Lombardi House
Lombardi House

This historic Hollywood farmhouse isn't just one of the city's most stunningly maintained homes; it's also one of the city's best event venues, and it's right in the center of the city (but you'd never know it, once you're on the property). Popular for weddings, concerts, dinners and more casual soirées, the fully-gated grounds include a 7,000-square-foot home and lavish guest apartments, plus scenic fruit trees and gardens. Don't worry about your guests having to find parking along the neighboring Hollywood Boulevard—there's plenty of space past the gates.
