Close to Beverly Hills, the Westin Century Plaza Hotel and Spa stands across from a mall anchored by Bloomingdale's and Macy's, less than seven miles from the beach. Guests also are within seven miles from the swank shops of Rodeo Drive, museums, Hollywood and other sights synonymous with L.A.
At the Century Plaza, staff members in top hats and tails create a stylish first impression, while pools glow at night with jade, amethyst and turquoise lighting. Guests swim in a heated pool and soak up rays on a sundeck festooned with cabanas, umbrella-shaded tables and dozens of chaise lounges. The Century Plaza also serves as home to the 35,000-square-foot Spa Mystique, where guests can pamper themselves silly with Japanese furo baths, Korean scrubs, Ginger Wraps, Green Tea Body Masks, eucalyptus steam rooms, fitness center and calming rooms with herbal elixirs.

The Century Plaza's chic Breeze offers California cuisine, such as Pistachio-Crusted Halibut with Lobster Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Lamb Rack with Wild Mushroom Tart, along with sushi and saki. Guests also can check out the spa's Café Mystique or kick back on velvet sofas while sipping specialty martinis in the Lobby Lounge.

In addition to high-speed Internet access, Century Plaza accommodations include Westin Heavenly Beds with foot-thick pillowtop mattresses, down blankets, comforters, duvets and five pillows. Westin Heavenly Baths include dual showerheads, multiple spray options, thick bathrobes and oversized Brazilian towels. Fidos under 40 pounds will get the same treatment on Westin Heavenly Dog Beds. From their balconies, guests can view the mountains, the famous Hollywood sign or the L.A. skyline.

About 11 miles from LAX, the Westin Century Plaza Hotel and Spa has hosted U.S. presidents, actors and nationally recognized awards ceremonies. But primarily, guests are upscale business travelers and vacationers looking for style in the City of Angels.
