As the holiday season approaches, the renowned Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills is rolling out a series of luxurious and festive experiences for guests of all ages.
Nestled on the iconic palm-lined Doheny Drive, the hotel is set to offer everything from indulgent dining and sophisticated décor to an exciting new speakeasy experience inspired by the glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age. The celebration is designed to create unforgettable moments for families, couples, and anyone seeking an upscale holiday escape.
One of the season’s most intriguing offerings is a Hollywood-inspired speakeasy experience at “Veil & Velvet,” running from December 1, 2024, through March 3, 2025. This chic transformation of the hotel’s bar, often referred to as Hollywood’s living room, evokes the charm of vintage piano bars and exclusive private clubs.
With its dark wood finishes, plush leather seating, and rich velvet accents, the space promises an atmosphere of timeless allure. The menu is an indulgent take on American classics, featuring dishes such as crispy chicken bites with parmesan mousse and truffle, caviar with sea urchin, and an extravagant wagyu burger.
Complementing these dishes are iconic cocktails like the Manhattan and Vesper Martini, alongside rare wines, whiskeys, and Champagnes. To elevate the experience, the venue will also offer live cigar rolling, on-demand caviar service, and a roving Martini cart, capturing the elegance of classic Hollywood in every detail.
For those looking to celebrate with gourmet feasts, the hotel’s Executive Chef, Jesus Medina, has curated a series of holiday dining events that blend tradition with a contemporary twist.
This includes a lavish Thanksgiving Brunch Buffet, an elegant Christmas Eve dinner, a festive Christmas Day Brunch Buffet, and an extravagant New Year’s Eve dinner, all served at Culina Ristorante & Caffè. Each meal is enhanced by the creative touch of new Executive Pastry Chef Riccardo Menicucci, promising seasonal ingredients, artisanal flavors, and decadent desserts.
The Thanksgiving Brunch Buffet on November 28 will offer a variety of breakfast favorites like made-to-order omelets, avocado toast, and waffles, alongside a raw bar with Dungeness crab and oysters.
A live carving station will feature roasted turkey, porchetta, and prime rib, complemented by artisanal pizzettas and an array of desserts, including a gelato bar and donut wall.
For Christmas Eve, guests can savor an à la carte menu with festive dishes like tuna carpaccio, squid ink spaghetti with sea urchin, and a 24 oz bone-in ribeye. The following day, Christmas Brunch will continue the celebration with breakfast classics, seafood, sushi, and a carving station serving turkey, prime rib, and ham, finishing with a sweet selection of desserts including donuts and gelato.
On New Year’s Eve, Culina will offer a luxurious five-course meal, starting with caviar-topped potato tartlets and progressing through scallop crudo and wagyu striploin. For those attending the second seating, the evening will continue with a Great Gatsby-themed party at Veil & Velvet, complete with flapper-inspired décor, live jazz, and a midnight Champagne toast.
Families are also invited to join in the festive fun with activities designed for all ages. The Candy Cane Clubhouse, a dedicated space for children, will offer gingerbread house decorating, snowman building, and opportunities to write letters to Santa.
The whole family can enjoy holiday traditions such as menorah lighting ceremonies, Christmas carols performed by a local choir, and even a light dusting of snow on the front drive to add to the magical atmosphere.
The hotel’s renowned celebrity floral designer, Jeff Leatham, will be creating a spectacular holiday-themed floral installation in the lobby, setting the tone for a visually stunning experience.
Guests will also be treated to complimentary seasonal goodies from a holiday trolley, offering delights like hot cocoa, apple cider, roasted chestnuts, and eggnog throughout December.
For those in need of relaxation, the hotel’s refreshed Spa is offering seasonal treatments such as the Organic Peppermint Age-Defying Body Scrub. This hydrating treatment combines the invigorating scent of peppermint with a mixture of sugar and salt to exfoliate the skin, leaving guests feeling rejuvenated and holiday-ready.
“We’re excited to offer a wide range of festive experiences that celebrate the magic of the season,” said David Wilkie, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills. “From our glamorous speakeasy to family-friendly activities, we’ve created something for everyone to enjoy.”
