Product Information
* LA Times Bestseller* *An Amazon "Best History Books of 2019 So Far" Pick* "Fascinating, dishy, and glimmering with insight." --Cheryl Strayed "A fabulously fizzy account." --Vanity Fair "I want to live inside this book " --Taylor Jenkins Reid The definitive history of Hollywood's most iconic, storied, and scandalous hotel For ninety years, Hollywood's brightest stars have favored the Chateau Marmont as a home away from home. An apartment house-turned-hotel, it has been the backdrop for generations of gossip and folklore: 1930s bombshell Jean Harlow took lovers during her third honeymoon there; director Nicholas Ray slept with his sixteen-year-old Rebel Without a Cause star Natalie Wood; Anthony Perkins and Tab Hunter met poolside and began a secret affair; Jim Morrison swung from the balconies, once falling nearly to his death; John Belushi suffered a fatal overdose in a private bungalow; Lindsay Lohan got the boot after racking up nearly $50,000 in charges in less than two months. Perched above the Sunset Strip like a fairytale castle, the Chateau seems to come from another world entirely. Its singular appearance houses an equally singular history. While a city, an industry, and a culture have changed around it, Chateau Marmont has welcomed the most iconic and iconoclastic personalities in film, music, and media. It appeals to the rich and famous not just for its European ambiance but for its seclusion: Much of what's happened inside the Chateau's walls has eluded the public eye. Until now. With wit and insight, Shawn Levy recounts the wild revelries and scandalous liaisons, the creative breakthroughs and marital breakdowns, the births and deaths that the Chateau has been a party to. Vivid, salacious, and richly informed, Levy's book is a glittering tribute to Hollywood as seen from inside the walls of its most hallowed hotel.

Reviews
"It seems half of Hollywood, past and present, have either lived, worked, had an affair, drugged, or died at the Chateau Marmont. Filled with show business stories and lore, etched against the backdrop of an ever-changing L.A., The Castle on Sunset gives the Marmont the splendid biography it deserves." --Steven Gaines , New York Times bestselling author of Philistines at the Hedgerow : Passion and Property in the Hamptons and The Sky's the Limit: Passion and Property in Manhattan "An irresistible, deliciously dishy deep-dive into the many lives of the storied Chateau Marmont, told in prose so witty and alive, you feel you're sitting at the bar with Dominick Dunne. This is a book worthy of its glamorous, alluring subject." --Wednesday Martin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Primates of Park Avenue and Untrue, "Fascinating, dishy, and glimmering with insight, The Castle on Sunset is a must-read for anyone interested in the rich and racy history of Tinseltown. Shawn Levy's entertaining and deeply researched biography of a building chronicles experiences both glamorous and sordid, historical and contemporary. This is the definitive book about Hollywood's most storied hotel." -- Cheryl Strayed , #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wild "Reading The Castle on Sunset , I felt like I was sneaking around the hallways of the Chateau after midnight and peering through keyholes in history. Shawn Levy pulls back the velvet curtains to reveal all the decadence, glamour, ghosts and gossip of a fabled and dreamy Hollywood. Lovingly researched and wonderfully dishy." -- Joe Hagan , author of the national bestseller Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine "The great chronicler of films and pop culture has done it again. With The Castle on Sunset Shawn Levy uncovers one of Hollywood's most elusive, and delicious, sagas--the life and times of the Chateau Marmont. For ninety years the grand, intimate hotel perched above Los Angeles' Sunset Strip has been the respite of choice for the world's most famous and notorious celebrities to sleep, work and indulge themselves in something like solitude.... As elegant and naughty as the hotel's guests, The Castle on Sunset tells a secret history of American film, fame, and decadence. It's a spellbinding read." -- Peter Ames Carlin , New York Times bestselling author of Bruce and Homeward Bound "An irresistible, deliciously dishy deep-dive into the many lives of the storied Chateau Marmont, told in prose so witty and alive, you feel you're sitting at the bar with Dominick Dunne. This is a book worthy of its glamorous, alluring subject." --Wednesday Martin , #1 New York Times bestselling author of Primates of Park Avenue and Untrue "It seems half of Hollywood, past and present, have either lived, worked, had an affair, drugged, or died at the Chateau Marmont. Filled with show business stories and lore, etched against the backdrop of an ever-changing L.A., The Castle on Sunset gives the Marmont the splendid biography it deserves." --Steven Gaines , New York Times bestselling author of Philistines at the Hedgerow : Passion and Property in the Hamptons and The Sky's the Limit: Passion and Property in Manhattan "For years, Shawn Levy has been shaming the rest of us who write about movies with his contagious high spirits, elegant phrasemaking, Stakhanovite appetite for research, and maddeningly natural reader rapport. As I write this, I am illegally parked on Sunset across from the Chateau Marmont, and--thanks to Levy's louchely addictive history of the place--the old girl looks lovelier than ever. Check in, call room service, draw yourself a hot bath and luxuriate!" -- David Kipen , author of Dear Los Angeles: The City in Diaries and Letters "[An] engrossing account of the L.A. hotel's 90-year history of decadence. Weaving together historical research and firsthand accounts, the author examines the transformation of the high-end apartment building into a world-famous hotel often inhabited by itinerant Hollywood directors and actors...This eye-popping and entertainingly lurid tale of Hollywood scandal and intrigue will delight readers." -- Publishers Weekly
