Description
A Hollywood Landmark To attract a demanding clientele, the Sunset Tower incorporated the latest in both technology and design. There were modern conveniences, like outlets in every bathroom for electric shavers, and the windows were made larger to take advantage of the spectacular views. The Sunset Tower is a Hollywood landmark and up until the 1950s it was as much a tourist attraction as the Hollywood sign itself. It has appeared in a number of films, including The Italian Job, Get Shorty, The Player and Strange Days. Its first literary mention was in Raymond Chandlers Farewell, My Lovely (1940). The film version of that novel, Murder, My Sweet, released four years later, was its first screen reference. THE TOWER BAR AND RESTAURANT OFFERS AN ELEGANT HAVEN FOR THE DISCERNING. The Tower Bar is the chicest and most welcoming room in town, with a fireplace and discreet niche seating for privacy. Housed in Bugsy Siegel's old apartment on the ground floor, the 80-seat room is ably administered by maitre d' Dimitri Dimitrov, widely hailed as the city's best. While the cuisine takes its inspiration from northern Italy and the French bistro, the overall accent is distinctly Californian, with a focus on fresh local ingredients. ADJOINING THE TOWER BAR IS THE TERRACE, A CASUAL-DRESS POOLSIDE CAFE WITH UNIQUE INDOOR/OUTDOOR SETTING AND INCREDIBLE SWEEPING VIEWS OF THE CITY. Whether nestling in chic poolside cabanas, or seated on the covered travertine lanai, the Terrace is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Or just come for a drink and soak in the spectacular view and old Hollywood ambiance. The Terrace serves the Tower Bar menu in addition to a selection of small plate appetizers. It is also available for private events with a separate entrance.Directions
