The hype
Guests are obsessed with the floor-to-ceiling windows and the Jean-Georges dining, but many feel nickle-and-dimed by the exorbitant incidental costs.

Bestil hvis You want the newest, flashiest heavy-hitter in the 90210 zip code and don't mind paying extra to be seen.
Hvorfor folk elsker det
- Every single room has a private terrace with unobstructed views
- The rooftop pool deck is the ultimate LA power scene (when open)
- Service is hyper-attentive, with personal concierges assigned to every guest
Hurtig oversigt: It's a glitzy, Art Deco fortress of wealth that feels more like a private club than a hotel, but the price tag for 'extras' is borderline offensive.
Anmeldt af @aroundtheworldwithrbria: I stayed in a corner suite at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills and it was unforgettable. The rooftop pool deck offers the best views in the city, and the room felt like my own private mansion. If you want to feel like royalty in LA, this is the spot.

Reality check
Recent reviews from Jan 2026 cite service hiccups linked to labor disputes/strikes, including missed housekeeping and delayed room service.
- You need a balcony where you can actually sit and eat breakfast
- You drive a G-Wagon and want it parked front-and-center
- You prioritize a modern, airy aesthetic over old-school stuffy luxury
Renhed & Vedligeholdelse
9.2
- Housekeeping: Generally impeccable twice-daily service, though recent labor disputes (Jan 2026) caused some isolated complaints about missed turndowns.
- Bathroom hygiene: Pristine marble everywhere. No grout issues found in recent audits.
- Maintenance: Like new. The hotel is young (opened 2017) and aggressively maintained.
- Linens & towels: Plush, high-thread-count Italian linens. Towels are oversized and fluffy.
- Odors & scents: Signature 'white tea and thyme' scent in the lobby; rooms smell neutral and fresh.

Før du booker
Godt at vide
- The house car (often a Rolls Royce) is free for drops within a 3-mile radius, but it's first-come, first-served.
- The 'Destination Fee' includes a $15 daily F&B credit, but that won't even cover a coffee and croissant.
- Check-in is strictly 4:00 PM; early access is rarely granted without a fee due to high occupancy.
Hvad skal du pakke
- Designer sunglasses (mandatory for the rooftop)
- Dressy casual outfits (gym clothes in the lobby are a faux pas here)
Værelses-genie

“I would appreciate a North-facing room (Beverly Hills view) on a high floor (8th or above) to minimize street noise from Wilshire Blvd. Please avoid the rooms directly adjacent to the elevator bank.”

Insidertips
- ✨
The 'Lobby Lounge' has a secret off-menu burger that rivals the main restaurant's.
- ✨
Walk to the 'Cheese Store of Beverly Hills' for the best sandwich in town (The Domenico) instead of paying $40 for a hotel salad.
- ✨
If the rooftop is closed/full, the garden terrace on the 3rd floor is a quiet, overlooked gem for reading.
5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted
💡The 'City View' is actually just a view of the Century City office towers and traffic.
💡The elevators can be slow during peak dinner hours because of rooftop traffic.
💡You can hear the sirens from the local fire station frequently if your balcony door is cracked open.
💡The 'free' house car is almost never available when you actually need it—plan for Uber.
💡Room service adds a hefty service charge + delivery fee + expected tip, turning a burger into a $65 investment.
