Los Angeles, California – Reported by Elite Traveler, the Private Jet Lifestyle Magazine
The Beverly Hills Hotel will debut two ultra-luxe, residential-style “Presidential Bungalows,” offering the ultimate accommodations at Dorchester Collection’s “Pink Palace.” Carefully nestled within 12 lush, landscaped acres of banana leaves, palm trees and perfectly manicured gardens, the new Presidential Bungalows will be the largest, most prestigious suites in Los Angeles with more than 5,500 square feet of living space indoors and out. Reservations can be booked now for arrival beginning on February 15, 2011 for the first new Bungalow. The second Bungalow will be available as of March 2011. Rates range from $9,000 to $12,000 per night. Leading the first additions to the landmark hotel grounds since renowned architect Paul Williams added the Crescent Wing over half a decade ago, Rottet Studio of Los Angeles drew inspiration from the sought-after original Bungalows, casting a modern eye on traditional design to create a “new Beverly Hills” experience that updates the historic Mediterranean character of the hotel and grounds. The Presidential Bungalows resemble individual homes set in the most prestigious residential neighborhood of Beverly Hills, with indoor living opening to the outdoors while assuring absolute privacy.Wrapped in the seclusion of The Beverly Hills Hotel, each Presidential Bungalow is a home away from home in classic pink stucco with its own private entrance; a Great Room with dining room and chicly furnished living room; a professional kitchen; custom-designed furnishings and beautifully collected pieces from the 1920s to modern day; three bedrooms with luxurious baths featuring free-standing tubs, steam showers and vanities; and, in the timeless Hollywood tradition, a limestone fireplace in every room. Beautiful gardens surround each bungalow with outdoor spaces with private lap pool, fireplace, dining area with nighttime illumination, entertainment systems, exercise areas, courtyards, and the only private outdoor showers in Los Angeles.
