111 Rising above the Sunset Strip is the Chateau Marmont, the legendary, castle-like hotel that made headlines in 1982 as the place where comedian John Belushi died, after injecting a "speedball" of heroin and cocaine.

That may have been the first time most people heard of the Chateau Marmont, but the little-known hotel has long been popular with show biz types who prize their privacy.

Built in 1929, the hotel has played host to such celebrity guests as Errol Flynn, Bob Dylan, Clark Gable, Paul Newman, John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Jim Morrison, Marilyn Monroe, Boris Karloff, Carole Lombard, Mick Jagger, Ringo Starr, Jean Harlow, Sidney Poitier, Dustin Hoffman, William Holden, Jessica Lange, Led Zepplin, the Jefferson Airplane, Spike Lee, and Greta Garbo (who obviously wanted to be alone). Others stars have found the hotel an ideal spot for secret romances.James Dean and Natalie Wood first met at the Marmont, during a script rehearsal of "Rebel Without a Cause."
