My wife and I had an very enjoyable stay at the Beverly Hilton. This hotel certainly wasn't cheap, but represented an excellent value considering the neighborhood and the competition.

Our stay coincided with preparations for the Golden Globes. We stayed for 4 nights and checked out the day before the Awards. By that time, the hotel was pretty much consumed by the hustle and bustle of setting up for the awards. I suppose that some may see this as a negative, but we came to LA to experience the glitz and glamour and found it fascinating. An added bonus was the ability, as hotel guests, to interact with celebrities as they came in to rehearse for the awards. We ended up meeting some of the biggest names in Hollywood.

The hotel faciities themselves are excellent. Its remarkable how they've kept the '50s style structure but updated the interior so thoroughly. As a Silver VIP member, we were upgraded to a junior suite. I wouldn't call it a true suite, but it was a spacious room. One glitch: I was actually booked on two seperate reservations, which I made the front desk aware of when I checked in. I still had to check out and change rooms. My second room was a corner room, a little bit smaller, but still a junior suite, so I certainly was not upset and appreciated the upgrade and the staff handled the situation very well.

As others have written, the room was immaculate, new, and featured plasma tvs. The bed was quite comfortable. The corner room had a smaller bathroom, but a huge balcony. The weather was cold so we really couldn't take advantage--but you could have had a dinner party out there, truly.

Amenities in the room were nice--Bose wave radio, good products in the bathroom.

My main complaint would be noise. Granted, we had a corner room, but that shouldn't make that much of a difference. We were facing Wilshire Blvd, and frankly, there was a lot of street noise. I was surprised insulation wasn't a bit better. A room on the other side would probably alleviate this problem, next time I would ask for one. Light sleepers should.

We ordered room service once. Of course it was over-priced (its an upscale hotel). Quality was good, but could have been hotter. Breakfast at Merv's was reasonable for a hotel of this caliber, arrived piping hot and was very good.

Most staff were friendly. Due to all the VIP's crawling around, there was a lot of security which was a little off-setting.

Self parking was a great option for us--you can valet park too, but we found it just as easy to self park--garage is attached to the hotel and you have more freedom and can run to the car if you forget something.

Location was a huge plus--the Beverly Hilton is in, obviously, a great section of town. Close to the freeway and Santa Monica, walkable to downtown Beverly Hills (but parking was ample so we drove), and about 15-20 minutes to West Hollywood. We drove to Burbank to see the Tonight Show at NBC and 2 and a Half Men being and the WB and even including traffic it was a reasonable drive.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Beverly Hilton. Its the quintessential 'LA' kind of a place--perfect for a special weekend away, or a business trip. The investment by the hotel's new owners really has paid off.

Clean, beautiful, organized and helpful staff, great drinks at the Polyneisian restaurant at the back, enjoyed them so much I forgot the name of the hotel restaurant. Would highly recommend it!! Also, we saw several celebrities in and out of the lobby and bar while we were there.

Stayed at the Beverly Hilton for 6 nights in Dec 2005. We read some of the Tripadvisor reviews before we booked our accommodation and we're agreed 100 % that it is a magnificent hotel. Room is small but very nice and the bed's very comfortable. Love the TV's in the room and bathroom and the free limo service (free within 1.5 miles from the hotel). The Hotel and location all in all is really excellent. Unfortunately we're just a bit disappointed with the customer service of some of the staff. When we checked-in the gentleman who served us seems to be rushing (served us not even 10 minutes) and did not explain the different amenities that the hotel has - it made me wonder if its because we were ordinarily dressed(we're from Australia with asian appearance and we travelled for more than 14 hours in the plane and as expected we looked worn out) and it was in our package that we have free continental breakfast everyday but he did not mentioned it and we end up calling the front desk/reception few times the next morning trying to figure out where they serve the breakfast and where's the Breakfast Lounge. We had 4 luggages but no one helped us carry them to our hotel room - there were 2 bell boys standing in front of the reception desk and they did not even offered to help us. Also, we thought it was pretty strange that whenever we greet some of the hotel staff like good morning or hello they often looked at us and had this weird look on their faces like who are we - is it uncommon for someone to greet them that they don't know whether to greet us back or not?. They're in the hospitality industry so they should be expected to greet and be greeted back by their hotel guests. Its not all negative on the customer svc, housekeeping's very good and so as the restaurant staff and the phone operator. If by chance that we visit LA again we will still consider The Beverly Hilton as the place to stay anyway our problem was the service of some of the staff which hopefully can always be improved.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Beverly Hilton in January. The check in process and everything was perfect. We had a standard room with a balcony and the room was comfortable and highly upgraded compared to other Hilton's I've stayed at. Only minus was there are no tubs only showers.
Great service. The valet even left Evian water in our car each time we picked it up. And we had a complimentary driver take/pick us up from dinner. The pool lacked luster but it's a great location and the price is right compared to the other hotels around.

Ok we had one little glitch. The lady at the front desk offered to sell me an upgrade to a better room eventhough I am a Diamond VIP with Hilton. Don't get me wrong the room was very nice but the offer started to eat at me. I said something 3 days into our stay to the manager. He agreed that it was wrong. Other than that the hotel is nice. Close to everything we wanted to see. One tip though, there is a MidWest Rental Car Company at the hotel but nothing stated about it in any Hotel info or web site. I will say that the Concierge was one of the best I have ever seen. Very helpful in planning our vacation with Dinners, Tour sign ups and the must see things to do while there. It's a little snobbish but hey, it's Beverly Hills. Trader Vic's very nice and a must if you like star watching with a good meal. The hotels breakfast Buffet was very good but Thanksgiving dinner not worth it. I am happy to answer any question you may have. Do enjoy your stay.
