    A much-debated hotel project in Benedict Canyon that has drawn the ire of some neighbors, who expressed concerns regarding the impacts to the environment and public safety, was officially halted by the Los Angeles City Planning Department.

    City Planning Director Vincent Bertoni notified developer Gary Safady Wednesday that the city was revoking its approval for his Bulgari Resort Los Angeles, a proposed 58-room luxury hotel in an area of the Santa Monica Mountains.

    The L.A. City Council last week called for a halt to the project with an 8-6 vote on a motion introduced by Councilmember Katy Yaroslavsky, who represents the area. The motion calls on the Los Angeles City Planning Director to reconsider the initiation of a General Plan amendment which gave a specific zoning designation for the proposed hotel to be built in a residential area.

    The comittee did meet but they postponed the decision on this project...

    A Los Angeles City Council committee did not take up an item today regarding the Bulgari Hotel project, a controversial proposal in Benedict Canyon that has united opponents running for city office and pitted celebrities against each other.
    The Planning and Land Use Committee voted 4-0, with Councilman Gil Cedillo absent, to continue the item to a later date. The committee was scheduled to recommend a zoning decision to the full council on whether to allow the commercial project in a residential area.
    Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson, the chair of the committee, did not provide a reason for the continuation. Dozens of people still called in opposing the project, including Councilman Paul Koretz. Koretz introduced a motion last year calling for the city to rescind a General Plan amendment for the project. Koretz, speaking at a news briefing Monday, vowed to not allow the hotel to be approved in the few months he has remaining on the council. He said he hoped the project could be re-imagined to fit the parameters of the city code, comply with environmental protection regulations and have a developer who ``actually works closely with the community to make it work for everyone.''

    Gary Safady, a real estate developer and movie producer, has filed plans to build a 58-room hotel on a 33-acre hillside at 9704-9712 West Oak Road in Beverly Crest, the Los Angeles Times reported. The vision for the Bulgari Resort Los Angeles and eight single family homes has drawn fire from movie executives and celebrities who have squared off over the future of one of L.A.’s richest neighborhoods.
    A planning committee meeting is scheduled this week to decide on a zoning change needed to build a commercial project in the residential area. A final approval would be required from the Los Angeles City Council.
    If completed, The Bulgari would be one of eight hotels operated by a hospitality firm under LVMH, a French holding company created by the merger of fashion house Louis Vuitton and Moët Hennessy. The maximum occupancy of the hotel would be 715 people, including 130 employees per shift, according to city records.

    Los Angeles is finally getting a hotel worthy of its iconic hills. Bulgari Hotels & Resorts just announced its first L.A. location with an opening planned for 2025. Set on 33 acres in Benedict Canyon near Beverly Hills, the property will feature unparalleled views of the hillsides and the city beyond.

    The famous canyons of L.A. are mostly known for conveniently bad cell service (“Mom, mom, I’m heading into the canyon. I’ll have to call you back”) and addresses of the silly-rich and mega-famous. Benedict Canyon has been home to everyone from Roman Polanski to Kim Kardashian.

    But luxury hotels are less common in those residential enclaves. The Bulgari Resort will feature 58 rooms and suites, eight private estates and a signature restaurant. The property will feature a 10,000-square foot spa, a gym, cinema and eight-seat sushi bar. This will be only the second Bulgari resort property in the U.S., following a Miami opening in 2024.
    Details are still emerging but the emphasis will be on ultra-privacy, with discrete bungalows arrayed across the eastern half of the property. Eight resort residences will range in size from 12,000 to 48,000 square feet, each with private land of at least an acre. The largest is set on five acres.
    Although both the Bel-Air Hotel and Beverly Hills Hotel are nearby, the new Bulgari resort is higher up in the canyon, offering (potentially) more of a hideaway feel.
