In Short – No other hotel has played a more central role in Hollywood mythology. "If you must get in trouble, do it at the Chateau Marmont," said original Columbia Pictures head Harry Cohn. (The infamous quote was directed at William Holden and Glenn Ford in 1939.) A sampling from the scores of legendary scandals: Jean Harlow and Clark Gable trysted here, Jim Morrison, high as a kite, leapt from a balcony, and John Belushi overdosed in one of the bungalows. Situated atop a hill and hidden by thick foliage, Marmont's lure is the feeling of seclusion, which is why everyone from Bogart to…

Not worth it unless they seat you outside
by Cannerob at Citysearch
It was a beautiful evening so we decided to eat in at the Chatueau Marmont's garden restaurant; however, when we got there they sat us in an inside room by ourselves ...insisting there was no room in the garden. But as we sat there we saw them seating lots of folks. And yes, I know they hold tables for folks staying at the hotel but the folks we saw were not. Anyway, what was really disappointing was the food and service...very poor.
- Pros: beautiful garden
- Cons: very mediocre food, poor service

Typical Hollywood restaurant with overpriced cusine, poor service and a fake facade
by hangerone at Citysearch
This review is not for the hotel, but for the restaurant within the Chateau Marmont. We were a party of 5 seated promptly. The atmospehere in the Chateau Marmont is whimsical and sophistcated which I hoped would bring a great experience, but at the end of the meal I was greatly dissapointed. Everything took forever, our reservations were at 7:30Pm and we didn't leave until 11:00PM. I had thought the entrees would have been worth the wait, but when they arrived there wasn't anything to remember. We had to finally go to the front to acquire our check and pay the $400 tab. The Chateau Marmont restaurant is just another Hollywood restaurant with overpriced food, poor service and a false reputation.
- Pros: Atmosphere
- Cons: Service, Food
