Occupying what was once the United Artists building- the tallest in the city when it was built in the 1920s- the new Ace Hotel has breathed fresh life into one of Downtown's most historic addresses. Read more

Favorite hotel in Downtown LA. The rooms are great, though I'd recommend upgrading to one with a balcony . Verve Coffee is just around the corner, Tanner Goods and APC too for some light shopping.

Nicole Wheeler

Always love Ace Hotel . Every detail is spot on & it's a hub of activity. The DTLA location proved to be SUPER loud - the bar above us was completely audible all night long. Impossible to sleep.

You can sip the 2013 Saved rosé from Oakville while observing model-like urbanites parade about in swimsuits. Made with grenache, the pink wine has touches of tangerine and green apple . Read more

It's all about the too-big-to-be-true Five Leaves Burger , topped with a sunny-side-up egg , harissa mayo , grilled pineapple , and pickled beets . Read more

I can’t claim to tell you whether or not it’s still as cool as it once was, but I enjoyed my stay. Comfortable room , classic Ace style, and good food and beverage options.

JY GB

We love the laid-back atmosphere. Staff is great, and the rooms are quite large. Interior decoration is industrial meets hipster . A must stay if you like this.

kelsey karson

We stayed here (along with all of our out-of-town guests) for our wedding and are so glad we did. Staff and food were both great, rooftop can't be beat.

"In the neon glow of the 'Jesus Saves' sign, the rooftop bar at Ace Hotel is a striking crow's nest from which to fully take in the Bladerunner lights of Los Angeles’ old-new Downtown." –5 Every Day Read more

Fodor's Travel

Mixing Art Deco and Spanish-style influences like carved wood, colored tile, and metal spires, the hotel décor is minimal, modern California aesthetic, a mix of traditional and contemporary .

Nick D'Ambrosi

Trendy hotel with thoughtfully designed rooms & helpful staff . Check out the bar on the roof and have breakfast in the restaurant downstairs!

Johnnie Skywalking

Relaxing room, great view rooftop bar , perfect location to enjoy cool vibe of DTLA.

Ilke

I loved the atmosphere and the room as I enter. There is a guitar in the room ❤️ All details are to the point: we're living in a studio!

Curbed

Boasting sweet views of Downtown, the rooftop bar at the Ace Hotel comes with a better than average set of cocktails . The crowd seems to be one that's usually more than eager to party and mingle. Read more

James Alexander

Ground floor restaurant is always good. Opens 6am for you early birds. Sit in mezzanine for a bit more privacy if you're a celebrity 😎

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant

LOVE everything about the Ace downtown - restaurant , coffee shop ,rooftop pool and bar . TOTALLY AWESOME!!

Billy Amp

Great music venue . Not too small or not too big. Perfect for the Smashing Pumpkins ! 👍

Silvia Butta Calice

Most beautiful, stylish hotel I have ever been to. Amazing rooftop , amazing staff , rooms are clean and well furnished

Kathia Concepcion

Let me say that upstairs is an excellent bar . They have the greatest cocktails 🍹 you have got to try the Queen E. cocktail is mind blowing

Jeremiah Newton

The view is to die for, come for the food and drinks, and stay for the sunset views !

Jules

Amazing hotel , rooms, rooftop , vibes.

Nate S

Disclosure: I used to love the Ace chain (Been to Portland, NYC, London), but I think now, in 2018, it all feels dated. Rooms are too over-designed to be practical (had to call for an ironing board).

Ben K.

Another great Ace (for hanging out at least). The restaurant LA Chapter is by the Five Leaves guys in Brooklyn. Rooftop is really nice. Wouldn't suggest staying here as the rooms are small and noisy .

Brett R.

Okay location and cool aesthetic, though a smaller room than I expected. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

emily chen

This is my favorite Ace (don't tell NY). Take the time to look up the history of the building and the theatre .

Really cool designed rooms. And an amazing burger on room service . It's the place to be in LA.

Adam Schuit

Amazing decor and good vibes. Check out the rooftop for great drinks and views .

Dee Phunk

The restrooms on the roof are probably the nicest I've ever set foot in as far as public establishments go. You may laugh at this but I take these things kinda seriously.

Roger Ma

Grab a punch bowl at their rooftop bar !

Ms Helene

Hear the bar upstairs and the street downstairs. Gym has 4 pieces of cardio & weights.

Aprile Elcich

Checked in for one quick night, but the pool was closed for an event 😩 Not very much common space. Rooms are lovely though and the food was great.

Meeshell

A lil too hipster for me. Rooms are small and dark. Black steel. A lil prison like. They even have soap on roap

The entrance for the roof is the door on the right side of the building. Take the elevator up, and get a frozen drink . Read more

Dina Fierro

Flawlessly designed down to the pencils and paper in room, pity that the room otherwise resembles a cold, dark, hipster prison cell.

John Torres

Edgy joint with a nice whisky selection and decent prices.

Fatma Genc

Get a room on the higher levels - inspiring views !!

Pamela Ocampo

Please have the grilled octopus and the sea bass as well at the restaurant . Delicious!

Fresh

Friendly and nice design

Daniel Howells

Can't say much for the hotel itself but the rooftop bar on a quiet sunny day is terrific.

Abi Panicker

Rooftop bar that's popular on weekends. If you don't go early you will have to wait in a line .

Maya Byrne

Small rooms. In room snacks and alcohol hop and priced great! Very standard “ace hotel ” feel though

Pamela Ocampo

Modern, cool and real place downtown. Great view !

Sam Schoesler

Cool vibe and there was live music while we were there - fun times.

Benson Bleier

Great vibes. Bad drinks

maximus the ruler

Bartenders on the rooftop are *excellent*, but the place needs a few more ... super long waits for drinks.

Jacinte Faria

AVOCADO TOAST ! DO IT!

Victoria Santoro

The chicken sandwich is TOO GOOD.
