    You’ll feel like a celeb yourself as you ride the elevator straight from the garage to your room. And the mojito at the always-fashionable Bar Marmont might just be the best in Los Angeles. Read more

    The restaurant is teensy, about ten tables. Better to dine in the courtyard, where you might eavesdrop on tabloid favorites, or in the mission-style lobby, where everyone crosses your path. Read more

    A carefully curated old world ambiance in a city that obsesses over the new. Hotelier André Balazs has nailed it and the cocktails, food (bolognese & killer fried chicken), rooms and service all work.

    go for a meal here one night and request a table in the garden (it can be a fun place to go for a late meal and stay for drinks. lots of celeb sightings and a great old hollywood atmosphere)

    I have experienced my share of, dare I say, debauchery in the many chateaux in the Loire Valley in France. But this chateau might take the gateau.

    Possibly the most essential hotel in all of LA, the 1927 Chateau is home to history, glamor, and the deepest secrets of a million celebrities. Now owned by Andre Balazs. Read more

    Beautiful place to throw an event or enjoy lunch. Sneak a peek at the bungalows and pool before you leave.

    Built in 1927 and was modeled loosely after the Château d'Amboise, a royal retreat in France's Loire Valley. Atmosphere of old Hollywood! Rich in history & mystery. LA's Historic-Cultural Monument.

    The closest thing to being home when on the road in L.A. They treat you like you 're special-and maybe you are if you are staying here. You can't drive down the driveway if you aren't staying here BTW

    The rumors are true. Great old Hollywood hotel with lots of history. Everything being 24 hrs doesnt hurt either.

    Arrive at the bar before 5 p.m. if you want three hours of free valet parking; come for dinner after 9 p.m. if celebrity sightings are what you’re looking for.

    Before heading to the patio to luxuriate among the most famous and wealthy denizens of the world, head over to Bar Marmont for some of Chef Carolynn Spence's extraordinary cooking! Classic LA!

    Must make reservations for dinner. Or just tell them you're just doing drinks inside the lounge and put your name down. Security is tough.

    Modern American food and people-watching are the big draws for this tiny restaurant located in one of the hottest hotels. Eat in the courtyard or lobby to ensure you can spot all the fabulous people.

    Visit on your birthday and let them know youre celebrating. They'll bring you a desert mocking the "no rules" reputation the hotel has earned.

    It was in one of the Chateau’s bungalows that John Belushi overdosed in 1982 and he allegedly hasn’t left.There have been a number of sightings of Belushi around the hotel,specifically in the bungalow

    The food is good, but not incredibly good. The problem is the $12.50 Evian with the $10 Badoit.

    Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Well, kinda. Technically, we're talking about the lobby restaurant. Bar Marmont, up the street, is also good.

    If you want to have an "I sat next to [celebrity]" moment, go into the hotel and go to the bar. This is different than the main bar, which is frequented by, well, not celebrities.
