LOS ANGELES
W Hotels Worldwide, part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., finalized the completion of the $25 million renovation of W Los Angeles – West Beverly Hills, formerly known as W Los Angeles – Westwood.
Nestled between the foothills of Beverly Hills and Bel-Air, while just minutes from Los Angeles' Sunset Boulevard and the beaches of Santa Monica, the transformation creates new spaces and innovative dining concepts, including a new destination restaurant, STK, through a partnership with The ONE Group which is scheduled to open this summer. STK will also provide an updated menu concept at WET, the lushly landscaped ground-level pool featuring California-style cabanas.
Drawing inspiration from the iconic bungalows of Beverly Hills, W Los Angeles – West Beverly Hills has unveiled 297 newly re-imagined suites, including an Extreme WOW suite (the W brand's take on the Presidential Suite) that comes equipped with an intimate screening room.
Fresh and contemporary in décor while maintaining a bold and modern design, each suite is detailed with sleek sectional sofas and sophisticated lighting, along with louvered windows and filtered light.
Beneath an artistic canopy of floating back lit sculptures that seamlessly transition from day to night, guests are welcomed into the signature W Living Room (the W take on the staid hotel lobby) with vibrant pulsating lights that sync with the beat from the DJ. Located within a hidden alcove and adjacent to the Living Room Bar, the Oasis is the heart of the redesigned Living Room and features a stunning 12 foot water wall, reflecting ever-changing projections and further luring guests inside of the W experience.
W Los Angeles – West Beverly Hills features refreshed event spaces that can host press junkets, weddings, conferences, meetings and other events; these include a studio with capacity for about 90 reception-style and a terrace able to host approximately 100 attendees. The 7,000-square-foot Bliss spa features 10 treatment rooms, movie-while-you-manicure nail stations, luxe men's and women's lounges.
The hotel also offers Rendition – a new live music series taking place the last Thursday of every month.
