5.0 I had a royal family visit town for their child’s medical needs and I have secured a luxury house in Bel Air for them. Unfortunly, the owner has decided 7 days before the check in to cancel the request. Urgenly I reached out to Avi at EssentiaLyfe and has found me an $88M replacement villa nearby for them. We checked them in, Avi was very responsive and on top of the small details. My clients were very happy.

4.0 Nice hotel and everything felt very clean. Even the carpets lots of mirrors everywhere so really great to spend romantic evening 😉. All the staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly valet parking was a bit expensive in my opinion, but a great option to have it covered.

2.0 We stayed at SLS for two nights and were pretty disappointed. Have been a longtime Marriott customer and the level of service at SLS Beverly Hills was definitely not worth the price and the hotel doesn’t feel like a 5-star hotel. The rooms themselves are fine, although the bed and pillow weren’t comfortable, and the valet staff were very quick. However, we waited at check in for a while (even though it wasn’t a peak hour), and in the morning, our breakfast was included but we were informed on arrival that we had to wait half an hour to be seated in spite of there being several available tables. The staff at the restaurant were rude, seemed annoyed we were even there.The hotel itself apart from the rooms felt tacky in terms of decor and there was a ton of road construction happening right outside the hotel entrance. This was a very disappointing experience - definitely not 5-star nor worth the price and I’d stay somewhere else next time in LA.

1.0 I promise you the good reviews are paid for. This place is not 5 stars. 3 stars at best.If you expect anything more than 3 stars you will be disappointed. Rooms are dirty. Run down hotel. So many better options for the price

3.0 Don’t trust anyone who tells you they like this hotel. I’ve had 10x better experiences at Courtyards and SpringHills. Outside of the front desk, it is the worst customer service you’ll ever receive. We were laughing it was so bad up at the pool/restaurant area. We were there for an hour, already knew our drink orders before we sat down, and still took over 15 min to order a drink and over 20 to get the check. Over an hour spent there to get ONE drink. Most employees didn’t even acknowledge us, the ones who did were incredibly flustered with the other….. 15 guests there. Rooms were solid and clean but not great for the price. AC sucks/isn’t strong. Shuts off after 3 hours without movement, what a joke

5.0 I absolutely loved my stay at the SLS Hotel Beverly Hills and can't wait to return!The location is fantastic. It's an easy walk to Beverly Hills, The Grove, and Beverly Center, and if you head a few blocks north, you'll find yourself on the iconic Melrose Avenue. It was the perfect base for exploring Los Angeles without constantly needing the car.One of my favorite spots was the beautiful rooftop pool, such a relaxing place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The breakfasts each morning were delicious and served in a cosy, welcoming atmosphere that made every day start off perfectly.A small detail that made a big difference was the elevators. They were incredibly fast, and I never had to wait, which was a pleasant surprise for a busy hotel.What truly sets this hotel apart, though, is the exceptional staff. Everyone was warm, professional, and genuinely cared about making our stay enjoyable. I also appreciated the complimentary bottled water always available at the front desk, a thoughtful touch that was especially welcome after spending time out in the California sunshine.Thank you, SLS, for another wonderful stay. I'll definitely be back!

1.0 Extremely disappointing experience for a supposed 5-star hotel.We are paying around $500 per night, and one of the main reasons for choosing this hotel was to enjoy the pool and the facilities you expect from a property at this level.We arrived at the pool around 1 PM and were told there were no loungers available. The ridiculous part? There were around 10 EMPTY loungers sitting there with nobody using them, but apparently they were all “reserved,” so actual hotel guests were simply denied access to them.How is it acceptable to pay $500 a night at a 5-star hotel and not even be able to sit by the pool because empty loungers are being held for people who aren’t there?If the hotel cannot provide enough pool space for its paying guests, then it should either stop accepting so many reservations or stop advertising the pool as an amenity guests can actually enjoy.For this price and this supposed level of service, this is completely unacceptable. Definitely not the 5-star experience we expected, and a huge disappointment.

5.0 EssentiaLyfe was a life saver for us - I had booked a property with another agency for a luxury brand event and it fell through 10 days before the event date. I was lucky to find Avi and his team through online research - within 30 minutes of contacting him, he sent me 10 comparable options, within a few hours he got us access, and by that afternoon we had toured 3 beautiful properties. EssentiaLyfe's support continued through the contract, event and closing process. He was with us throughout it all, and helped negotiate on our behalf with the owner and terms, as well as assisting with same day check in, inspection and management. Avi went the extra mile and covered some of the frivolous fees that the owner tried to claim after we vacated and he returned the deposit to us in full. We look forward to working with him again for events and VIP bookings.

5.0 Avi has sent us a nice family to rent our house in Beverly Hills for a few days in Christmas. The guests were well behaved and left the property in great condition.

5.0 I booked a venue for a Bar Mitzvah and 2 weeks before the event date the venue host canceled the rental. We scrambled and found Avi from EssentiaLyfe. Within 48 hours we were able to secure a new venue. Highly recommend him. Event went well with no issues and at a lower price that we first booked the location

5.0 We partnered up with Avi and his team to rent out a $200M estate to host an 800 people Halloween party. The entire experience from set up to event and strike went without an issue. No damages or crowd issues was reported. Client was well screened and stood behind the rental agreement scheduale. Would definitely work with them again.

5.0 Avi and his team went above and beyond to find the perfect venue for our Kismi Halloween event when other agencies couldn’t deliver venues of that kind. Avi went the extra mile to ensure we got back our security deposit. I highly recommend working with him.

5.0 I have a property that I listed with Essentialyfe for the last two years.

They have booked numerous quality events at my location from a one day event to a month long movie shoot and everything in-between.

Essentialyfe has always been professional, respectful, and responsible for my location and my requests.

I would highly recommend them.

5.0 Before working with ESSENTIALYFE, I spoke to several different companies who could not help us meet the needs of our corporate event. Avi helped us to book a solid venue to host our event. Very professional and direct. Willing to work with us to be within budget. Pleasant experience. Highly recommend.
