THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL, SUNSET BOULEVARD

Lovingly called the ‘Pink Palace’, this iconic hideaway with its palm trees, bubblegumpink walls, candy striped pool beds and lush gardens is the ultimate beacon of vintage Hollywood glamour. Known for its seamless service and privacy, it definitely suited the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, who was known to have had six of her eight honeymoons at the hotel; Faye Dunaway learnt how to swim in their pool; Fred Astaire used to lounge by the pool with a book and naturally, the cream of Hollywood’s crop has enjoyed much shut-eye here too. The moment you pass the iconic signage, you will feel like a celebrity.
