The glamorous Sunset Tower hotel recalls the romance of 1930’s Hollywood, and has played host to high profile guests such as Marilyn Monroe, Truman Capote and Frank Sinatra over the decades. Nowadays, it’s the place where celebrities and the movers and shakers of Hollywood come to drink and party. The Sunset Tower hotel prides itself on its secrecy, discretion and the safe harbor it offers to its star clientele, with a notoriously strict door policy that rejects any troublemaking stars to avoid any negative press. The Terrace and Tower Bar is often rented out for exclusive gala-style openings, such as Vanity Fair’s prestigious Oscar’s night party. Try the signature cocktail, The Capote, made with Plymouth gin, St. Germain elderflower liqueur, red grapes, fresh lime juice and club soda. Although the drink prices are indulgent, this glamourous and seductive setting is well worth the expense--just don't be surprised if you see Natalie Portman quietly sipping a cocktail at the next table.
