SIXTY Beverly Hills

About SIXTY Beverly Hills

The SIXTY group continues its westward expansion with this Beverly Hills outpost, built from the bones of a Sixties-era chain motel on Wilshire Boulevard. Not that you’d notice — if the SIXTY is retro, it’s retro of the Seventies chocolate-leather variety, rather than another revival of the mid-century motel. It’s a sexy, dark-toned and masculine look, one that works well for a hotel like the SIXTY, where the emphasis is less on tucking in for a night’s sleep (any old budget chain can manage that) and more on dining, drinking and entertaining, not to mention shopping — you’re just a few blocks from the famed shopping district around Rodeo Drive. The nightlife begins at Caulfield’s, a restaurant with a charmingly split personality. The dining room and bar are equal parts industrial design and Art Deco aesthetics, while the menu combines classic steakhouse fare with lighter California-style cuisine. Somehow it all comes together beautifully. The rooftop, meanwhile, is home to an open-air poolside lounge and bar called ABH, for Above Beverly Hills, a nightspot whose guests-only policy means no scene and no velvet rope. Of course the rooms are no afterthought — they’re swanky and comfortable, if not quite scaling the heights of luxury, and the top-shelf details don’t hurt either, including REN bath products, Sferra linens, and minibar snacks by Dean and DeLuca. How to get there: SIXTY Beverly Hills is approximately a 30-minute drive from Los Angeles International Airport, although the trip can take over an hour in traffic. Valet parking is available (charges apply).
