The Bonaventure Hotel - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I think one of the reasons I liked this show was because I've stayed at the hotel where they "work". It's pretty famous, actually (IMO, anyway) and it's called the Bonaventure Hotel in LA. I stayed there with my dad. I don't have many memories of it to be honest except that my dad and I got into an argument while we were there.

I believe it was maybe during the show's run, but I'm not sure.

It's a Westin Hotel now (still called The Bonaventure) and it looks really nice. Maybe I should plan a trip to LA!

It's been used for various film/tv productions. I watched the 1995 Johnny Depp film Nick of Time last night where a good chunk of the movie was filmed at the hotel.

I stayed there maybe 7 or 8 years ago. It’s pretty dated inside - lots of concrete.

Oh I know it's pretty famous. I'd be curious to stay there now because I don't really remember much about it

Nick of Time is a great movie.

The hotel is also featured in the Eastwood thriller "In the Line of Fire"

There’s are plaques at the elevator banks listing the names of the productions that were filmed there.
