I Lived Like Paris Hilton For An Hour, And I Could Absolutely Get Used To These 11 Things
by Ashley Holt · BuzzFeedHey you, if you're here, that means you either like to travel, you're curious about what the rich and famous keep in their hotel rooms when they travel, or you want to know how many shades of pink Paris Hilton can squeeze into one hotel suite. It doesn't matter which one applies to you because you're in the right place either way!
Paris designed a hotel suite at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles.
The purpose of the collab is to promote her new album called Infinite Icon. Anyone can book the suite for a hotel stay through the month of October. It costs $1,111 a night, and can only be booked for two nights at a time.
If you know me, you know I'm down to try anything bougie. So I jumped at the chance to peek inside.
(Yes, this is a preview of me making myself feel right at home in the suite).
Editor's note: BuzzFeed was provided this experience free of charge but was under no obligation to give a positive review. This post includes our honest reactions.
When you walk into the hotel, the suite has its own check-in counter. You don't have to be a detective to spot it, trust me.
Once I got upstairs, the suite was also not very hard to find.
I walked in, and the Hilton team offered me a glass of champagne, pink slippers, a robe, and some Y2K sunglasses, so who was I to say no?
(They had no idea they were creating a monster.)
Now that we're all comfortable, here are the 11 details from inside the suite that I could get verrry used to, and whether they're heiress-coded or oddly normal to me:
1. The canapés on the table when you walk in.
I am a midwestern girlie through and through, so I had never actually heard of canapés; maybe you're laughing right now because that's ridiculous. But that made this super heiress-coded for me.
2. The drinks spread out around the room.
The room comes with a bartender who stops by for a happy hour. Apparently, Paris's go-to drinks upon entry are pink champagne and a pomegranate mocktail. Very normal. It's giving balance, and absolutely what I would bring to a sleepover. The bartender is obviously giving heiress unless it's a bachelorette party in Vegas. IYKYK.
3. That brings me to the snack drawer.
You had me at Sour Patch. There was also popcorn, pink Starbursts, and pink M&M's. It's giving normal, except for the all-pink Starbursts and M&M's. I'd pay good money for a bag of pink Starbursts I didn't have to sort myself.
4. The mini-fridge.
Pink champagne, sparkling water, Coca-Cola, and Sprite. It's all the essential food groups from a girlie refrigerator. Very normal. I just bought most of these items from Target last night for myself.
5. DVDs of movies and shows from the 2000s.
I was not expecting this, and audibly gasped when they were revealed inside of the columns surrounding the TV. I would be the girl who sat in here watching movies for the entire stay. A great touch. Very normal. You also gotta respect the hustle. Paris's very first reality TV show, The Simple Life, is a viewing option for guests.
6. The karaoke machine and ring light.
If you have been to a girls' night that didn't include at least one of these, I have genuine questions. I spent a solid 15 minutes at the ring light and I'm not sorry. Very normal.
7. The full-length mirror with a Paris Hilton quote.
A full-length mirror is a must. Having your own quote across it, super heiress-coded. Also, *adds to vision board*.
8. Actual rugs from Paris's home.
The rugs are from Wear the House. They range in price from $600–$1,400. Since I'm currently sitting on a rug that was $320 and it hurt my soul when I bought it, I'm going heiress-coded on this one. But it's way more reasonably priced than I would've thought, and there were matching pillows throughout the suite.
9. The green tea wellness shot accompanied by macaroons in the bedroom.
The shot went down a bit too easily. It was hilarious, I cringed and everything waiting for it to hurt. I think it's more of a 'you've been drinking champagne all day' refresher. But the duality of health and anti-health next to each other, and by the bed at that? I'm going to say normal.
10. The view from the balcony.
Unreal. It's impossible to capture in a photo. Very heiress-coded, especially if you're not from California. All I could hear was the theme song for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in my head.
11. And finally, 26 shades of pink throughout the entire suite.
I had no idea that many shades of pink even existed. So yes, heiress-coded. Also, what my 8-year-old self begged for multiple Christmases in a row.
Overall, this was a fun, nostalgic experience as a '90s baby. It's also super "Instagram-able" and "TikTok-able." In my opinion, it's a cool idea for a girls' trip to LA, especially if you've never been here before, or if you've never been a hotel heiress before. Also, as a perpetually tired girlie, the late checkout time and 11:11 a.m. brunch time truly spoke to my soul.
However, it is my civic duty to remind you that the price is steep for the average person, and only a few people can stay in the suite, no large groups, so keep that in mind (and wallet) when you book. That said, Hilton Honors members can use points, and you can enter a sweepstakes if you have luck with those kinds of things.
