About Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills, A Four Seasons Hotel
A cobblestone arrival drive lined with gas lanterns imported from an Edinburgh castle gives Beverly Wilshire an unusually theatrical entrance. Opened in 1928, the hotel pairs Italian Renaissance architecture and French neoclassical influences with a setting at Wilshire Boulevard and Rodeo Drive. Its 395 rooms and suites occupy the Wilshire and Beverly wings; refreshed accommodations include pastel-toned suites with separate living rooms and balconies overlooking the Hollywood Hills. Downstairs, Wolfgang Puck’s CUT serves steak and seafood in a dining room designed by Richard Meier. A Mediterranean-style outdoor pool and a spa finished with walnut and onyx give guests reasons to spend an afternoon at the hotel.

It was the January ’09 Grammys and at the Beverly Wilshire, that was when Wayne cleaned up and we posted there for seven or eight days and had a room there and posted there with the Wayne tour. I have video footage of us in the room making the records. There’s a cool picture of Drake standing in front of the curtain with a microphone and it’s right out of the hotel room.

The Beverly Wilshire is probably best known as the setting for much of the Julia Roberts and Richard Gere rom-com Pretty Woman, but this elegant Four Seasons property has a long and storied history besides that. Located in a prime spot in Beverly Hills at the intersection of Wilshire Boulevard and the shopping highlights of Rodeo Drive, both Elvis Presley and Warren Beatty have called it home and John Lennon hid out on the property during his “Lost Weekend”.
Michael Douglas
Michael continued to stray and, in the summer of 1995, Diandra reached her breaking point after a private investigator caught the star at the Beverly Wilshire hotel with yet another woman.
Mick Jagger
IN THE mid-Seventies, the Stones were about to embark on an Australian tour when Radio Times arranged that I should interview Mick Jagger in LA. ... So we located his hotel suite at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, and the most appalling animal sounds were coming from behind the door. We knocked, and he opened it in his underpants.
