Frommer's "Guest rooms are pretty minimalist in decor, but comfortable; half have views of the Strip (with blackout shades to deal with the flashing lights at night)." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"The famed Hollywood Hyatt House (aka Riot House) has been reopened as an Andaz, Hyatt’s mod urban brand." Full review

"It's no longer as hip or famous as its West Hollywood neighbors (the Chateau, Sunset Tower, and Mondrian), and the service can be spotty." Full review
Time Out "It's the perfect perch from which to sip on grown-up cocktails and gaze at the next generation of rockers partying on the Strip." Full review
Star Service "Don't let the sassy boutique feel fool you: This is a deluxe-leaning offering with service that steps a little higher than what you'll find at the more colorful Mondrian.

Gayot "Massive in size and raucous in reputation, this former Hyatt offers a sizzling hotel experience to touring rock bands, celebrities and tourists alike."
BlackBook "The glory days of the Riot Hyatt long gone, but nothing can take away location cachet. Still technically a Hyatt, but going under boutiquey Andaz label."
Zagat4.3
"The former "Riot Hyatt" – "legendary" for all the musicians who "trashed the rooms" here – this "modern", "swanky" Sunset Strip star with a "killer rooftop pool"."
Fodor's "On the north side of the Sunset Strip, the ANdAZ is a youthful update of the former Hyatt West Hollywood, catering to hipsters, techies, and rock stars." Full review
Afar Magazine "These days, the rock-star legacy carries on mostly in hotel lifestyle: free minibar snacks replenished daily, a personal everything-you-need Andaz Host, and the highest rooftop pool in L.A." Full review

Time Out "Housed in the former United Artists building, the hotel pays homage to LA's essence—a seamless harmony of California minimalism and downtown LA's signature art deco style." Full review
Star Service "Located six blocks south of LA Live, Staples Center and the funky and fashionable Figueroa Hotel, this is perhaps the tiny independent Ace chain's best offering to date." Full review

The Loft Suites are stunning, but avoid views over the noisy and unsightly construction site next door, at least until it is completed.
Gayot "Design is modern, simple and tasteful --- and in the case of the downtown L.A. Ace, it's also laced with a touch of history."
Zagat "The hyper-trendy Ace Hotel chain comes to DTLA, taking over the ornate 1927 United Artists Building, with its lobby built to emulate the grand movie palaces of the day."
Fodor's "L.A.'s newest hipster haven wears multiple hats as a hotel, theater, neighborhood diner/coffee shop, and series of lounges, where you can bar-hop by elevator." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "The result is an unabashed hipsters’ playground, from the wall lined with vinyl records behind the check-in desk to LA Chapter’s coffee bar serving Stumptown coffee across the hall." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"The ever-hip, buzzy, 182-room Ace is big on quirky details: Haas Brothers murals in the lobby and restaurant, whimsically themed cocktails at the rooftop bar and retro-inspired rooms." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Cool crowds flock for the mod rooms, the buzzing rooftop bar, the onsite cold-pressed juicery, and the spectacular theatre hosting indie bands." Full review
Oyster Upscale
"Music is the theme here, and many of the industrial-chic, dimly-lit rooms come a curated selection of vinyl records." Full review
Afar Magazine "Somewhere between a hip designer’s loft and a rock star’s party pad, the Ace Hotel Downtown Los Angeles is unlike anywhere else and the logical progression in the boutique hotel brand’s expansion." Full review
