Hotels Own Introduction
A Reimagined Luxury in the Heart of Downtown Los Angeles
With the glow of city lights and vintage brick as its backdrop, Downtown Los Angeles Proper transforms a historic Broadway Corridor landmark into a modern 147-room destination hotel. Designed by the visionary Kelly Wearstler, the hotel blends the building's storied past with contemporary style, featuring vintage influences and local art throughout.
Culinary Excellence
The hotel boasts two destination restaurants created in partnership with James Beard Award-winning chefs Suzanne Goin and Caroline Styne (of Lucques, a.o.c., and Hollywood Bowl Food + Wine). Guests can also enjoy an intimate library-lounge for relaxing moments or head to the city-view rooftop for a refreshing dip in the pool and drinks at the lounge-bar-restaurant.
One-of-a-Kind Suites
Among the hotel's unique offerings are two standout suites—transformed from the building’s former basketball court and indoor pool, these spaces celebrate the structure’s sporting club heritage with a distinctive twist on luxury.
