Bungalow at Chateau Marmont, Los Angeles

When you hear about the Chateau Marmont, it's usually sandwiched between words like Lindsay and Jessica, so you know it's a good place to get up to no good. This landmark Los Angeles hotel has seen a healthy share of illicit activity, and with a steady flow of celebrity clients, the staff is well trained in the art of discretion. (And let's face it, when George Clooney is at the bar, none of your fellow guests will be looking your way.) Book one of the cottages, preferably 87, 88, or 89, which are particularly secluded, or better yet, any one of the bungalows, which have their own parking spaces. Then make arrangements to stay put for the duration of your trip (or the rest of your life, if you're Howard Hughes). Whatever you need—massages, facials, dinner for two, laundry, or a crate of organic strawberries and chocolate sauce—will be delivered to your door, so there is no need to venture far from your bougainvillea-draped patio. Also, there's no need to be shy—the hotel boasts that the walls are soundproof.
