This monument to Art Deco on Sunset Strip has a fascinating past: It began as the Sunset Towers in 1931, home to such luminaries as Jean Harlow, Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe. Though on the small side, guest rooms have two-line telephones, great views and some have sexy gondola beds. As you enjoy such amenities as the swimming pool, health spa and outdoor lounging area that offers a gorgeous panoramic view of the city, you can't help but feel a bit nostalgic for Hollywood's legendary past. Business center, meeting rooms, an extensive film and book library, and secretarial services are all at your fingertips. The hotel's restaurant, Fenix, is a stylish and elegant room featuring innovative California-French cuisine. The Club Lounge and Bar is a classy spot to relax and people-watch. As if all this weren't enough, there's an amazing collection of Hollywood portraits by photographers George Hurrell and Clarence Sinclair Bull. A major renovation is due to be finished in August of 2005.
