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."

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."
