Members club & hotel featuring art, rooftop pool, and dining
"Nick Jones’s members’ clubs have become a litmus test for an area’s cool. And while the other Soho Houses around Los Angeles are in hipper-than-thou Malibu and sceney West Hollywood, this iteration—a seven-story hotel and private club inside a huge early-1900s warehouse—plumped for a still gritty but rapidly gentrifying corner in Downtown’s Arts District with plenty of space to play: a rooftop pool, three restaurants and bars, and the huge two-floor gym (this is LA). Bedrooms have an intentionally homey, vaguely '70s feel with ceramic lights and plenty of plants, nodding to a time when the building was used as a recording studio. In keeping with the neighborhood—powerhouse gallery Hauser & Wirth and other indie outfits are nearby—there’s art everywhere, from the loading-dock-entrance mural by Shepard Fairey to a huge acrylic number up on the roof by LA-based Australian Paul Davies to the pool chairs covered in a custom print by local illustrator Ethan Lipsitz. Even graffiti tags from the days when the warehouse lay abandoned are preserved. For those who thought Soho House was (whisper it) losing its cred, this is a sneakers-and-skateboard example that it still has its finger firmly on the pulse. —Krista Simmons"

"Soho Warehouse DTLA — One Key Downtown Like the other Soho House locations it’s a club first, and a hotel second, but overnight guests earn the benefits of temporary membership — this means access to the 50-foot rooftop swimming pool, as well as the House’s public spaces, including the Rooftop Terrace and Bar, the House Kitchen, and the Garden, an impressive indoor-outdoor dining and drinking venue. There’s art everywhere, including a massive mural by Shepard Fairey, and the lavishly outfitted gym spans two floors of the building." - The MICHELIN Guide

"A global members-only hospitality group built around lounges, spas, pools, screening rooms, hotels and restaurants that cater to a young, city-dwelling creative class willing to pay significant annual dues for access and networking. Founded by restaurateur Nick Jones in the mid-1990s, the operation expanded from a single three-story club into dozens of houses and a portfolio of public restaurants and e-commerce offerings; it went public in 2021 and later attracted major investment and leadership changes. Membership is tightly curated by member-led committees (with a stated “no‑assholes” rule and strict no-press/social-media policies), yields long waiting lists, and comes in tiers and regional pricing with discounts for younger applicants. The brand prizes timeless, locally inflected interiors designed by an in‑house studio, runs restaurant and hospitality training programs, and balances exclusive club revenue with a growing public-restaurant business that both broadens the audience and serves as a recruitment ground for staff." - Monica Burton
