Get The Look: Beverly Hills Hotel
If the walls of the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel could talk, what a grand story they would tell. Since its build in 1912, the hotel has had the best seat in the house to watch the city come to life around it. Over the century, behind its tropical wall of 80-year-old palm trees and banana plants, it has also played host (and sometimes home) to an extensive list of celebrity guests that include royalty, politicians, and movie stars.
Be it Elizabeth Taylor honeymooning in bungalow number 5 six times, Katharine Hepburn jumping into the hotel pool fully clothed after playing tennis, or Zsa Zsa Gabor signing her first movie deal in the famous Polo Lounge – the hotel has been the scene of great events, parties, and secret trysts over the years.
Despite its modest, mission-style exterior, The Beverly Hills Hotel boasts a cool confidence when it comes to its interior. The rooms are worked in the hotel’s signature peachy pinks, greens, apricot, and yellow, oozing a laid-back glamour the Hollywood crowd loves. Its epicentre, the Polo Lounge, is done up in peach and salmon with deep carpets and green booths, pink tablecloths, and a sunny patio to talk talent over a long lunch.
Capture the inviting glamour and style of the hotel with The Home’s Beverly Hills custom range of cushions available this week. Escape to Paradise has produced the exclusive collection for The Home inspired by the shapes and shades of the Hollywood haunt such as Art Deco lines, tropical palm motifs, salmon shades, and dazzling gold foiling. Styling tip: patterns are an exciting injection, so think where the focus of the room should be and add pattern in this area with a beautiful rug, cushion or lamp shade.
