Located within 10 minutes walk of the Rodeo Drive/Via Rodea shopping district and between 20 minutes and 1 hour taxi ride from LAX depending on traffic this a terrific hotel to be based in

Attractive throughout and stafffed by really helpful and pleasant staff throughout. Danny, the Concierge, went out of his way to help us

The only tiny niggles we had were no coffee maker in the bedroom-the only hotel we stayed at in the US without one-in spite of the Concierge ordering one 2 days running it never arrived. The other niggle was over-attentive staff in the dining room-excellent food though

From the outside it is a very basic looking hotel but it has a great feel to it once you get inside. We stayed on the 8th floor, had a great room, very comfortable bed, nice bathroom with separate shower and large bath tub. The service was excellent. I used the salon to get my hair done and was very happy with it and it was not overpriced. The pool area was nice. My favorite was all the great photographs of classic movie stars. It really put a classy touch to everything. Of course there is a Trader Vics, how could you not like that? It is the perfect location for rodeo drive shopping. I would definitely stay here again.

Stayed here on a business trip in April
Loved the hotel - there were 13 of us staying in total, all found the hotel to be fine
Have stayed in many business hotels - but I would come back to this one on holiday as it had a fairly relaxed feeling to it (especially around the poolarea!)
Room was spacious, light and clean
Breakfasts were amazing - loved them, so much fresh fruit, gorgeous!
Ate in hotel after long flight, and again at poolside bar - both good
Consierge very helpful with dinner reservations and car organising etc
All I would say is as its a large hotel they have some HUGE functions going on, so whilst areas are friendly, be aware it can get very busy! (to give you an idea golden globes are here.... its big) + and mini bar is extortionate - watch out for the automated top thing which is REALLY sensitive - there is a starbucks just down the street if you want something!
Even chatted with Paul daniels during stay!

I frequently stay at Hilton properties and am a HHonors Gold VIP. After hearing good things about the Beverly Hilton figured I'd splash out a bit on a nice romantic hotel for my girlfriend and I at the start of our trip to LA.

When we arrived at the Beverly Hilton I must admit that I was a little surprised. I thought it'd be far more 'glam' than it was, but I guess the outside of the hotel isn't important. The lobby area was very nice indeed, with a large seating area in front of the reception desk.

When we checked in we were given a Tower room which I must admit was very disappointing indeed given the price paid. We did have a nice balcony though, so this was a nice feature. Having just got off an 11 hour flight my girlfriend wanted a bath, however when we got to the room we found no bath, only a shower area. Whilst this wasn't great, the shower was really very good and went some way to relieving the yucky feeling obtained during a long flight.

In general we found everything in the hotel room to be in good working order. It was also spotlessly clean and well maintained. The radio was tuned to a classical radio station which was a nice touch when entering the room - soothing music in the background really added to the ambience. The plasma TV in the room was also amazing!

After sorting ourselves out we decided to head to the pool area and visited the Trader Vic's bar. The drinks from the cocktail menu were hugely expensive ($15 each), but the pool setting was great. For our evening meal we visited Circa 55 - as with Trader Vic's the food was expensive and totally overpriced. However the quality was certainly good, although failed in every respect to live up to the prices charged.

To be honest I wouldn't return to the Beverly Hilton again. Whilst our stay was enjoyable and the staff very helpful and friendly, I just felt that we were being ripped off. I have stayed in far nicer Hilton properties that don’t charge through the nose like the Beverly Hilton does. I don’t mind paying if I feel that I’m getting something for my money. At the Beverly Hilton I just didn’t feel this was the case. The location of the hotel was poor. There are many good hotels in Beverly Hills and in future I think we'll be trying one of them instead of the Beverly Hilton as the location of the Beverly Hilton just doesn’t cut it.
