SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills

A star was born when SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills opened in fall 2008 as an entirely new paradigm for a luxury hotel. Created by some of the brightest talents on theplanet today, including noted designer Philippe Starck and culinary innovator José Andrés, SLS aims to surprise, soothe, excite, and enchant its guests—a fitting philosophy for a hotel at the heart of Los Angeles, entertainment capital of the world.

Guests find places to suit their mood at any time of day or night. At The Bazaar, a multipurpose space devoted to an array of international new wave dining choices, the visionary retailer Moss arranged glass cabinets inspired by the grand hotels of Europe, filled with treasures reminiscent of fantastic journeys—birds, painted glass, and travel mementos such as bicycles and vintage luggage. Designed as a spacious loft, the hotel lobby resembles a private club and features individual lounge areas for check-in, a bar, and additional spaces for dining.

All 297 rooms and suites embody pure sophistication with their posh bedding, 40-inch flatscreen TVs, and host of personalized indulgences. Guests enjoy first-class service whether luxuriating in private, at the Ciel Spa, sipping libations at the pool, sampling the eclectic dining experiences, or joining colleagues for meetings of the mind. Gathering spaces include a fabulous ballroom, meeting rooms, private dining rooms, terraces, and poolside cabanas for receptions of up to 25. There are no packages available at this time. There are no hot dates at this time. Posted 14 Mar, 2011 by Emily Bernstein Ciel Spa SALLY HERSHBERGER STYLE STUDIO AT SLS HOTEL AT BEVERLY HILLS

212.625.3500 Posted 26 May, 2009 by Concierge Elite SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Debuts the First "Ciel - Spa at SLS" Featuring Unique Treatments, Intuitive Service and Philippe Starck Design

(Los Angeles, CA - Spring 2009) - SBE's SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills, a Luxury Collection Hotel, officially debuts its own unique spa concept, the Philippe Starck-designed Ciel - Spa at SLS. The 5,000- square-foot, full-service spa and salon is a pampering retreat for Angelenos and hotel guests alike, providing the perfect complement to the SLS experience, which offers a new paradigm in luxury hospitality. SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills is part of The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts, a glittering ensemble of more than 69 of the world's finest hotels and resorts in more than 26 countries in spectacular destinations around the world.

"The concept of Ciel - Spa at SLS was a natural and organic evolution of the SLS Hotels brand," said Arash Azarbarzin, President, Hotels at SBE. "We wanted to create a destination that would transcend the traditional boundaries of what a spa should be. To us, a spa can be a social gathering place for friends, an exclusive private club and a lounge experience full of surprises. A spa can and should be all of these things, while still maintaining that sense of luxury, serenity and pampering. That is why we created Ciel."

Designed by Starck with an unerring eye for luxury, comfort and state-of-the-art technology, Ciel emphasizes highly intuitive and personalized service in a soothing yet playful setting. Evocative of a celestial dreamscape, guests will feel relaxed and at ease among the warm white tones and billowing curtains, while delightful discoveries surprise throughout the space. The co-ed lounge will serve as an ideal place to relax and socialize both pre- and post-spa experience. Refreshing and healthy savories will be offered in the lounge, created by acclaimed chef José Andrés exclusively for Ciel. Ranging from spa tapas like Josè Andrès gazpacho and watermelon-tomato seed skewers to decadent cava mimosas and chocolate-strawberry pipettes, spa fare at Ciel will be far from commonplace.

The spa rooms at Ciel will be unique environments equipped with music, lighting and technology options that allow spa therapists to set the mood for each treatment and guest preference. Each spa room will be an intimate haven equipped with luxuries like an experience shower and armchairs for foot bath rituals, as well as iPod docking stations, allowing guests to personalize the soundtrack of their massage experience, and custom spa beds with Acoustic Sound Resonance Therapy, allowing a symphony of scents and sounds to resonate throughout the entire body. Among the various spa rooms, two luxurious couples' suites will top the list, with one featuring side-by-side massage tables and Philippe Starck-designed soaking tubs and the other designed for decadent body treatments, featuring side-by-side treatment tables and an experience shower for two.

Offering a full menu of traditional, innovative and signature services, Ciel provides a highly personalized guest experience complete with individual spa valets and concierges, professional skincare consultants and a superlative team of spa therapists. The dynamic menu of spa services is filled with ritual and individual choice, including a selection of custom aromatherapy blends, results-oriented facials, rejuvenating body treatments and massage therapies that lead guests through a process of rediscovery and renewal. Ciel signature treatments include diverse choices, from a Soul to Soul synchronized, intimate massage for two to a Revive treatment for the frequent jet-setter to an Organic Sunless Tan for a natural, red carpet-worthy glow.

A partnership agreement between Ciel and acclaimed hair guru, Cristophe, allows guests of Ciel exclusive salon and styling services from an icon in sophisticated and innovative haircare. Additional amenities at Ciel include a private women's serenity alcove and locker rooms with steam and experience showers. Full massage and treatment services will be available in SLS guestrooms as well as in private cabanas at the pool deck.

The boutique product lines for Ciel rate among the latest and most buzz worthy cult favorites on the market. All massage, aromatherapy and body treatment products utilize the natural products of Aromapothecary, while skincare specialists use Ling skincare products and Ageless Aesthetics technology for state-of-the-art facial treatments like the miracle-worthy Double Collagen Facial. Another Ciel signature is the Spun Glass Facial, using Freeze 24/7, a unique product recognized as a preferred alternative to Botox. All products used at Ciel will be available for purchase at the entry area gallery, featuring intriguing specialties in skincare, bath accessories and custom-crafted jewelry pieces.
