I've been to LA twice and seen some Eagle sights. It's lots of fun!
Of course, Dan Tana's and the Troubadour are obvious choices. If you go to Dan Tana's, look for the little piece of railroad hanging on the wall. It is a piece of the railroad that used to go down the middle of Santa Monica Boulevard, and was donated by Don and Glenn to the restaurant to remember the days they hung there, before "the tracks that ran down the boulevard" got rolled away. If you're gonna eat there, be prepared to shell out. It's expensive. Check out
their menu to get an idea.
The Troubadour is right next door. You'll see Eagles stuff hanging on one of the walls. It's small and dark, but if you squint you can imagine Don is sitting at his favorite stool in the middle of the bar or Glenn is over at the corner table eyeing the guys who, at the time, were more famous than he was, wanting to be like them.
Drive up Mulholland and you'll pass the Coldwater Canyon and Laurel Canyon areas where the guys used to live.
The Beverly Hills Hotel, which is the hotel on the cover of the
Hotel California album, is a must-see as well (as you've already said). I've only driven by, though.... never had the guts to walk inside such a posh place.
And yes, I know Don condemns it but.... check out the
Sunset Grill on Sunset Boulevard! They make great shakes! It's a bit hard to find because the place is pretty small and the sign is high up. The parking is awful, but it's worth the effort. It looks nothing like it used to and it doesn't have the atmosphere that Don sang about, but it's a landmark nonetheless, whether he likes it or not! It's also next door to a Guitar Center with a "Walk of Fame" in front of it, which you might appreciate, Maleah.
You can also drive by the
Eagles offices on Glendon Avenue, but they're just part of a generic looking complex.
While these aren't technically Eagles-related places, I also recommend you hop by the
Rainbow Bar and Grill and the
Roxy. They might not be in their prime anymore, but they've got a lot of musical history there. They're also located right next to each other.
I gave a brief review of my adventures with Dreamer and PLS in LA here - it may help:
