We stay at Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills because its residential style and chic California vibe (mixed with a touch of Hollywood glamour) provide a relaxed, yet very luxe, stay in LA.

Gardens, terraces, and dining patios highlight sunny SoCal weather and feel-good living while interiors are brightened by Jeff Leatham’s jaw-dropping floral designs. Wellness options feature prominently on dining menus and via visiting experts the spa can arrange to treat mind and body. Opt for a room with cardio equipment or take advantage of helipad yoga to work off a decadent budino dessert at Culina, a personal favorite.

You’ll see all types of travelers from business to family—my daughter loves checking in—at this truly fantastic hotel. My detailed review, based on many stays, is below.

Delicious Four Seasons Los Angeles Dining

Dining at the Four Seasons means choosing from several dining options during your stay, including Culina Restaurant, Vinoteca Wine Bar, Cabana Restaurant, and Windows Lounge.

The hotel’s Executive Chef has led culinary teams from LA to New York City to London. The cooking style at the hotel is founded on a transformation of fresh ingredients into colorful mosaics of exquisite cuisine.

Culina

Love healthy breakfasts at Culina (a Four Seasons Preferred Partner perk)

Culina refers to the smoky vault where Romans produced their food. The rich, dark tones of Culina in the Four Seasons Los Angeles certainly recreate the atmosphere, making this an ideal place for a romantic Italian meal with mood lighting.

The award-winning eatery serves authentic Italian cuisine with an inventive twist for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ve eaten here for all three meals particularly love the healthy options at breakfast and semi crudo at dinner.

Vinoteca

This Italian-inspired wine bar serves authentic foods from Italy with special attention to seasonal ingredients. Signature dishes like classic spaghetti pair perfectly with suggestions from the extensive wine list. Vinoteca also has an espresso bar open every morning from 6:30 a.m. The kitchen is open for lunch and dinner every day.

Cabana Restaurant

At Cabana, you’ll enjoy the best that California has to offer, from locally sourced seafood to antioxidant-rich produce. Outdoor seating offers a chance to enjoy the fresh California air beside manicured gardens. Cabana stays open all day.

Windows Lounge

When the sun goes down, the party heats up in the stylish, sophisticated Windows Lounge. Locals and guests alike enjoy live music on weekends while sipping signature cocktails or hand-picked wines over shared plates.

In-Room Dining

Glamorous Outdoor Pool Deck

Nothing says Hollywood like quite sitting by the heated outdoor swimming pool soaking up the California sunshine. The Four Seasons Los Angeles has a saline pool on the fourth-floor terrace with an elevated whirlpool.

Cabanas and tropical plants (mixed with succulents, which we love) create an urban oasis with views of the surrounding city. The hotel regulates water temperatures between 79 and 81º F.

Poolside cabanas offer a bit of privacy and a break from the heat in between dips in the pool. The Four Seasons also offers customized poolside packages with add-ons like craft cocktails, Barton Perreira sunglasses, and poolside spa treatments.

Stay hydrated with fresh-pressed juices or cool down with ice cream, served daily. I love this pool deck.


Spa and Wellness to Enjoy

Amidst a bustling LA vacation, you can experience full-body relaxation at the Spa and Wellness center.

Spa and Nail Services

Open daily, the spa offers blissful massages, body treatments, facials, manicures and pedicures, and salon services.

Take advantage of the prestigious list of visiting wellness practitioners from naturopaths to reiki healers through the spa. Book treatments to help you look and feel your best such as the DNA Facial by Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Moy, which uses an OxyGeneo machine to exfoliate and revive skin.

For the complete relaxation experience, you can schedule a full afternoon of pampering by the pool with packages of massages and treatments.

Open-Air Fitness Center

While staying at the Four Seasons, you can work out with a view while hitting the treadmills in the open-air venue. Don’t worry, it can be closed off and heated in the rare case of inclement weather.

Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills also offers in-room fitness programs developed by Blue Clay Fitness that guests can access through the room or suite’s iPad 2.

Helipad Yoga Above the City

Escape from the stress of a daily routine with a once-in-a-lifetime yoga experience located on the hotel’s 17th-floor helipad.

While holding a downward-facing dog or an Acro yoga posture, you’ll take in breathtaking bird’s-eye views of Los Angeles, the Hollywood sign, downtown Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and the towers of Century City.

Book private sessions as well as group classes for up to 25 people. 


Fun Family Offerings

I personally find staying at Four Seasons Los Angeles pretty easy with kids in tow.

Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills ensures fun for all ages during your stay. The hotel’s concierge service is happy to arrange special family outings or reserve a babysitter for couples who want a little alone time together. 

The hotel provides welcome amenities for kids, baby bath toys, cribs, rollaway beds, child-sized bathrobes and slippers, and complimentary coloring books.

Kids under the age of 12 may also enjoy mani/pedis at the Spa’s Nail Suite. We enjoyed mother-daughter mani/pedis for my daughter’s 5th birthday a (long) while back.

The one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites provide ample room for families traveling with children to comfortably enjoy their vacation together.

The restaurants have children’s menus, and the in-room dining options include kid-friendly options. Have picky kids? You can customize dishes, too, so just ask.

The house car also goes to The Grove shopping mall. We have paired a stay here with American Girl Los Angeles visits many times.


The Adjacent Beverly Hills/Los Angeles Neighborhoods

Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills is located in a quiet residential neighborhood midway between downtown and the beach. Its ideal location and privacy make it a long-time favorite of celebrities, especially during awards season. 

Within roughly a mile radius of the hotel, you will find local attractions like Roberson Boulevard, Rodeo Drive, Beverly Gardens Park, and famous restaurants such as The Ivy and SUR Lounge.

The house car can take you further afield to LACMA and other attractions, subject to availability.
