Everywhere you look when walking anywhere in the vicinity of the Beverly Hills hotel you will find a naturally colorful oasis filled with trees, plants, flowers and vegetation.  The skies are literally a bluer hue over the famed Pink Palace.  You can actually put this to the test.  Take a walk centrally around the gardens within the hotel and look up.  On a clear day you will see skies as vibrant and blue as an Alaskan Husky's eyes.  Then stroll down to the edge of the hotel where Sunset Boulevard begins and look up again.  The skies look more gray.  I recently spent a morning strolling the gardens of the Pink Palace and I left the hotel with such a sense of peace and calm.Beverly Hills Hotel9641 Sunset Boulevard Beverly Hills, CA 90210www.beverlyhillshotel.com
