Could Viceroy Be Making a Move on The Raffles L'Ermitage?

Could a Viceroy symbol being hanging over the beds at The Raffles L'Ermitage soon?
UPDATE: 1.13.10: Our tipster was right. Despite a denial from the Raffles folks, we are now hearing that Raffles L'ermitage has been sold to a "luxury chain." The announcement is coming in a few days. We'll do a new update then.
What better way to kick off the New Year with a brand new Hotel Rumor! This one involves Angelina Jolie's kinky sex hotel aka Raffles L'ermitage in Beverly Hills.
Someone Twittered at us over the weekend that this hotel might become a Viceroy Hotel but we haven't been able to find anything to substantiate this rumor.
If by some reason, Raffles would give up their Beverly Hills prized jewel, Viceroy--which has hotels in Santa Monica, Palm Springs, Miami and Anguilla--would have a lot of work to do as the Raffles decor is definitely not the same style as Kelly Wearstler, the interior designer/decorator for all Viceroy and Tides Hotels.
We also can't see the Viceroy fitting in with the hotel's rather low-key location on Burton Way. And what should happened to the hotel's prized Writer's Bar where scripts from famous movies adorn the walls.
And then there is the delicate question of Miss Jolie. Wherever shall she tryst for kinky sex?
Until we hear otherwise, this is solidly confirmed as a rumor and nothing more.
