Beverly Hills

From high school dramas to rooftop panoramas, Beverly Hills has long captured the imagination. We’re more enamoured by the latter it must be said – check the Kenwood Travel Beverly Hills hotels page for recommended hideaways like Viceroy L’Ermitage where top-floor pools afford views that sweep from Downtown to Hollywood. The very utterance of Beverly Hills conjures the glamour of its movie backdrops, designer shops and stylish residents. A California holiday that pitches up in this Los Angeles postcode had better be prepared to be wowed.

Luxury holidays to Beverly Hills

Luxury is evident in every corner of Beverly Hills. In the north east of the neighbourhood, Tudor revival mansions and manicured parks add a touch of history to the modern glitz. Make the trip up the Trousdale Estates and walk among Greystone Mansion & Gardens, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. And there are more mansions to admire south of Wiltshire Blvd in Beverly Hills along South Beverly Drive. Here grand houses inspire awe before making way for luxe boutiques and bistros.

The Flats, meanwhile, illustrates Beverly Hills’ luxury chops via a 70ft-wide tree-lined avenue designed by Wilbur David Cook (in turn influenced by preeminent architect Frederick Olmstead). And this iconic area of LA flexes its luxury appeal in the so-called Golden Triangle too: Rodeo Drive, ever synonymous with Beverly Hills, continues to draws tourists from around the world to its haute couture flagship stores and cordon bleu restaurants.

Great Reasons to Holiday in Beverly Hills

The family attractions – See the sights from a traditional Beverly Hills trolley ride; hike the adventurous trails through Franklin Canyon Park; create art with your pint-sized Picassos at a Color Me Mine party; and after all the fun grab a well-earned slice at the famous Mulberry Street Pizzeria.

The food – Kenwood Travel’s list of favourite restaurants in Beverly Hills is too long to mention here. But suffice to say Nerano, Mastro’s Somni, Madeo Ristorante and Freds at Barney’s New York are a good start. For Beverly Hills-specific food experiences, don’t miss Sunday breakfast at THE Blvd; the world’s first 24hr Cupcake ATM at Sprinkles Cupcakes; beer, bourbon & burgers at The Honor Bar; the Cheese Store Beverly Hills, and traditional, handmade confections at Edelweiss Chocolates.

The location – West of Downtown and Hollywood, Beverly Hills is well placed for getting out to the beach towns of Venice and Santa Monica. Fly-drive holidaymakers can hit the famous Pacific Coast Highway for mesmeric ocean views; a great day out. And if you’re looking further afield to enhance your fly-drive holiday, Beverly Hills is a great destination to incorporate stops in Las Vegas and even Hawaii.

Things to See & Do in Beverly Hills

Start the day with people watching and espressos at Urth Café before making Beverly Hills your own with a host of Kenwood-approved activities. If it’s a Sunday, Beverly Hills Farmer’s Market (9am – 1pm) is great for post-breakfast browsing, followed by afternoon tea at Beverly Hills Hotel.

Beverly Hills may not be as walkable as neighbouring West Hollywood, but they’ve made it easy to see the sights via tourist bus – the Movie Star Homes Tour is a real eye-opener; hop on to see how the other half live.

Flash the cash on Rodeo Drive (or Beverly Drive next door), one of the world’s most famous shopping streets, where street-wear’s cool kids rub shoulders with Tinseltown A-listers on the hunt for fashion’s latest must-have exclusives.

Leaf through a classic at Beverly Hills Public Library (including free parking), before stopping for tasty treats at Heritage Fine Wines and joining picnickers for an afternoon in the park on Sunset Ave. For even more ideas on things to see and do in Beverly Hills, grab your booklet of exclusive offers at the Beverly Hills Visitor centre.

The Weather in Beverly Hills

The California coast enjoys a warm climate year-round, and Beverly Hills is no different. Light winds from the Pacific reduce humidity, meaning the heat is dry rather than sticky. So getting out and enjoying the sights and sounds of Beverly Hills is a breeze. Winter months can bring intermittent rain, but even then, most days remain sun-kissed and bright.
