With each passing decade, every Hollywood icon of its generation from Greta Garbo and Clark Gable to Marilyn Monroe and James Dean has called it home. It has remained the hotel of choice for the entertainment industry, music, fashion and art world ever since. Within its thick, poured concrete walls and among its lush tropical foliage, it is still the favored hideaway of a clientele looking for the utmost in discretion, privacy, and excellent service with all of the warmth, personality and charm of a boutique hotel.
