Château Marmont

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)

God, I just love this place!These bungalows are freakin awesome, the pool is so 1950's chic and not crowded)The restaurant : everything around is so wonderful, the food, the staff , the piano!)))

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

Very classy with great ambiance

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

And i love LOVE LOVE the impromptu mini-concerts! Okay, Chateau is a must-stay for everyone who has an appreciation for the good things in life. Btw, the bathrooms are provided by Kiehl's;)))

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

Perfect location for so many different things! Daytime champagne ? Why not? Staff is excellent

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!

The patio is so beautiful here I ate a second dinner just to be seated outside and enjoy this legendary old Hollywood ambiance.

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 outdoor seating is so charming. The staff couldn't be nicer. And as a dog-owner, I appreciate that my pet was allowed everywhere!

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

Force majeure is a great cocktail . Jump into the little tent for cigarette smokers and you've got a 40% chance of seeing Lohan

Voice Places reviewers say, "Great environment and not too crazy, but if you want to add a splash of crazy you can walk over to Bar Marmont . You get the best of both worlds." Read more

Pink peppercorn infused gin , Campari , sweet vermouth . Inspecteur Clouseau ????????

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.

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.

For an app go with the arrancini w/ mushrooms , salad the beet and goat cheese is yummy and for dinner the bass and shrimp is light and delicious.

Cool Restaurant and Bar . Amazing "Old Hollywood Glam " ambiance. Make sure to make a reservation for the weekends.

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.

"If these walls could talk…The famous (and infamous) Sunset Strip hotel has housed more legends and legendary stories than any other L.A. spot." -TH

have lunch (and drinks, of course) in the garden . pretend-talk about this new script you've been kicking around.

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.

The atmosphere here is indescribable and if you get the oysters with a Moscow Mule , you're pretty much set for life.

The huevos rancheros served on the patio are delicious.

Cruised past, but ran out of time to pop in for lunch or a drink. This celeb haven looks fab even from the outside!

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.

CA (Eat) There's nothing like dinner in the garden of The Chateau! Chef Carolyn Spence’s menu is guaranteed to make your belly very happy.

Great atmosphere, older crowd, very fancy . The food is amazing????????

Grilled Octopus is fantastic, especially with a glass of Beaujolais.

Must come here if visiting LA. It's very LA....very Hollywood. Old Hollywood glam .

This is a great cozy Hollywood gem if you have lots & lots & lots of money.

Entourage happened here. The perfect place to misbehave, you'll likely find a Billy Walsh wannabe on a bender in the hotel 's penthouse suite.

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 .

The old fashioned cocktail here is to-die-for. One of the most gorgeous outdoor dining rooms I've ever seen.

A Hollywood Classic. Try Sunday brunch to be among Tinseltown power players.

Ask for the spaghetti bolognese (off menu )

L.A.’s hip set digs this hilltop hideaway, which evokes the noir glamour of "Sunset Boulevard."
