Plaza Hotel’s presidential suite depicts
Reagan duo’s glory days in White House
Meeting Adjourned
GH.ES (AP) - Ronald Reagan's
famous "Where's the rest of me?”
scene in the 1942 classic Kings Row
was playing on a television while
Nancy Reagan reminisced about bet-
ter days in the presidential suite at the
Century Plaza Hotel.
‘The memory that comes first to
mind is my husband standing on the
balcony and throwing those paper
planes” laughed the former first lady
on a tour of the 8,(XX)-square-foot
suite.
Sure enough, on one of the many
walls, there's a framed photograph of
the (iipper dispatching a paper plane
over the side of the suite's balcony.
I lie hotel recently refurbished the
presidential quarters where Reagan
slaved when visiting Los Angeles in
lhe I US!Is, now calling it the Ronald
Reagan Suite Also a favorite of other
celebrities, the suite is now available
to anyone lor $5,400 a night.
Reagan didn't attend the suite's
dedication. Alzheimer's disease has
silenced the Ciftat Communicator,
who turned 8K on Feb. 6
It took two years to redecorate the
Reagan rooms, down to details includ-
ing bottles of Mrs. Reagan's Tuber-
euse perfume and her husband's fa-
vorite Atkins Royal Briar aftershave.
I’he Reagans were the first to stay in
the suite when it opened in I984.
Mrs Reagan paused at the 47 pho-
tographs chronicling the couple’s lives
during the White House years. One
showed them floating in their canoe
hit Imv at their Santa Barbara. Calil.,
ranch
“I'm old fashioned. I know, but I
thought it would be so romantic if he
Ronald Reagan
was playing a ukulele,” Mrs. Reagan
said, recalling the photo taken on their
25th wedding anniversary.
“I don't have a ukulele," Reagan
told her that day.
“I said. That's OK. you can
hum,’" she laughed.
The Reagan suite, which takes up
the entire 30th floor of the hotel's
tower, is surrounded by an outdoor
terrace and floor-to-ceiling windows
with panoramic views of the Pacific
Ocean. Beverly Hills, Hollywood and
downtown Los Angeles.
The tower was built with security
in mind, including reinforced concrete
walls, bulletproof glass, a private ele-
vator and secured stairwell. It also has
a private kitchen and personal butler
service.
Bennett Hall Images created the
theme for the redecorated suite with
the help of Reagan’s office, which
happens to be across the street, and the
staff at the Ronald Reagan Presiden-
tial Library in Simi Valley.
The suite is stocked with Reagan
books on night stands in the two bed-
rooms. There are presidential coffee
mugs, a bowl of jelly beans and even
a Gideon Bible inside the armoire in
the master bedroom.
There are also 15 videos of Reagan
movies, including Knute Rockne, All
American, Bedtime for Bonzo and
Hellcats of the Navy.
Mrs. Reagan fondly recalled the
day the suite’s security features helped
her put one over on the presidential
press corps.
She had found a post-presidency
home in nearby Bel-Air and wanted
the president to see it. What she didn’t
want was the media to follow them up
there.
So just before a Century Plaza
speech, she told the president and
Secret Service “we’re going,” and she
quickly hustled them down the private
elevator to a waiting station wagon.
The president crouched out of sight in
the back seat and they were whisked
off to Bel-Air unnoticed.
"He raced through the house, said,
‘All right,' and we left. It was the
fastest trip we’ve ever made,” Mrs.
Reagan laughed. It was all she needed,
though. They moved to the Bel-Air
house after leaving the White House.
Hotel director Tim Groves said the
suite has appealed to a wide variety of
people, from Elton John, who stayed
for a month, to former President
George Bush, heads of state and For-
tune 5(H) CEOs.
Hollywood even used it for the
1996 comedy Celtic Pride.
