The Maybourne Beverly Hills vs Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills
Priced on the same night, 2026-10-10: Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills is $188 a night less. They are 1.2 km apart.

The honest take
Book the Maybourne Beverly Hills if budget allows: it edges Waldorf Astoria on guest rating (9.6 vs 9.0) and has a rooftop pool the Waldorf lacks, for roughly $167 more a night. The Waldorf Astoria is the better value pick at $883, still a genuine five-star with pool, hot tub and free bike rentals, a mile away on Wilshire near LACMA. Both sit in Beverly Hills proper, so the difference is really about which building and which street you want to wake up on.
The look and the feel
The Maybourne Beverly Hills
This is the old Regent Beverly Wilshire annex site reborn under the Maybourne Group, the same people behind Claridge's, and it shows in the restraint: pale stone, brass detailing, a lobby that keeps its voice down. The Terrace looks over Beverly Canon Gardens, all clipped hedges and Californian light, and the Maybourne Bar has the low, clubby feel the group does well in London. Rooms lean neutral and tailored rather than showy, Frette robes and a spa with sauna and hot tub. The crowd is industry and money that doesn't need to announce itself.
Design-conscious guests who want a quieter, more architecturally considered five-star experience in the heart of Beverly Hills.
Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills
The Waldorf Astoria brand brings its usual mid-century polish to Wilshire Boulevard, all marble lobby floors and gold fixtures, a look aimed squarely at guests who want the name recognition of the label. Rooms are described as elegant with flat-screen TVs and some private balconies, which reads more conventional than distinctive. The outdoor pool and terrace are the social heart, with free bike rentals suggesting a hotel that expects you to actually leave and explore LACMA and the museum row nearby. It's polished and comfortable rather than atmospheric.
Guests who want reliable five-star comfort and a strong location near LACMA without paying Maybourne prices.
At $883 versus $1,050, the Waldorf gives up the rooftop pool that the Maybourne has, along with a notch of guest rating and the specific pedigree of Maybourne-brand interiors.
The Maybourne is the more considered space to actually sit in, its Claridge's-adjacent restraint and canyon garden views doing more for the senses than the Waldorf's competent but generic five-star polish.

“unique charm woven into every design detail”
We stayed here in March 2023, and this hotel is a classic Waldorf Astoria property with unique charm woven into every design detail. We stayed in a corner suite, and the hotel thoughtfully welcomed us with chocolate-covered strawberries. Their shuttle service made dining and shopping around Beverly Hills super convenient. We truly loved every moment of our stay!
