Best Business Hotels 2009: America
SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, USA (scroll down for more)
This SLS has been given a $230 million facelift by designer Philippe Starck. He has filled the guest rooms with his furniture and created a retail concept where objets d’art are displayed in a series of free-standing vitrines. The rooms also have fully stocked bars and oversized soaking tubs with large showers. The place is so high-tech and wired that even pool cabanas come with plasma screen televisions.
Address: 465 South La Cienega Boulevard
Tel: 1.310 247 0400
Website: www.slshotel.com
Rates: From $389
Business amenities: Business centre with printer, fax and Mac laptops with PC capabilities; wireless and wired internet access ($13 per day); and complimentary car service within a two-mile radius.
Rooms: 297 rooms, including 61 suites. In-room wireless internet access ($13 per day), television, DVD player, Bose audio systems and iPod docking stations (preprogrammed iPods and iTouches are available to rent on request). Suites have in-room iMac computers.
Leisure: Ciel spa with six treatment rooms, a pool deck, steam rooms, a Technogym fitness centre and a hair salon; terrace garden; reflecting pool and plunge pool.
Restaurants: Award-winning Spanish chef José Andrés has created all restaurant and catering menus. The Bazaar restaurant is enormous, encompassing the Bar Centro for cocktails, Rojo Y Blanca for tapas-style dining and the Patisserie for delicate sweets. Tres in the lobby is smaller and much more intimate for all-day dining
