Los Angeles luxury hotel to re-open

The iconic Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angles will re-open in October after 24 months of extensive refurbishment and redesign.

Part of the Dorchester Collection, which includes the nearby Beverly Hills Hotel, and The Dorchester and 45 Park Lane in London, it will offer 103 guestrooms and suites, featuring 12 new suites, built into the hillside offering sweeping canyon views, expansive sliding glass walls and spacious decks with private spa pools.  There will also be seven individually designed speciality suites including the famed Grace Kelly Suite and a new Presidential Suite with 6,775sq ft of indoor and outdoor living space, offering private dining for 10, a chef's kitchen and a private pool.

New to the hotel is a 12,000sq ft Spanish mission style structure featuring a new bell tower, fitness studio, three unique ‘Loft guestrooms’ and a brand new 4,134sq ft Spa by La Prairie, set to be the biggest in LA.

All food and beverage operations will be overseen by Wolfgang Puck and the Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group.  The restaurant, Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air, will focus on modern Californian cuisine with European and Mediterranean influences. www.hotelbelair.com
