Given that the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza is adjacent to Beverly Hills, it’s no wonder that it resonates star power. This glitzy contemporary hotel is situated on 7 acres dotted with reflecting pools and lush tropical plants. All guest rooms have balconies with views of the Los Angeles cityscape and the tree-lined boulevards of Beverly Hills. The accommodations are styled handsomely with Asian decorative objects and warm tones, while leather headboards and striking light fixtures enhance the contemporary feel. Asian influences abound at Spa Mystique, from the feng shui design principles used in the 27 treatment rooms and 4 outdoor cabanas to the popular treatments on the menu. Surrounded by manicured grounds, the heated outdoor pool provides yet another urban oasis. All tastes are suited at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza, whether at the signature Breeze Restaurant or at the casual and light alternatives of the Lobby Court.
