Driving from DLR to Beverly Hills. ?

Hey all, my family and I will be at DLR in mid Oct, at the Disneyland Hotel. we will be there for six days, and I wanted to take one morning to drive to Bevery Hills for some shopping. (I want to buy my wife another hand bag from Versace).
My question for all the LA locals is, how long does it take to drive from DLR to Rodeo Drive? (Realtime rush hour traffic). It would be a Mon-Fri at around 9:00 am. Also, does the Hotel have a rent a car booth? If not I might have to rent a limo.
Thanks people.

Dont live there, but have done the drive a few times. You are going in peak time and it should take about 2.5 hours. Have fun, and feel free to call my hubby at anytime to tell him this story, he could use the hint!

Like Samsma said, you are looking at a 2.5-3 hour drive. If you are taking the 5 to the 10, don't take the Robertson offramp, it is way to packed. Use La Cienega, and then Wilshire over to Rodeo.

Ouch!

I'd sleep in and wait until the bulk of the commute traffic goes away (if it ever does...)

Usually takes us about 50-55 minutes (evening, off traffic time). We still like to play tourist (which we are) and cruise through the neighborhoods there and drool over the star's homes.

Enjoy!

We did that too. My daughter was thrilled we saw Nick Lachey driving his Escalade, made her whole trip!

I'd see if you can save it for the weekend and deal with less traffic. If not, it should be a nice trip. Maybe consider cutting across Wilshire to avoid some traffic from the 110.
