The Sunset Marquis<\/a> is much more than just a hotel. For over 50 years, it has attracted rock stars, actors, models and globetrotters in search of a unique experience.<\/p>\n

The original Playboy Club was founded by George Rosenthal. The hotel soon became the unofficial HQ of legendary rock bands: The Doors, The Who, Led Zeppelin… Then, from the 70s to the 90s, it was the turn of Blondie, The Clash, Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Aerosmith. Elton John, Phil Collins and Julio Iglesias were also present.<\/p>\n
