Summary
Back in print after two decades, the story of Hollywood’s most exclusive hotel and its star-studded guest list

Raymond Sarlot bought the Chateau Marmont in 1975, but what was originally a business purchase became a love affair as he delved into the hotel’s incredible history. From its perch overlooking the Sunset Strip, the glamorous Marmont reigned for decades as the spot for artists, writers, musicians, and actors of every stripe and remains a home-away-from-home for A-listers like Scarlett Johansson and Johnny Depp. Here, Sarlot and coauthor Fred E. Basten share a wealth of scandalous and intriguing tales about them all, from the stars of Hollywood’s Golden Era like Jean Harlow and Grace Kelly to idols of the sixties and seventies like Jim Morrison and John Belushi (who tragically died there in 1982).  

            Whether your obsession is Hollywood history or celebrity gossip, Life at the Marmont has plenty of gripping, juicy stories to fascinate.

For someone who is in their 80’s and knows who the heck these old time Hollywood stars are, you might find this book interesting. I’m in my 50’s and there wasn’t enough about the stars I wanted to hear about. I found it boring. I was looking for the icons of my era, so might not be fair review for another listener. I also fast forwarded through much of it, so who knows what I missed...
