Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles

oordinators, planners and venues. High end to mid range. Sari at the Biltmore had me sold from the very beginning. Not only did she show herself to be exceptionally professional and generous, her overall attitude was just what we needed. Any minor request or detailed suggestion, to simply make our experience better, was delivered. Not one issue with Sari. She was efficient, responsive, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. She has a background from another large hotel group, which I also met with. Since she joined forces at the Biltmore, WOW my expectations were blown away. She was a breathe of fresh air to work with. She was event present the day of our wedding to make sure everything went well and up to her standards!!! We were so satisfied with her work, I have referred people to her since. Even my wedding planner who's pretty known in the industry was so pleased with her, I think they're working together now :) Sari worked with us in every dept of planning our wedding. She was so hands on, I felt like I needed to pay her extra just for her good will because I'm not used to this type of behavior. She worked side by side with all my vendors, met with our caterer, worked with my planner and florist, assisted in the smallest things that from the outside may not be noticed but let me tell you, THEY MATTER. If it weren't for Sari, my experience would have been completely different. It's possible we might have even gone with a different venue to be honest. She even called my cell a couple weeks after the wedding to follow up, see how I was doing, if all went well, if there was anything I needed, etc...I have to send her a gift in the mail for everything. Whoever is considering to use the Biltmore, I STRONGLY encourage you to speak with Sari. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

lies. Everyone working here was very professional and patient in answering our questions or promptly returning emails. I highly recommend for any glamorous affair.

guests were very happy. Karen at Portos is great. beware: Hotel room was nice but not that clean and a bit worn. I wouldn't go necessarily go with the recommended vendors. Some weren't that good and you do have a choice. The main contact for the venue (Sari) is nice until you sign the contract then - is nearly impossible to get ahold of. I practically had to stalk her to get answers - If you don't go with a recommended wedding planner then she will make your life difficult but if you do then she will scheme with them to recommend things that are not needed and overcharge you on everything - did not submit my final seating chart so my wedding planner had to do damage control and find my guests places to sit at different tables - I requested well done steak and it was rare and slightly bloody - told me linens were always included then closer to the wedding date asked where I would be getting linens and tried to charge me more for them - did not tell me the hotel booked a Football party and sports team mascots would be walking up and down the beautiful hallway and T-shirt vendors would set up in the hallway so when I arrived in the morning for my wedding I was shocked, embarrassed and of course never got my beautiful photos in the hallway because it looked like Venice beach - T-shirt vendor set up in front of the coat check that I paid for so after ringing her phone off the hook and calling her boss she offered a portable metal coat rack rather than moving the T-shirt vendor - My fiancé did manage to get her boss (not her) to agree to set up tall plants along the edges of the T-shirt vendors booths to hide the tackiness of the booths, but again this was not something we needed to deal with on our wedding day and it was very stressful. We were disappointed by the way we were treated. They had our money at that point and I guess that is all that mattered to her.

s room (club level king bed room.) The grooms room was very small, but the decor on the club level is very nice. The junior suite, was very spacious (and boy, did we use ALL of the space!), but the decor was a little dated. There were also issues with cleanliness in the room - there was some sort of mystery spill on the bed skirt that was very obvious. (I stayed at the hotel about a week later for an event in a club level king room and it had a similar bed skirt stain, maybe they’re difficult to remove and clean, but a little spot cleaning would have probably done the trick.) The room was also not serviced the day of the wedding and we came back to no towels and a messy room on the wedding night, so that wasn’t fun. But...the worst/funniest/grossest thing that happened was when I was sorting out all my stuff the day before the wedding I was in the living room and my foot brushed under the sofa. I felt something with my bare foot (I thought it was something I had dropped) and I flicked it out. It was something white and shiny. I bent down to pick it up and it was a dental implant. I screamed and dropped it on the glass top or the coffee table in the room. It soared onto the floor across the room. I got a tissue, picked it up, and called the front desk to get it/them. I laughed a lot in a state of shock. I decided someone probably had a really bad night in the suite or a really awesome one. Either way they lost their teeth and I got a fun story. I still love the Biltmore, but I don’t know if I want to stay the night any time soon.

r stay there, but very expensive.

g at the hotel on our behalf and they were more than accommodating.

d my husband as well as our guests on our wedding day.This hotel is gourgous and any of the banquet rooms would be a great pick for your wedding. I had mine in the gold room. Not to mention all the beautiful places to take photos.I really can't say enough great things about the staff, they were wonderful!

aptain for the night and he was excellent!!! The food was great and my glass of champagne was never empty. He was very professional and went above and beyond for the weren't party and our guest. They exceeded my expectations!!!

Room and our Receprion in the Crystal Ballroom.

site, elegant and just overall beautiful.It is a venue fit for a princess. There is so much history. It is hard to find such a beautifully decorated and built hotel that encompasses a regal, elegant and classy theme.

to the Presidential suite the night before the wedding!;You'll probably see the other brides having events in the other rooms. Also tourists tend to get in the pictures!
