INSIDER TIPS
Careful when parking on the Strip—some areas do not have meters but you must still pay at the
kiosks. Be sure to read all signs and you won’t have any problems. You can also park at one of many
garages or public lots ($10-$20 /night).
Visitors to Sunset Plaza can park in the lots behind the plaza for free, but don’t stray away.

THE SUNSET STRIP
A BRIEF HISTORY
Though it’s often been portrayed in movies like
Sunset Boulevard, Almost Famous and Rock of
Ages, visitors say that nothing compares to
seeing the Sunset Strip up close and in person.
Bordered on the west by Beverly Hills and on the
east by Hollywood, this iconic stretch of Sunset
Boulevard features an array of world-class hotels,
nightclubs, restaurants, shops and spas.
ONLY IN WE ST HOLLYWOOD
Through the years, the Sunset Strip has seen it
all, starting with the seedy glitz of the 1920s,
when Prohibition fueled the rise of nightclubs
and speakeasies. Because West Hollywood was
not yet an incorporated city, this strip of Sunset
Boulevard was lightly policed, making the Strip
the perfect playground for the rebellious denizens
8
of early Hollywood. By the 1940s, swanky
nightclubs like Ciro’s, Trocadero and Mocambo
reigned supreme, attracting A-list celebrity
clientele like Marilyn Monroe along with less
savory characters like gangster Bugsy Siegel,
who called the Strip his stomping grounds.
In the 1960s, the Sunset Strip became the major
gathering place for the counterculture movement
in Los Angeles. Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and
Jim Morrison were fixtures of the Strip and the
surrounding West Hollywood landscape. The
Whisky a Go Go introduced go-go dancers to the
U.S. and propelled The Doors—who at the time
were the club’s house band—to fame and
notoriety. The Strip continued to be a major focal
point for the punk rock and new wave scenes
during the late 1970s, and it also became ground
zero for the colorful glam metal scene, hosting
bands like Mötley Crüe, Guns N’ Roses and
Poison throughout the 1980s.
TODAY
The Sunset Strip continues to launch new artists
and attract crowds to legendary music venues like
The Roxy Theatre, Whisky a Go Go and The
Viper Room. Meanwhile, swank hotel bars such
as Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel and
Skybar at Mondrian boast some of the most
popular and exclusive hideaways on the Strip.
The Strip isn’t all nightlife though; daytime
visitors will enjoy the high-end shopping and
alfresco dining of Sunset Plaza, one of the
hottest places to “see and be seen” in Los
Angeles. Experience the area entirely on foot,
taking in the fabulous Southern California
sunshine and spectacular city views. See why
visitors are drawn from around the world to
this eclectic destination.
DID YOU KNOW?
In 2012 a documentary titled Sunset
Strip was released, featuring interviews
with stars like Keanu Reeves, Johnny
Depp, Mickey Rourke, Dan Aykroyd,
Hugh Hefner, Sharon Stone and many
more. Get an insider’s look at the Strip
by streaming or downloading the movie,

The Sunset Tower Hotel was once an
apartment building that old Hollywood
stars like Marilyn Monroe, Bugsy Siegel,
Frank Sinatra and John Wayne (who kept
his cow on his balcony) called home.
ONLY IN WE ST HOLLYWOOD
After decades of notoriety, the Sunset Strip
continues to blaze its own path as a worldfamous cultural landmark, setting trends in
music, hotels, dining and shopping. This most
famous stretch of Sunset Boulevard begins and
ends in West Hollywood, and like the city it calls
home, it is constantly breaking new ground and
reinventing itself.
The Las Vegas Strip was named after the
Sunset Strip.
Sunset Strip boasts tall billboards that
are second only to Times Square in size
and cost.

West Hollywood has never been known for
following trends. It’s known for setting them, and
nowhere else is this more apparent than on Santa
Monica Boulevard.
This eclectic thoroughfare, which was once an
industrial strip of road dotted with film studios as
well as the Los Angeles Pacific Railway, connects
the east side of Los Angeles with the Pacific
Ocean, passing through Hollywood, West
Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Century City, West LA
and ending in Santa Monica. And while this street
goes through various personas as you head in
either direction, nowhere is Route 66 more diverse,
fun or pedestrian-friendly than the 1.9 mi/3.05
km stretch that runs through West Hollywood.
Route 66 was America’s main road in the 1950s
for travelers heading west, and today, you can
still see signage for Route 66. West Hollywood’s
portion of “The Boulevard” runs from La Brea
Avenue on the east to Doheny Drive on the west.
INSIDER TIPS
On Santa Monica Boulevard’s eastern side,
visitors can check out local favorite bars and
restaurants such as Laurel Hardware, Now
Boarding, The Hudson, Harlowe Bar and the
James Beard Award-nominated “seafood shack”
Connie and Ted’s.
Heading west, you arrive in the heart of West
Hollywood and discover unique celebrityfrequented restaurants, eclectic boutiques, coffee
shops, gyms and bookstores. With the rainbow
flags along The Boulevard, this area is where you
see firsthand the guiding principle on which West
Hollywood was built: the freedom to be yourself
and to live life your own way. Santa Monica
Boulevard is home to the most popular gay and
lesbian scene in Los Angeles, with popular gay
nightclubs like The Abbey, Flaming Saddles,
Micky’s, GYM Sports Bar, Fiesta Cantina
and Revolver, all of which are bustling on any
given evening. From upscale to laid-back, anyone
fits in when you’re experiencing Santa Monica
Boulevard in West Hollywood!
SANTA MONICA
BOULEVARD:
HISTORIC ROUTE 66

