Star Studded Oscar Cocktails
When it comes to the Academy Awards, Loews Hollywood Hotel is in the center of all the action! Located on Hollywood Boulevard and adjacent to the Dolby Theatre, where the star-studded show takes place each year, there’s no better place to visit during award season. With suites that boast amazing views of the LA city skyline and specializing in VIP service, many notable celebrities opt to stay and get ready for the big night at the hotel. Throughout the day, you can spot celebrities roaming the hallways, grabbing drinks at the bar, heading to their room for a quick refresh in between commercial breaks or touting around their Oscar as they head to The Governor’s Ball next door, which is the official Oscars after party.
Being so connected to the hottest night in Hollywood, the Food & Beverage team at Loews Hollywood Hotel takes inspiration from the films nominated for 'Best Picture' by creating a craft cocktail menu worthy of the red-carpet. Stop by through February 16th to try them for yourselves or elevate your Oscar viewing party with these glamorous cocktail recipes created by our talented bartenders from H² Kitchen & Bar.
