A historic landmark, the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, Los Angeles, has been home to presidents, kings and Hollywood celebrities since it opened in 1923. (0606/CH).
Famed New York architects Schultze and Weaver designed the hotel in the Spanish-Italian Renaissance style to reflect the Castilian heritage of California.
The hotel offers elegantly furnished classic rooms. Standard king accommodations feature colour schemes of warm gold, cream and ivory accented by rich woods, plush draperies, stately furnishings, French shutters, and marbled bathrooms. Rooms feature high-speed Internet access, air conditioning, satellite TV, pay-per-view movies, work desk, iron and ironing board, hair dryer and tea/coffee-making facilities.
The hotel has three full-service restaurants.
The lobby and public areas of the hotel feature exquisite fresco artwork by Italian artist Giovanni Smeradi, of Vatican and White House fame, which captures the opulent style of the 1920s.
The hotel is located at the corner of Fifth and Grand, in the financial and cultural heart of downtown Los Angeles. The hotel is in close proximity to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Music Centre of Los Angeles, Staples Centre, Civic Centre, Dodger Stadium, shopping centres and fine restaurants.
