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

Barlo's barn-to-belly theme surfaces at all meals and is much appreciated by local hipsters, but be sure to make reservations on weekend eves.
Gayot "Overlooking famous Muscle Beach, this boutique-style hotel is just a few blocks away from the dining and shopping of busy, trendy Abbot Kinney and close to the historic Venice canals."
BlackBook "No longer a Best Western, but still vibrant colors and bits of local flair. In the morning, rooftop brunchies, at night, rooftop drinkies."
Zagat "This stylish Joie de Vivre boutique hotel sits on the edge of the boardwalk, in the heart of zany Venice Beach, offering smallish rooms with a bigger view."
