Sunset Tower

Sunset Tower is a hotel on Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, United States, offering 81 rooms and suites across 15 floors. Floor-to-ceiling windows in each accommodation open onto views over Los Angeles and the surrounding hills.

Architect Leland A. Bryant designed the building in 1929 as a reinforced concrete luxury apartment hotel. The doors opened in 1931 to the first residents and guests during the growth of Hollywood in that era.

The Tower Bar and Restaurant occupy the former apartment of a resident who lived there in the late 1930s. A strict no-photography rule today protects the privacy of celebrity guests who favor the spot for quiet dinners.

The hotel sits centrally on the Sunset Strip, allowing walks to nearby shops and venues. Guests reach the rooftop pool by elevator and find fitness facilities inside the building.

John Wayne once brought a cow to his penthouse at 3 AM, explaining that guests should get their cream straight from the source. The hotel staff later had to escort the animal back out and quietly restore order.
