"Housed in a huge early-1900s warehouse in a still-gritty but quickly gentrifying corner of the Downtown Arts District, this seven-story hotel and private club proves Soho House still has its finger on the pulse, with a rooftop pool, three restaurants and bars, and a massive two-floor gym that feels perfectly at home in LA. Bedrooms have an intentionally homey, vaguely ’70s feel with ceramic lights and plenty of plants recalling the building’s days as a recording studio, and I’m constantly struck by the art everywhere—from the Shepard Fairey mural at the loading-dock entrance to a big acrylic piece on the roof by Paul Davies, custom-printed pool chairs by Ethan Lipsitz, and even preserved graffiti tags from when the warehouse was abandoned—creating a sneakers-and-skateboard vibe that restores the brand’s cool-kid cred." - Paris Wilson

"Part of a Downtown-and-Hollywood quartet we flag for having some of the coolest, best-executed public spaces in any U.S. city; expect rooftop lounges, pools, gardens, restaurants, bars, and inviting, Bohemian design by stars like Kelly Wearstler." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Awarded one Michelin key as a hotel offering a very special stay, this DTLA property is recognized for its interiors and design, dependable service and comfort, and a character suited to its urban setting." - Stacey Lastoe
"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
