greystone mansion and park

The most stunning gardens... it's the perfect place to escape from Hollywood for an hour or so, quiet and beautiful, with an amazing view of the city from the top of the hill. More details and photos on my blog :) http://ordinarygirlextraordinarydreamer.com/2015/02/26/greystone-mansion-park-la/

You must visit Greystone Mansion. We walked there and it was great exercise. It's in the middle of a fabulous residential area full of mansions. The Bodyguard used the outside for some movie shots. A must do in a Beverly Hills as the mansion grounds are full of mystical beauty and grandeur.

Our tour person recommended we at least stop in - he told of the fascinating history and toured us around the outside. Would have loved to spend more time & see the inside

I visited Greystone mansion and park on a nice, sunny late Saturday morning. I was in awe of this architectural masterpiece before I'd even set foot on the actual grounds. It called to me from the hill/vista which it is set upon. The park is very beautiful, perfect for anyone who enjoys immaculate landscape and scenic views. There was a lot going on the day I visited; a wedding photo shoot in the park and a play at the actual Greystone mansion, which prohibited anyone from stalking around the premises too closely. I'd only wished I had visited on a Saturday when they offered the ranger tour of the mansion. I would've loved to see inside, w/o having to sneak a peek through the windows. This historic landmark is definitely a must see in Beverly Hills.

This is a nice area to walk around in. The mansion is not open except for prearranged tours, which are not free. The outdoor grounds, however, are free. The view is very pretty and this is a nice way to get some exercise. Public bathrooms are available but there are no options for food/drinks. I would not call this one of the top attractions in LA, but it's worth doing if you have a car and some extra free time.

Do not take photos, do not step, do not breathe.... A gorgeous place turned into a prison. You feel like you're doing something wrong even if you are not. It would be a great scape from the city and its freeways. What a shame!

First I must say that I love old houses, almost any old house. Of course mansions are a particular favorite. Grey stone mansion was not a disappointment. My husband and I took a private tour of the property and house. Daniel, the park ranger, was very knowledgable and was kind enough to put up with all my questions. It is a beautiful house. I am so pleased the city chose to keep it and continue to restore and care for it. Interior details are not to be missed.

Was lucky enough to be able to view and roam the hallways of this fantastic estate. Absolutely amazing without question. A must see.

The food is good and the atmosphere is excellent, with service staff is very attentive and never let me look for them, some one is available all the time. I advise to visit them to experience yourself

My birthday was here!! After ten years of knowing this place, I never thought it would be on my special day that I would be at this mansion. You get a taste of life back in the 1920s at Greystone. The Doheny estate will always hold a special place in my heart since I was a little kid.

Having not been fully aware of Greystone Mansion, it's relevance to the film industry and it's history, we visited after a friend's recommendation. An excellent morning was had at the site and we had the good fortune to meet a Beverly Hills City Ranger on site. Thumbs up all round for the courtesy and assistance received by the city employees and the whole experience. Would recommend it to anyone visiting Beverly Hills.

As an LA native I may be biased, but truly this is one of my favorite places in the world. The history, architecture,and manicured grounds make it a truly magical place.

We walked there, which was a bit of a hike from the Beverly Hilton, but it was cool to see all the beautiful houses on the way. When we got there, we couldn't go into the mansion because of a private function, and if you can't go in, it's not worth going.

Visited as part of a cycle tour with Hikes & Bikes, I wasn't really that bothered initially but I really enjoyed it. Im sure a lot was to do with the guide but even without its well worth a visit, a beautiful buildings with a fabulous history

We are not usually visitors of these type of places,but our driver said we should stop and have a look. Glad we did,amazing architecture with a long and varied history, before it ended up in the possession of LA. Features in many films and is Bruce Wayne's house in Batman, with the Batlight still up on the chimneys.
