THE GET DOWN
The Bel–Air Hotel is everything you would imagine the Hollywood elite to be hanging at. The grounds are lush with well-manicured lawns, well-groomed trees, a stream, and of course… doves? Yes! All this and you haven’t even made it inside.
Once you hit the lobby, sit for a refreshment. In the summer there’s cucumber water and fresh squeezed lemonade and in the winter there’s cider and spiced cookies. Watch the interesting crowd come and go. It’s okay… even if you’re not a guest at the hotel.
Grant it, in the recent years, The Bel–Air hotel got a facelift, which took some of the old school charm out of it. However, if you haven’t been there yet, then you’ll appreciate the modern updates.
If you are thinking of going to the Bel-Air hotel for a fun hang, go right ahead. And if you’d like to dine in, then the open aired restaurant serving the cuisine of Wolfgang Puck will serve your needs.
The menu isn’t anything that will WOW you, but then again it doesn’t need to because the experience is all around.
The kids will enjoy running around the grounds, throwin’ a penny or two in the fountains, feeding the doves, or maybe even taking a nice cool walk along the shaded paths.
Whether an overnight guest or a curious adventurer visiting for the day, the staff at the Bel-Air Hotel will make you feel special.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
