SLS Beverly Hills

Ultra-mod, five-star elegance

Noteworthy for: The 297-room hotel has seven lifestyle suites with personal gym equipment and two hypoallergenic 'pure rooms'.
Word to the wise: The SLS is conveniently located within easy walking distance of The Beverly Center, The Grove, and boutique shopping on West Third Street and Rodeo Drive.

Ultra modern yet classically elegant, the SLS offers a fabulous escape from LA's crazy urban jungle. The Philippe Starck-designed rooms with free-standing bathtubs, in-house spa Ciel, and two rooftop pools surrounded by cabanas complete with minibars, TV and DVD players are just some of the things that set the SLS apart from your average five-star hotel.
Headed up by culinary director, chef José Andrés, the hotel also boasts an indoor piazza-style Spanish restaurant, The Bazaar, and all-white, comfort-food-with-a-twist eatery Tres. Light fare and cool cocktails are available poolside.
