Built on the former site of the iconic 20th Century Studios backlot, the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel opened its doors in 1966 and has served as the backdrop for several historic moments. From the Beatles’ massive win at 10th annual Grammy Awards to Nixon’s presidential state dinner honoring the Apollo 11 expedition, the hotel was proclaimed as, “The Hotel of the Future.” Once the preferred place of stay for President Ronald Regan as well as many other political dignitaries—the central location, 5-star rating and overall luxurious appeal are what keep guests returning year after year.

Since undergoing a tremendous renovation to the tune of $2.5B, the hotel has once again become a premiere destination for entertainment elite and several of the most popular event productions including the Emmys, Grammys and more. Now equipped with 400 spacious guest rooms that were designed by Yabu Pushelberg, a 14,000-square-foot spa, a renowned Brasserie and 24,000 square-feet of private event space (one of the largest ballrooms in L.A)—the Fairmont Century Plaza is a true oasis in the bustling city where business and Hollywood convene.

And while the world-class dining and tranquil rooms are reason enough to keep you inside the hotel’s walls, the hotel’s Forbes rated 5-star spa is a sanctuary you won’t want to escape. Lined with a rare mix of marble, limestone, onyx and more, the flagship spa features nine treatment rooms including aromatherapy steam rooms, a Himalayan salt room, sanarium and Hammam, alongside a Technogym fitness center.
