Replica Beverly Wilshire Hotel - Orlando, Florida, USA. - Exact Replicas on Waymarking.com

Replica Inspiration: Beverly Wilshire Hotel, 9500 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills.
You might mistake this building for the original Beverly Wilshire Hotel, which stands on the corner of South Rodeo Drive & Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills.
The architects at Universal Florida created a masterful reproduction of this 1928 Italian Renaissance façade, which alas is not a hotel, but a store front for a gift shop.

"The elegant Beverly Wilshire Hotel was completed in 1928 at Wilshire Boulevard and Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. It was designed by the architecture firm of Walker & Eisen in an Italian Renaissance style. It’s now officially called the “Beverly Wilshire Beverly Hills (A Four Seasons Hotel).”

The Universal version does a masterful job of capturing the style of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel’s exterior, despite being a much smaller building.

For decades, Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills (A Four Seasons Hotel) has been a preferred address for Hollywood celebrities and the international elite – from Elvis Presley, John Lennon and Warren Beatty to the Aga Khan, Dalai Lama and the British royal family."
