The Peninsula Beverly Hills

We were looking for a place in Beverly Hills or Bel Air to spend our last three nights of our Californian tour to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We love the Beverly Hills Hotel and the Bel Air, but I do like to try somewhere different (FOMO). We had been here before for breakfast and due to its location right in the centre of Beverly Hills, decided to go here. A few days before our arrival the hotel contacted me requesting some additional details to make our stay more personalised. When we arrived they parked our car and took care of our luggage. The check in took a little time, but I believe they were finalising some touches in the room, We were given room 211, which is up a few stairs from reception. As soon as we entered the room we could see some really special touches about the fruit bowl, like dipped strawberries and monogramed pillows. The room was very spacious, no particular view, but a lovely bathroom. Modern and classic at the same time, if that is even possible. We had some breakfast credit within the room rate and ate at the rooftop restaurant beside the pool every day. The food was fantastic, particularly the granola. The juices were freshly squeezed. The staff here were excellent. The same goes for the pool, which we also used every day. It is relatively small, and on the one day where we couldn't get loungers in the shade, they gave us a complimentary cabana. The only issues we had were that on one occasion someone was playing their music through a speaker and on another occasion, someone was recording influencer type videos in the hot tub. We ordered room service one night as we didn't want to go out for dinner. We opted to share the cheeseboard with wine and it was perfect. We noticed that the hotel has a Rolls Royce Ghost to ferry the guests around in, so one evening we took it over to Rodeo Drive. That was pretty cool. They really went above and beyond on all levels to make our stay memorable.

From start to finish, our afternoon at The Peninsula Beverly Hills spa was absolutely wonderful. Imani at the reception greeted us with such warmth and professionalism instantly making us feel welcome. Then Irene and Farah, the nail technicians, were fabulous skilled attentive, and made the experience feel truly luxurious . Finally but not forgotten Derek, server with that beautiful warm smile brought us a beautiful glass of champagne hooray and kudos to all who helped make our afternoon special Thank You Highly recommend

Banker who booked a trust client into the hotel when it was newly opened in 1991/2. Gave them her address and relayed she had a wheat allergy. Hotel made no accommodation for her wheat allergy. When I requested to cut through the garden to go to my office on the next block, arrogantly informed the garden was for villa guests only. Visited acquaintance in one of the villas - ridiculously over swathed in fabric. As someone who pleasure traveled four continents by age sixteen, and stayed in palace hotels, I know how things are done, this place wasn't it. Never booked another trust client here. Will give them that the lobby living room was beautiful and The Belvedere restaurant had great food, but that's it.

Listen up — I’ve been around the block a few times. From Bayonne to Vegas, London to Cancun, I’ve stayed in some fancy places. But The Peninsula Beverly Hills? That joint just walked in and blew everything else outta the water. You pull up, and right away you know you’re dealin’ with a different league. The valet’s crisp, the lobby’s like a palace, and the scent in the air? Pure class. No cheap cologne here — this is the real deal. Rooms? Spacious like a penthouse, decked out with every comfort you didn’t even know you wanted. Bed so soft, you forget the world exists. The staff? Attentive without hoverin’—you feel respected, not stalked. And the rooftop pool? Forget about it. Views that make you wanna drop a hundred grand just to soak it all in. I brought Gionna, and even she was speechless — and that’s rare.

Everything was perfect from the moment we checked in until we checked out. The entire staff at the Peninsula went above and beyond to make sure our stay was a success. The employees at the reception desk were just as wonderful as the doormen and valet. It was almost too good to be true. Everyone was so genuinely attentive and very professional at the Peninsula. Our room was very clean. Many times as guests you have to accept that things aren't perfect, even in five star hotels but not at the Peninsula. Our room and all throughout the Peninsula, everything was super clean. They take luxury and five stars to another level. What stood out was that during our entire stay we've never seen a cleaning cart in the hallway, which never bothered us in other hotels but it added to the luxury feel at the Peninsula and the hallways are so much prettier without those carts standing around. In general the housekeeping is very detail oriented but barely noticeable. They offer turndown service which is common in luxury hotels but not always done in such a subtle way they do it at this hotel. The pool, the room, the restaurants, the facilities were all fabulous. The complimentary car service was awesome! Max is the best! We’re looking forward to our next stay!
