This L.A. hotel was just voted one of the best in the world

The swanky Hotel Bel-Air can officially add another accolade to its resume: The World's 50 Best Hotels 2024 just mentioned it as one of the top destinations across the globe—one of only four U.S. entries.

Landing at number 35, the destination is also home to a spa and wellness center, a gym and the high-end Restaurant at Hotel Bel-Air.

"In a city where youth and staying on top of all that is new reign supreme, it's rare that anything dating back to 1946 might still be in vogue, but that is the anomaly and the accomplishment of the Hotel Bel-Air," reads the ranking . "The 103-room property has a long history of luring an array of well-heeled visitors from around the globe, from locals looking for a weekend staycation to low-key travelers from abroad who flock to the resort in the summer months for an unparalleled escape."

Just a few months ago, Hotel Bel-Air and its iconic sister property, the Beverly Hills Hotel , received Michelin's most prestigious new awards: Michelin Keys , the equivalent of the organization's culinary stars, albeit directed at a city's most exciting hotels. Clearly, booking a staycation at the Hotel Bel-Air is one of the best things to do in Los Angeles these days.
