Ace Hotel Downtown, Los Angeles
Expert reviews
“Opened in early 2014, Ace Hotel Downtown is in the 1927 United Artists Building. The hotel tower has 182 rooms and a rooftop pool.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Los Angeles.
“A pioneering 13-storey hipster hotel with a halls of residence vibe in Downtown LA’s Gothic architectural icon on the Art Deco parade of South Broadway, itself still a mix of gentrification and dilapidation. Anathema to some, party central to Ace fans: this hotel places you at the very centre of DTLA’s action.”

Very good
Rooftop bar was very fun time- their daily events are worth a try. Limited drink options but good service. Interesting room set up; comfy bed and pillows. Best "mini bar" in room snacks for purchase I've had yet.
Shower had a little black mildew in and the TV or remote was not functioning correctly: volume would only go up and not lower than 10 which was very loud so it wasn't usable. 1 pillow had a large hard device on it (maybe Anti-Theft?) But I just put it out of the way

Fabulous
Good location, hotel was just cool, upstairs bar was super lovely and all the staff were really great and accommodating. Front desk staff were able to offer good recommendations of places to eat and visit.
Beds could have been more comfortable, nowhere to put a large suitcase of luggage so that it was decently out of the way.

Stylish and comfortable
Kettle provided, desk for remote work, spotlessly clean, beautiful decor in an old restored theatre. Gym and laundry facilities also appreciated!
Rooftop pool was only a very small dip pool – not a swimming pool. But still, a beautiful spot to while away some time!

Great location
Low level lighting over sink. I appreciate the overall mood lighting, but I need brighter lights over the sink

Pleasant stay
Our employees were staying at the hotel during a conference held in Los Angeles and they said that they were overall satisfied with their stay. Apparently initially they were a little bit shocked, as the "Urban Style" design of the room made an impression as if the room was still in the work - but after the first day they got used to it. The staff was lovely and the localisation was good.
The rooms were facing the street and weren't sound proof, so it was quite loud.

Adequate
Room was small but sufficient for an overnight stay. Parking was expensive. Roof top bar served every dish with chips - chips & guac; ceviche & chips; shrimp cocktail with chips. Bartender wasn't knowledgable. Asked for a Mai Tai and he asked if I wanted a classic one or a fruity one. I stated I wanted a classic one. What I got was not what I ordered. At time time ever does a Mai Tai have grapefruit juice in it. When I realized a couple of sips in that it contained grapefuit juice, I had to push it to the side. My medications interact with grapefruit juice. That was like $15 down the drain.
Pillows were hard and each of us only got one pillow. Shower knobs were difficult to figure out

Enjoyable stay in downtown L.A.
Very friendly staff and well equipped room. Have never seen a minibar well stocked like that :-) The rooftop is almost too popular for my taste but has a great view and good vibes.
Hard to find a seat at the rooftop in the afternoon and evening.

Very good
Beautiful building and style. Very clean and the stuff were very helpful and kind. The cafe downstairs is really cute and the rooftop bar too.
The area is a bit weird but well it's downtown LA so to be expected. There is a lot of noise both from the street but mostly from the rooftop as there are parties happening there.

Rooftop pool is amazing
The decore and aesthetic is fantastic. Rooftop pool in wonderful. Very good location. Staff were very friendly and super helpful. Happy hour on the rooftop was excellent.
The room was slightly on the smaller side would be our only comment.

An excellent hotel in a very cool cool part of LA.
We liked the retro feel of the hotel, the amazing theatre built into the place. Always something going on every night and the mood was very happy. The rooftop bar although quite small was really nice and the views of the city were excellent.
I would have preferred that the room had double glazing as the noise from outside at times was quite loud. a number time times throughout our stay the cars in the evening would be revving their engines or playing loud music, better windows would have mitigated against this. We'd also have preferred darker curtains but we managed pretty well.

Rooftop area was fun though hard to get a seat. Atmosphere fun overall. Suitcase hold while we explored was great. Staff lovely.
Beds should be higher (hard for older folks to get up and down). Coffee and Tea should be complementary. Continental breakfast would be even better. Neighborhood not safe for single female traveler.

Would definitely stay here again!
It was a very cool vibe & friendly staff!
Our room had only one window and it was facing a wall so the room was a bit dark.

4 stars
I’ve stayed at other Ace Hotels before. I love the vibe and it’s up my alley in terms of style and comfort.
the tv channels were all messed up and confusing; didn’t really make us feel relaxed
