"While the ongoing theme of Downtown L.A. may seem to be historic, this building is the most historic of all the historic. Opened in 1923, this hotel has served celebrities, presidents and dignitaries and was one of the first homes to the Academy Award Ceremony for the Oscars. It's also made a few cameos in our favorite episodes of Mad Men. Mainly, we just love the architecture. Covered in frescoes, murals tapestries, columns and oak-paneled walls (which we wish could talk), this hotel, bar and event center is a place we frequent to step back into history." - TypeEd
"Opened by H&H Brazilian Steakhouse owner Henrique Huyer and his wife Herica inside the historic Millennium Biltmore Hotel in February 2025, this concept is a departure from the steakhouse format with a Rio de Janeiro-style "fusion" menu. On the menu are truffle fondue, pão de queijo, Brazilian-style sushi, filet mignon blended with four cheeses, and grilled branzino with shrimp enchiladas. The interior is designed to make diners feel like they’re on a Brazilian beach, with laidback vibes, cabana-like booths, and a ring of rattan poolside modular sofas and chairs at the center of the room. Evenings are rounded out with bottles from an international wine and beer list and caipirinha cocktails." - Mona Holmes
"With its Moorish carved-wood ceilings, marble fountain, and breathtaking Baroque stairwell, the Rendezvous Court at the historic Millennium Biltmore is quite the place to sip tea and nosh on finger sandwiches. Service is offered every Saturday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. for $124 per person and includes a glass of sparkling wine for those 21 and up. Reservations are available here." - Cathy Chaplin
"A hotel in downtown Los Angeles used for interior scenes to replicate the feel of The Breakers."
"With its Moorish carved-wood ceilings, marble fountain, and breathtaking Baroque stairwell, the Rendezvous Court at the historic Millennium Biltmore is quite the place to sip tea and nosh on finger sandwiches. Following a pandemic-related pause, the hotel is resuming tea service on select weekends throughout the year: December 30, January 6, 13, 20, and 27, and February 3, 10, 17, and 24. Reservations are available here." - Cathy Chaplin
