Beverly Hills Hotel: Posh Hotels Inspire Lush Interior Decor
Not so long ago, high-end hotel rooms seemed to come in two flavors: blandly tasteful or, thanks to hotelier Ian Schrager and designer Philippe Starck, surreal and cutting-edge.
But these days, hotels seeking crucial repeat business are focusing on comfort and high style that's neither off-putting nor cookie-cutter.
To lure moneyed guests used to the very best, the idea is to create hotel rooms "equal to or better than what they have at home," says Cheryl Rowley, the beverly hills hotel Hills designer responsible for a lively makeover of the rooms at Philadelphia's Four Seasons Hotel.
She has given them contemporary touches mixed with a Federal look, featuring a rich palette of faded tomato red, celery green, butter, charcoal and chocolate.Pays and Bernsen's own artistry as renovators first garnered notice after they spent three years redoing an English country-style home in beverly hills hotel Hills, and then sold it to actor Steve Martin in 1995. The house included a wine cellar, screening room and music room as well as a guest house made of stone. Doors were imported from England, and wooden beams originated in a barn in Connecticut. "It was just a great house. We went all out," Pays recalls.
