The Standard Hotel Hollywood

To characterize The Standard Hotel Hollywood as merely standard amounts to calling Hollywood just another town, as both share a larger-than-life affinity with their Sunset Strip location. With investors like Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio, expectations run high for this hideaway, which features 139 guest rooms and two suites with view balconies and such exotic decor touches as Astroturf, carpeted ceilings, and Andy Warhol print curtains.

Corporate events and business meetings at The Standard Hotel Hollywood are far from ordinary and take place in an eclectic mix of lounges, suites, or a 14-seat boardroom for indoor functions and a 400-capacity pool deck with city views for receptions. Guests in search of the quintessential Hollywood experience need only stroll up the block to The Standard's sister property, the Chateau Marmont.
