The Beverly Hills Hotel underwent a meticulous restoration of all 208 bedrooms and suites, while honoring and respecting its great heritage. In 2016, the restoration began in all 23 bungalows and is set to be completed by 2018. Bungalow Number 5 was recently restored and completed to honor Elizabeth Taylor, who spent six of her eight honeymoons at the bungalow. Exquisitely decorated, Bungalow Number 5 ref lects Taylor's temperament –lots of blues and golds—and features its own private pool and interior décor that is cozy and elegant. A few other notable Bungalows include: Bungalow Number 7, which was Marilyn Monroe's favorite, and is where she frequently stayed with Joe DiMaggio. And Bungalow Number 10, where Lauren Bacall lived while filming Designing Woman at the hotel with Gregory Peck. Onsite you'll find the legendary Polo Lounge, considered Los Angeles' "epicenter of power dining," since it's been a favorite spot for Hollywood stars and deal-makers for decades. The Polo Lounge has held court to personalities like Humphrey Bogart, Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin, where endless anecdotes have taken place. Today, it continues to be a hotspot because of its special connection to Hollywood's Golden Era. The Fountain Room Café is a 19-seat vintage soda fountain dating back to the 1940s. Relaxed and cozy, it's the perfect place for coffee/tea time, a snack, or to dine. The Beverly Hills Hotel honors its customers with exceptional standards of service, comfort, and heritage. This is the ultimate destination for those seeking good living, charm, and elegance.
