From Soho House to The Peninsula, an lofty paradise of pampered elites hovers high above the pedestrians of Beverly Hills. This Sunday, May 19, the SLS Hotel will back this privileged pack by re-opening its own rooftop pool deck, Altitude, for some summer sunbathing, price-gouging, and come weekends, possibly the type of pool party you’ve suffered in Sin City at one point or another. That’s right. Soon there will one less reason to trek to Vegas all the way to Vegas for the SBE experience you can have right here at home.

Re-opening at 11:00 A.M. with cabanas, chaise lounges, and probably a little light poolside techno, the pool deck also has new lunch and brunch menus designed by Jose Andres. The Spanish chef’s restaurant, The Bazaar, continues to be a major draw to the property, and the hotel’s reps confirm that he’s really, actually designed the dishes himself.

From a separate new kitchen space on the fifth floor, Altitude’s chefs will prepare Mediterranean and California-kissed dishes like fattoush salad, $20 skewers with melon and Iberico ham, $22 crab cake sliders, and a $70 seafood bowl with uni, oysters, king crab, lobster, shrimp, and scallops Greek yogurt shakes with agave nectar, ginger, and coconut are available, if you didn’t show up for bottle service.

Which brings us to this: New to the rooftop concept this year will be weekend pool parties from 2:00 to 6:00 P.M. every Saturday and Sunday, with a live DJ, daybeds available by reservation, and cabanas stocked with minibars, TVs, and DVD players.

Following Sunday’s debut, the pool deck will open Monday through Friday from 11:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. VIP reservations for the weekend soirees are available through summer weekends through SBE’s “hosts.” Heads up for the hard-sell on a bottle of vodka spangled in sparklers for the table.
