Is The Maybourne Beverly Hills worth it? Honest pros and cons
Yes — The Maybourne Beverly Hills is a high-end, full-service hotel in the Golden Triangle that suits travelers who want a central Rodeo Drive location, multiple on-site restaurants and a large spa. It's worth it if you prioritize location, spa and rooftop pool access; if you mainly seek a budget stay or a small, quiet boutique, the price and busy public spaces may be drawbacks.
