As always, wellness is at the top of our life-balance to-do list. Busy culture, social media, and work-life conflict can challenge our wellness goals—Too often the meditation or yoga we promised ourselves today is shelved for tomorrow.
Compromising on wellness and self-care happens all too easily when traveling, because all semblance of a routine goes out the window the minute we’re on vacation or on a busy work trip. That’s exactly why the Four Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills has created an integrative wellness oasis that deepens the mind-body connection to allow for deeper relaxation. When the body can fully relax, it functions in a restorative state, releasing a cascade of curative chemicals that improve mood and health. Have you dedicated an entire vacation to self-care? Let us know where you stayed and what your routine was in the comments!

The OA team got an inside look at how this wellness-focused luxury hotel uses a combination of nature and state-of-the art wellness technology to create an environment where our bodies can function optimally again.
A Dedicated Wellness Floor in a Luxury Hotel
Imagine having the best night’s sleep of your life, or being blissed out for no reason. Those are just a few of the wellness goals for the entire fourth floor recently transformed into a restorative oasis. Designed to rejuvenate your mind-body connection to an optimum state, each room takes a multi-layered approach by using plants, sound, light, and technology.
Water and air purification systems along with hypoallergenic wood floors remove allergens. Circadian rhythm light therapy helps regulate the release of melatonin and serotonin to improve the quality of our sleep, overall mood, and sense of wellbeing. Sound machines soothe the nervous system and support a relaxed creative mental state. Inner bliss via in-room guided meditations by integrative-medicine physician Deepak Chopra, MD are available on demand. Select rooms have a Restorative Bed by Bryte™ to help you fall asleep faster and stay in a healing sleep cycle longer. Work out in the private fitness suite, use your in-room Alo Yoga equipment, or ride a Peloton.
The Organic Spa Makes This a True Wellness Hotel
It makes sense that the wellness floor is spa level opening upon the chic and beautifully landscaped terrace pool. The new Garden Suite features a living green wall by Naava, delivering plant therapy and relaxation for over-stimulated minds. While a new menu of organic treatments like the hydrating Ayuna facial provides performance green technology results.

GEMCLINICAL facials by KNESKO SKIN incorporate vibrational skin care into performance holistic ingredients. The healing reiki energy of love, grounding, and protection hydrates and resurfaces your skin while balancing your chakras. The luxurious biodegradable face mask delivers nourishing serum deep into the layers of your skin while your esthetician stimulates blood flow and reduces inflammation with a jade roller over the mask. Before you leave, a sample of your chosen serum is gifted to you, such as the Rose Quartz Antioxidant or Nanogold Repair, to extend your treatment and results at home.
For the body, the 110-minute Toning and Firming Body Sculpt Body with vegan body care line La Natura Botanicals combines the healing hands of a massage specialist and a massage gun. Afterwards, your body is wrapped in an anti-inflammatory turmeric clay body mask before an hour-long lymphatic massage to reduce inflammation and invigorate your immune system that leaves you completely blissed out with that amazing floaty feeling.
Spa services also extend to the pool area for hotel guests where you can book a luxurious massage, manicure or pedicure in a private cabana. Add on a rejuvenating KNESKO collagen face or eye mask to rehydrate your skin from the sun.
Plant-Based Cuisine Options at the Luxury Hotel
Committed to nutrient dense, plant-based dining options, the hotel developed an inspiring relationship with celebrity plant-based chef Matthew Kenney. His acclaimed vegan restaurant Plant Food + Wine recently relocated from Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach to the hotel’s sun-drenched pool terrace. Complete with a new menu, design, and relaxed chic aesthetic, Kenney says the menu will embrace “local and seasonal ingredients and applying the multiple techniques we have developed in our test kitchen over recent years. We have developed a large portfolio of breakfast items and are very excited to share them with restaurant patrons and hotel guests. Lunch will be casual yet vibrant cuisine, and dinner will be more adventurous, paired with a botanical cocktail menu and naturally curated wine list. We intend to offer a fast-paced tasting menu in the evening as well.”

For breakfast try the velvety vegan French toast on a brioche with coconut whip and hibiscus syrup with a fresh juice or the cacao and espresso smoothie. The afternoon menu delights the senses with a refreshing vegan Caesar with zaatar pomegranate dressing. Or try the classic raw heirloom tomato and zucchini lasagna with pistachio pesto and macadamia ricotta. Savory international dinner options include a butternut cashew fundido with charred broccoli, harissa cauliflower with saffron rice, chipotle glazed maitake mushrooms with charred sweet corn and sesame mole, and kimchi wraps with napa cabbage, cilantro and kimchi foam. Don’t skip dessert! The classic vegan banana cream pie, stone fruit creamsicle peach granita, and luscious vegan chocolate cake with pistachio and rosewater are utterly satisfying.
Luxury Wellness Hotel Curated Programming
Along with resident healer programs with leading intuitives, astrologers, and reiki masters, the Four Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills celebrates Global Wellness Day, a non-profit social project dedicated to living well. This year’s inspiring program began with morning yoga on the helipad led by Alo Yoga Ambassador Josh Kramer with a stunning 360 aerial view of Los Angeles, followed by fresh-pressed green juices and acai bowls at Culina Café. After a delicious plant-based lunch curated by Chef Matthew Kenny, the day ended with an Altha sound bath led by master sound healer Letizia Silvestri and hypnotherapist Brice Le Roux.
There is much to learn from the integrative wellness approach of the Four Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills, especially the impact our environment has on our mind and body. From removing allergens to increasing plant therapy indoors and lighting that supports circadian rhythms, these elements relax and restore our bodies every minute of the day. Reconnecting to nature—with some wellness enhanced by tech innovations—restores our mind to its natural creative state. When we’re back to our natural rhythms, it’s easy to slip into that connected floaty feeling and smile for no reason.