A BRIEF HISTORY
TODAY
Experience the West Hollywood Design
District, the heart of high-caliber design,
fashion, art, dining, beauty and more. Located at
the intersections of Melrose Avenue, Beverly
Boulevard and Robertson Boulevard, the
West Hollywood Design District offers a distinct
mix of global designer flagships, local boutiques,
art galleries, interior design showrooms and chic
eateries. This walkable district is an unrivaled
international destination for design savvy
professionals and sophisticated shoppers alike.
Home to more than 200 of the world’s finest
art galleries, furniture designers, fashion
boutiques, salons and spas, alfresco cafés and
fine restaurants, West Hollywood Design District
is known worldwide for its impeccable selection
of luxury products, services and experiences for
those seeking the very best.
Back in the 1950s, the neighborhood held only
a handful of shops, studios and cafés catering
to the design trade, and Ed’s Coffee Shop was
the place to meet fellow designers over a toasted
ham sandwich and a cup of joe. Later, in the 1960s,
businesses like Phyllis Morris Originals became
“designers to the stars” and brought more and more
style-seekers into the area, slowly transforming it into
one of the most distinguished design districts in the
country. As more design trade resources opened their
doors, the influx of artists, dressmakers, upholsterers,
dancers and musicians fleshed out the bohemian spirit
of the burgeoning design district.
Trends start here, with a unique mix of worldrenowned fashion retailers including 3.1 Phillip
Lim, Alberta Ferretti, Balenciaga, Christian
Louboutin, Moschino and Stella McCartney,
and a mix of local favorites including H. Lorenzo
(H-L-N-R), Jenni Kayne, Kitson and Maxfield.
The West Hollywood Design District offers
both the professional and amateur designer a
wealth of high-design inspiration. Interior design
showrooms such as Christopher Guy, Dennis
& Leen, Design Within Reach, J. Robert
Scott, Rose Tarlow Melrose House, Robert
Kuo, and RH West Hollywood emphasize
the impact of the district on the design world.
Art galleries including M+B Gallery, De Re
Gallery, Louis Stern Fine Art and Wall
Street Gallery also have a significant role in the
Los Angeles art scene.
When you’re ready for a break, enjoy the organic
coffee and people-watching at the trendy and hip
Alfred Coffee {In the Alley} or eco-friendly
coffee roaster Verve. Other great restaurants in
West Hollywood Design District to wind down
your day include the chic and elegant Cecconi’s,
vegan Mexican hot spot Gracias Madre, reality
show hotspot SUR Restaurant and the intimate
and classic Craig’s.
Spend a day in the West Hollywood Design
District and experience firsthand the quality,
style and service that make this the premier
West Coast design district.

The landmark upon which The Charlie resides today was first built and established in 1924 by the Ruth
Gordon family. Word has it that numerous movie star legends have roamed these grounds in the past,
living out their glorious days to the fullest. Charlie Chaplin, Marilyn Monroe and Gloria Swanson are
such legends who were believed to have called, at one point or another, these grounds home.
In 2002, threatened by redevelopment, this historical landmark was acquired by Menachem Treivush
and has since undergone a multimillion dollar renovation. By carefully preserving historical details
incorporating the technology of today and dedicating careful attention to detail, Mr. Treivush has
rapidly built The Charlie into the unique establishment that it is today. Since reopening to the public
in 2008, The Charlie has become known as the hidden gem of the legendary West Hollywood.

The Ramada West Hollywood sits on the site of the former Tropicana Hotel and Motor Lodge on Santa
Monica Boulevard—near the end of the famous Route 66. The famed rock 'n' roll refuge with the
black-tiled swimming pool, “The Trop” was where Jim Morrison lived, as well as Tom Waits, where
Andy Warhol filmed Heat , where Janis Joplin partied and where other residents included Blondie, Led
Zeppelin, Springsteen, Sam Shepard, the Clash, the Beach Boys, Elvis Costello, and Guns N' Roses. It
was a first stop on the way up the rock 'n' roll ladder, as well as a place to stay once you’d made it.
The big record companies grew on Santa Monica Boulevard and the Sunset Strip during this era and
made LA the rock ‘n’ roll recording center of America.
The Ramada West Hollywood was built on this hallowed site in the 1980s and is still a stopover
for the entertainment industry, as well as international leisure travelers. Given its provenance,
it’s understandable why the Ramada Plaza has become the de facto hotel for both the music and
entertainment business in West Hollywood.
