The opulence of the Ritz-Carlton Marriot in downtown
Los Angeles is of a world class level. The lobby employs
in laid stone, six chandeliers which descend like fireworks
high above the marble floors, comfortable lounge seating
as well as business style meeting areas. A variety of both
luxury class and working class options are available here.
The Mixing Room Cocktail Lounge allows for the single
after work crowd as well as the casual lunch engagement
to grab a quick seat and meet and greet friends & partners.
A deco style, creme colored motif with an early modern style.
Couches, barstools and seating with a low comfy vibe abound.
News, current events and sports stats are readily available
on two large screens, considering that ESPN is located around
the corner, it allows for sports fans to follow the pre and post
game stats for our local basketball and hockey seasons in L. A.
The Glance Wine Bar offers a variety of white wines, champagne
and a nice portfolio of Napa based Merlot , Cabernet & Pino Noir.
As well as a signature line of cocktails using Grey Goose, Hangar 1,
Hendrick' s and Cazadores Reposado. There is also an Illy espresso
bar when its time to get back to work, or re - write that first draft.
Espressos and a wide variety of latte' s and pastries are at hand.
The LA Market restaurant by Kerry Simon has an open air seating
arrangement which allows visitors as well as those living or staying
at the hotel to peruse where their expected guests and friends
as well as loved ones and associates are seated. There is an all
natural light ambiance which shines throughout the hotel lobby.
The outer structure of the building has a somewhat imposing
quality to the passerby , though upon entering the structure,
a refreshing and all modern space opens itself up and we are
in an international experience of both luxury & convenience.
Fabrics in orange, purple & mustard are peppered through a
mostly neutral base tone of creme, beige and brown marble
and stone floors and wall motifs. The classic stairwell as well
as escalators and elevators give one an option of how to travel
upwards. The entire hotel is bustling with clientele from around
the world and around the block. The Los Angeles skyline is visible
to the North, to the South the Nokia Theatre and the Convention
Center, to the East the more traditional and newer structures
which have gone up in the last decade & to the West, a lovely
sunset with the classic Palm Trees which make L.A. an identifiable
symbol for progressive architecture, business and lifestyles.
The new Los Angeles that wishes to compete with Dallas &
Miami is here. These large new hotels employ hundreds of
Los Angeles citizens whom are in need of a regular paycheck:
valets, receptionists, chefs, maids & guards. The World class
tourists & business persons will find this hotel fun & glamorous.
