Chateau Marmont: Hidden Luxury in Plain Sight

Tucked above Sunset Boulevard, just minutes from the energy of Hollywood Boulevard, Chateau Marmont stands as one of Los Angeles’ most iconic and discreet luxury hotel destinations. Since 1929, the Chateau has served as a retreat for actors, musicians, writers, and travelers who value privacy, character, and a slower rhythm of life. In a city built on spectacle, the Chateau offers something far more rare. It offers silence. It offers elegance. And, most importantly, it offers a kind of authenticity that never goes out of style.

While much of the property is cloaked in foliage and guarded from view, the real heart of the hotel is its pool. Set behind stone walls and surrounded by mature trees, the Chateau Marmont pool is where time seems to stall. There are no loudspeakers. No egregious branding. Just cold drinks, low voices, and the soft sound of water cutting through California heat. It is here that deals are made, ideas are formed, and guests find the kind of relaxation that can’t be staged.

This quiet, luxurious experience is exactly why Chateau Marmont has partnered with Robeworks for years. Even in 2025, the hotel continues to stock our signature Classic Robe in White in every suite and guest bungalow. The robe isn’t flashy or attention-seeking. It is, like the Chateau itself, designed with purpose. Constructed from high-quality terry cotton, the Classic Robe is made for durability, comfort, and understated elegance. It is what guests wrap themselves in after a long afternoon by the pool or a late-night shower before heading down to the bar.

The bar at Chateau Marmont is another cornerstone of the guest experience. It’s intimate, dimly lit, and layered with decades of stories. Regulars know which table is most private. First-timers immediately sense that they’ve entered a space that doesn’t bend to trends. You come here for conversation, not content. For a drink that doesn’t need to be photographed. For a sense of belonging that only places with real history can offer.

Choosing a Robeworks robe is a natural extension of that mindset. We design robes not for the moment, but for the experience that surrounds it. The Classic Robe in White, available now at Robeworks, is the same style used in some of the world’s most iconic hotels and spas. It is absorbent, breathable, and built to last. It belongs in places like Chateau Marmont, where tradition still holds meaning.

Whether you are visiting Los Angeles for the first time or returning to rediscover the quieter side of Hollywood, a stay at Chateau Marmont is a reminder that true luxury doesn’t shout. It invites. And when you bring a piece of that stay home with you—wrapped in a robe from Robeworks—you carry that invitation forward, day after day.
