History Refreshed
Since opening in 1928, Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills (A Four Seasons Hotel) has occupied an essential role in Hollywood’s social history. Then the tallest building in Los Angeles, our nine-storey hotel built of Tuscan stone and Carrara marble was an instant hit with the roaring '20s set. Over the years, our lobbies and lounges have left a lasting imprint on popular culture, from the Copa nightclub of the 1940s to Entourage filmings today. And while we’ve invested millions to modernize our interiors, certain details remain. Wrought-iron entrance gates, a cobblestone carriageway and canary yellow window awnings endure as icons, inseparable from Hollywood itself.
