What hotel was used in "Beverly Hills Cop II"?

The hotel used in Beverly Hills Cop II was the Hollywood Roosevelt.

The Hollywood Roosevelt is a landmark hotel on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles. Opened in 1927, it was named after President Theodore Roosevelt and became closely associated with Hollywood’s Golden Age. The hotel hosted the first Academy Awards ceremony in 1929, held in its Blossom Ballroom, long before the Oscars moved to larger venues.

For Beverly Hills Cop II, the production used the Roosevelt Hotel’s Cinegrill, a restaurant and entertainment space within the property. The movie’s Southern California locations also included Hollywood Park, the Max Factor building and the Playboy Mansion. Because the film frequently moves between Beverly Hills and greater Los Angeles, viewers sometimes assume every glamorous location is inside Beverly Hills itself; the Roosevelt is actually in Hollywood.

Released in 1987, the film stars Eddie Murphy as Detroit detective Axel Foley, who returns to California to help investigate an organized series of robberies. The Hollywood Roosevelt has continued to appear in films and television, including Catch Me If You Can and various productions that use its preserved Art Deco interiors as shorthand for classic Hollywood.
