Overview
A member of the esteemed Dorchester collection, Hotel Bel-Air offers Los Angeles visitors a taste of respite and romance within easy commuting distance of popular city sights (though, not much is within walking distance). Like its sister property, The Beverly Hills Hotel, this resort sprawls across 12 acres. Located in the Bel-Air Estates neighborhood, the luxury guesthouse projects an aura of 20th-century glam, with massive black and white portraits of Cher, Mick Jagger and Blondie by photographer Norman Seeff hanging in the on-site Bar & Lounge. Just off the lobby, even the public restroom is redone as a posh dressing room, giving bar and restaurant visitors a taste of what they're missing in the guest rooms. Fine Egyptian cotton linens, expansive terraces, lush gardens and an actual Swan Lake make Hotel Bel-Air better suited for relaxation seekers than meeting-making movers and shakers. Guests appreciate the property's quiet atmosphere and superb customer service. Meanwhile, the rooms and suites win visitors over with bright, airy decor and tech-savvy amenities like flat-screen TVs and in-room iPads. Also, the Hotel Bel-Air Spa and the outdoor pool ensure that travelers return home refreshed and rested.
