Beverly Hilton Welcomes Waldorf Astoria to Beverly Hills
The longtime Beverly Hills landmark is getting a makeover. That’s right. The Beverly Hilton, proudly situated on the corner of Wilshire and Santa Monica Boulevards, has announced plans to welcome the first West Coast Waldorf-Astoria hotel as part of its nine-acre hotel property. An extension of Manhattan’s legendary art deco hotel, the new hotel will be the first Waldorf-Astoria property under the new brand, and is part of a $500 million investment to revitalize the Beverly Hilton. (After all, even the most legendary and glamorous LA ladies require touch-ups as they age…) The 120 room Waldorf-Astoria will be designed by Gwathmey, Siegal and Associates with contemporary architecture celebrating the city’s luxury lifestyle. Together, both hotels will offer spacious gardens, a public art collection, new luxury residences, a destination pool area, and upgraded conference center. They’re promising a one-of-a-kind hotel property– two singular and separate hotel experiences in one location– that is “unmatched in its diverse offerings, services and amenities for guests and residents of Beverly Hills.” Look out, 90210.
