For a first visit, stay in or near the Golden Triangle. The Beverly Hills Municipal Code (section 3-1-303) sets the transient occupancy tax at 14% of the rent for occupancy of a hotel. We could not verify other charges (such as a tourism assessment, resort fees or parking) from an official source, so the calculator below includes only the 14% tax; ask your hotel for its all-in total. This page does not rate individual hotels. Some booking links are affiliate links (see our disclosure).
