Breakfast At Double Take
Breakfast options at the Kimpton Palomar Beverly Hills included Double Take, located in the lobby next to the Game Room, where we opted to use our IHG Diamond Status Free Breakfast credit on some take out breakfast.
We decided to go with the Florentine Eggs Benedict and the Double Take Breakfast – both of which were rich, delicious, and surprisingly hearty.
