The Bar/Lounge at The Beverly Hills Hotel

"dining experience -- or just a martini -- the old-school vibe at the more upscale Polo Lounge can't be beat"

"Home to A-list celebs and studio dealmakers, the Lounge features live jazz on the patio and an extravagant afternoon tea"

"With its walls adorned with the hotel's famous banana-leaf motif, the main building is home to a luxury spa, the legendary Polo Lounge bar and restaurant, as well as the less-famous Fountain Coffee Room, an intimate, low-key diner still sporting its flouncy 1940s decor"

"Many a starlet has posed by the courtyard pool, where guests lounge in cabanas and enjoy "pop-up" treats throughout the day"

"Or take in the scene at the famous Polo Lounge, which still buzzes with handshakes and business deals, or the new Bar Nineteen12, which has turned into a place to party with the beautiful and affluent"

"Stop at the Polo Lounge for dinner (the McCarthy Salad is worth the splurge) or a cocktail and you might just witness a Hollywood heavyweight make a multimillion-dollar deal at a nearby table"

"The Polo Lounge attracts Hollywood executives; Bar Nineteen12, with views of the hotel’s 12 landscaped acres from its terrace, supplies martini ice pops, sorbets, and shots"

"For rejuvenation, try the property’s La Prairie spa, or post up on one of the green-and-white striped lounge chairs by the legendary pool"

"Drinks in the Polo Lounge, tanning by the poolside, and opulent comforts are all part of the unforgettable experience"

"Features marbled bathrooms, VCRs, jacuzzis and other such luxuries, as well as the famed Polo Lounge restaurant"
