Trendy L.A. landmark is a downtown home for exploring the city
This hotel really does set the standard for "urban cool" in L.A. Cutting-edge design and a dynamic vibe fill every inch of the hotel, from the swank lobby to the ultra-stylish rooms. Guests are dazzled by the super-cool Rooftop Bar, trendy 24/7 brasserie, and sexy, artful decor. Los Angeles cultural and recreational destinations, such as the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, the Museum of Contemporary Art, The Staples Center and more are just blocks away.
Highlights
- Rooftop Bar offers spectacular downtown views and chic design
- Stylish guest rooms with glass-encased showers and platform beds
- Ultra-convenient downtown location near major cultural destinations

Features
The grand lobby's dazzling 125-foot fuchsia Omnibus sofa by designer Vladimir Kagan is only one detail in the visual feasts that fill this hotel. The lobby also includes a conceptual Jenny Holzer art installation, an Alexander Calder-inspired mobile, billiards table, a 15-time zone clock encased in stainless steel, and, of course, a full-service bar and lounge.

Nightclub in my room
I hate that they had a "bouncer" to get into the room elevators. Everyone had to check in to get into my room. Sometimes I had to go down and get them. What's the point of getting a large room if you can't have people in it. It was like getting into a night club, it was ridiculous. The rooms are cool looking and modern, but that kinda dampered my night.

Good choice for conferences/events/ business downtown
Location very convenient, rooms clean and comfortable, if a bit sparse. (A kettle for coffee/tea in the morning would be nice.) Internet service was flawless and with very good throughput.

Party hotel
Not your chilled romantic getaway on a Saturday night. Is more of a LA party scene place. Fun if this is what you are up for.

poor website
Good hotel, Bad website
The hotel experience was fine. My issues were with the website I booked the room with. their name has to do with what a planet does around the sun. I booked this room for an employee and provided a corporate Credit card to pay for the room. When my employee tried to check in he was told there was a problem with the card and he ended up having to use his personal card in order to check in. Very unprofessional folks. Don't bother with the discount. I will not be using this website in the future.

standard.
Great design, fun atmosphere. Free wifi appreciated. Drinking water would have been nice, either in the room or down the hall. At the roof bar, $8 beer in a small plastic cup seemed a bit much.
