The Best Boutique Hotels in Los Angeles, From Hollywood Icons to Eastside Hideaways

Tucked away on storied Sunset Boulevard lies a piece of LA's Hollywood legacy - Chateau Marmont. This storied hotel has long been a hotspot for A-listers and high-society types, its rooms boasting an eclectic charm that ranges from cozy suites to idyllic cottages and bungalows. With just 63 intimate spaces, guests can feel like they're part of an exclusive enclave.

When you step inside, the warm ambiance envelops you - think full-sized kitchens, window-side dining tables, and peaceful courtyards where time stands still. But be warned: dinner here comes with a hefty price tag, and non-hotel diners often find themselves on the waiting list. Booking ahead of time (weeks in advance, even) can ensure priority treatment, but a last-minute call might just yield an opening.

Beyond its allure as a retreat for the rich and famous, Chateau Marmont has something to offer for every kind of traveler - whether you're sipping cocktails at the bar or enjoying your meal. The hotel's vintage vibe is captured in the elegant, if slightly darkly Gothic, decor that awaits you within. Whether you're looking to rub shoulders with the stars or simply enjoy a unique stay in one of LA's most iconic hotels, Chateau Marmont remains an enduring choice for anyone seeking a home away from home.
 
I don’t usually comment but I gotta say, Chateau Marmont is defo on my bucket list 🤩! 63 rooms might seem cozy, but honestly who needs that many when you can splurge and stay in one of those fancy suites? And that dinner price tag? Worth. Every. Penny 😍. I mean, have you seen the decor? It's like stepping into a Tim Burton movie – dark, gothic vibes all the way 🎃. But for real, who wouldn’t want to rub shoulders with the stars or just enjoy a unique stay in LA? The waiting list is probs worth it if you ask me 😉.
 
I gotta say, I'm so overpriced just even thinking about it 🤑. $20k plus per night is crazy! Can you imagine the drama and paparazzi that comes with staying there? Not for me, give me a cozy Airbnb any day 😴. But hey, if you're A-list or got deep pockets, I guess Chateau Marmont's charm might be worth it ✨. Still, I'd rather splurge on an experience than just a fancy hotel room 🎟️.
 
omg u gotta stay here at chateau marmont lol its like, totally worth the splurge!!! i mean, its not cheap but its def a unique experience ur gonna feel like a celeb staying in one of these cozy suites or cottages. and omg the decor is everything - all this gothic vibes and dark cherry wood... its so aesthetic i swear u could take some pics for ur insta and make it look like u're living ur best life lol anyway, its def on my bucket list to stay here at least once
 
omg i just saw this hotel and its soooo pretty 🌅💫 i wanna live there lol! but you know what's kinda weird they have a waiting list for dinner idk why tho, cant u just book it online or something? 🤷‍♀️ anyway its supposed to be super exclusive like its only for rich ppl, but at the same time its all cozy and comfy looking like a total dream 😴 got any idea how much they charge per night?? 💸
 
I'm not sure I get why this hotel is so special 🤔. I mean, it's got some old-school charm and all, but $1k+ per night? That's just crazy expensive 💸. And I don't know about the "eclectic" vibe - to me, it just sounds like a bunch of old furniture and weird artwork stuck together 🤷‍♀️.

I guess if you're into that whole celebrity hangout scene, Chateau Marmont might be the place for you 🌟. But for regular people on a budget? Nope, not gonna happen 💸. Unless... unless you want to splurge on a fancy dinner and pretend to be a rich star for a night 😂.
 
🤔 I mean, can you believe this place has been around since forever? It's like stepping into a different world! The decor is so on point, it's like they raided a vintage shop and brought all the cool stuff back to life. And 63 rooms? That's intimate, for sure. I'd love to stay here just to experience that "exclusive enclave" vibe... but you know what? $$$$ makes me hesitant 😅 still, if you're feeling fancy and wanna rub shoulders with the stars (or at least get a glimpse of their Instagram-worthy pics), Chateau Marmont is def worth a splurge. 💸
 
OMG u guys I am literally DYING over this hotel 🤩🏨 like can u believe it has its own private courtyards and full-sized kitchens?! 🌳🍳 I'm seriously considering planning a trip to LA just so I can stay here for a night (or two, or three... 😴) and experience that old-school Hollywood glamour. And omg the decor is like WHOA dark gothic vibes are literally my aesthetic 💀🎨 gotta get me some of those decor ideas for my own pad! 🏠💖
 
I dont get why ppl r all about chateau marmont its overrated 100 bucks for a drink 🤦‍♂️ and they expect u to book weeks in advance? sounds like elitist bs to me. and the decor? dark gothic? doesnt sound very welcoming. i mean, if ur gonna charge top dollar, gotta have some decent food & entertainment options too. but nope, its all about the exclusive feel. btw, who needs that kind of fancy when u can stay at a hostel for half the price 🤑
 
I'm low-key obsessed with this place 🤩🏨. Like, can you imagine staying in a hotel that's literally been a spot for celebrities and old-school Hollywood glamour? 🎬 The rooms are so intimate and cozy, it feels like you're part of some exclusive club 🤫. And those courtyards? 😍 So peaceful and serene, it's like time just stands still there. Plus, the decor is so retro-chic, I'm dying to visit someday! 🕰️
