Then relax at the Beverly Hills Crowne Plaza where gracious and elegant accommodations await.

From world-class shopping on Rodeo Drive and boutique openings to family activities at the Sunday Farmers’ Market, concerts in the parks and Civic Center Plaza, Beverly Hills has an array of activities available for visitors to experience. Tours are available for Greystone Mansion or any of the city’s other parks, including the La Cienega Tennis Center. Beverly Hills was wealthy and famous long before it was discovered by the movie industry. At the beginning, fabled El Dorado was blessed with a commodity more precious in Southern California than jewels: water. The source of this fertility comprises three dramatic canyons: Franklin, Coldwater and Benedict. Moisture from the Southern California sky gathers on the hills and winds its way down to form streams flowing to the nexus of Beverly Drive and Sunset Boulevard. Beverly Hills enjoys a dry, Mediterranean-like climate. Very little rain, low humidity and lots of sunshine make the weather ideal. Average rainfall is 15 inches a year. Virtually no rain falls between May and October. Rodeo Drive is probably the single most famous, most prestigious shopping street on the planet, and it anchors a larger shopping district that is absolutely without equal. As you stroll Rodeo, you'll recognize the name of every single store...Prada, Escada, Gucci, Valentino, Armani, Versace, Dior, Cartier, Tiffany. Rodeo is a living theater of fashion, art and an endless parade of fascinating people from everywhere.
