"This historic hotel has been around since the early 1900’s. Once owned by Charlie Chaplin, it was built a few years after MGM, the first major film studio, was formed. The first two floors were home to Harry Culver’s office, and his statue still sits outside of the front door. There’s live jazz in the lounge and food is served in the restaurant daily, but we usually opt for happy hour in the outdoor patio." - Rapt Studio
"Hundreds of movies and television shows have been filmed at this legendary 100-year-old flatiron building. The hotel’s lounge is still teeming with that old Hollywood glamour and serves as a perfect place to people-watch. Settle into a tufted leather banquette as you savor the Christmas in Culver, a warming blend of Sauternes, squash velouté, grenadine, and fresh lemon with Ketel One vodka, sure to bring a twinkle to your eye." - Bernadette Machard de Gramont
"Le Jardin is the open-air restaurant at the Culver Hotel, serving up Happy Hour cocktails, and a dinner menu involving options like fresh-made tagliatelle olio, foie gras torchon, and beet tartare. They’ve also got weekend bottomless brunch." - brett keating
