Hotel California
Seventies rock destination
Hotel California is a 1977 song by the American rock band the Eagles, and the album on which it appears.
The song's surreal imagery of a luxurious but inescapable destination has made the title a byword for any situation that's easy to enter but impossible to leave: This job is Hotel California—once you're in, you can never leave.
