"Being tucked away in the hills gives the Hotel Bel-Air an air of exclusivity that seems to be a magnet for celebrities. This iconic property has a restaurant on-site that’s open all day and serves everything from breakfast to afternoon tea to dinner. Stars are known to book a room, but diners can just come by for a meal without having to spend the night. Marilyn Monroe was known to be a regular at the hotel, along with King Charles (when he was still prince), Ralph Lauren, and more." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
