A posh hotel in Beverly Hills, California, the Beverly Hilton, turns 70 years old this year. The hotel, which features old-Hollywood touches and has long been known for its storied past, is celebrating the milestone with a upgrade that brings the centuries-old property up to date without forsaking its roots. As one of Beverly Hills’ most iconic hotels, the Beverly Hilton’s milestone is not only a celebration of its past but also a look toward an exciting future.
The Beverly Hilton is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year with a year-long calendar of special events and one-of-a-kind experiences to treat guests. The limited-edition Beverly Hilton Reserve will be a highlight, available only during this unique year. For those who want to jump into the action, there will be a Golden Globes Red Carpet Selfie Station in the hotel’s lobby for guests to take photos in front of a recreated red carpet display. A limited number of VIP guests will also have the exclusive opportunity to experience bespoke dining served in the decadent Presidential Suite, for an incomparable gourmet experience. These are just a few of the exclusive offerings that mirror the hotel’s storied tradition of accommodating celebrities and other members of the Fame and Fortune Set through the years.
Even as the anniversary festivities are nostalgic, the hotel is also poised for the future with a major renovation. The renovation of the Beverly Hilton is a small part of a larger development called One Beverly Hills, a project of Cain International, the hotel’s owners since 2018. This 17.5-acre development will unite the historic Beverly Hilton with the neighboring Waldorf Astoria Hotel. The overall project will feature more than 10 acres of beautiful botanical gardens, vibrant open areas and higher-end retail and dining.
A comprehensive renovation will bring change to nearly every facet of the Beverly Hilton. Its original features will be upgraded, re-imagined and preserved, so that the original mix of luxury and tradition will co-exist with today’s necessities that the modern traveler requires. It is going to take until 2027 for the transformation to be finished, the biggest redevelopment in the long history of the hotel as the buyers seek to turn it into a Sea Island of the Pacific.
One of the most thrilling parts of the One Beverly Hills development will be the debut of Aman’s first city hotel in North America. Aman has some of the luxury world’s most coveted and exclusive properties and this new West Coast destination is said to raise the game in Beverly Hills. The upcoming project will feature Aman-branded residences, a luxury hotel and a private Aman members club, where guests can enjoy the pinnacle of luxury and relaxation that they’ve yet to encounter.
The Beverly Hilton’s overhaul aims to refresh almost every inch of the hotel. Achieving Modern luxury and elegance will underpin the redesign of the guestrooms and suites to provide a revitalised stay experience for guests yet retaining the classic hotel’s charm. It will also bring new gastronomic havens that will invite gastronomes to explore a variety of fine dining experiences. A luxury retail experience will also be introduced, giving visitors the option for high-end shopping while enjoying the casino. The lobby will be completely redesigned to create a more modern space while still maintaining the hotel’s iconic look.
Among the hotel’s well-known features is the Aqua Star Pool that has been a staple of the Beverly Hilton from the day it opened. The pool celebrities flock to, where you can swim among stars. Additionally, the Aqua Star Pool will be fully refurbished, maintaining its seats laden in luxury for years to come. The pool house will be restored to a mix of old-world glamour and contemporary comfort.
Although undergoing renovations, The Beverly Hilton is open for business and hosting events and guests. The hotel plans to stay true to its commitment to continue delivering exceptional service at the luxury level but will become even more luxurious. Whether visitors are in town for a glitzy event or just to enjoy the warm California weather, the The Beverly Hilton is the spot to stay in Beverly Hills.
The Beverly Hilton’s renovation signals a new chapter for the property that integrates the hotel’s past with modern luxury. In 2027, when the hotel is finished, it is set to remain one of the premier luxury destinations in California and the US. The makeover will make Beverly Hilton a force to be reckoned with for decades to come, creating the same extraordinary hotel to be experienced by travelers from all over the world.
