square, next to the Los Angeles Library and across from the more intimate, contemporary Hilton Checkers, this is an architectural tour de force that is worth visiting." Full review
Gayot "Designed in Italian Renaissance style, the Millennium Biltmore opened to national acclaim in 1923 and in 1969 was designated a Historical Cultural Landmark."
BlackBook "Downtown heart, Grand façade and Mediterranean soul. Popular since '23 with the Hollywood crowd and tabloid murder buffs (look up Black Dahlia connection)."
Travel + Leisure "This octogenarian grande dame has never looked more beautiful—although, like many L.A. ladies, she’s had some work done." Full review
Not For Tourists "First lady of Downtown hotels, testament to LA's architectural heritage."
