Los Angeles Athletic Club

Went for a DTLA 5th anniversary vacation, this was a great place to stay! The pool, sauna, jacuuzi were excellent for relaxation and I'd recommend using on day 1! The staff was very friendly and helpful as the place is big and has a kind of U shape for the athletic areas and access to the garage elevators from the first floor. Definitely get parking, well worth it and easy ticket in and out! View from the top level is also gorgeous (access on the west side of the building . The sports restaurant was decent for lunch, nothing special so a little pricey for what you get. The room was spacious, clean (save for a couple smudges of something on the curtains), and just keep in mind the place is old school so no 55" TV, but still usb charging alarm clock, big windows, thankfully only $3 water, nothing insane. Irons get hot fast so be careful of the setting. The pool area and locker rooms were incredibly clean, that's where the sauna, steam room, and jacuuzis are - everything you would need with a couch and TV area too. Daily lockers with settable combinations, tons of towels. Really the best part.

This was my first time at the club, and I was genuinely impressed from start to finish. The hotel itself is exceptional—elegant, comfortable, and one of the best I’ve ever stayed at. The athletic facilities are top-notch, offering everything you could need for a great workout. Room rates were surprisingly affordable for the quality and service provided. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, attentive, and professional, making the stay even more enjoyable. Between the facilities, the rooms, and the welcoming atmosphere, this place exceeded all my expectations and is easy to highly recommend.

Positive: The pool Negative: There was a used needle in the bed that my daughter was sleeping in!!!! And they wouldn?t comp out stay!

Rooms are incredibly dated & very small. The tap wasn’t attached properly. Bathroom felt dirty. Bed sheets not put on properly I’d say 3* is generous here. Parking is fine but if you have suitcases like me there is no help carrying it down / up stairs from anyone. Gym / sauna every time was over crowded I couldn’t get in the sauna one day. Wouldn’t reccomend this hotel.

My significant other and I spent a day and night here, and we are looking for excuses to come back again. The whole building and its rooms are beautiful and have a very classy, early 1900s aesthetic, instead of the average sterile gray or beige you expect in most hotels. The range of athletic amenities is remarkable; when you stand in the gym and see the pool below you, the track around you and all of the workout equipment and classic architecture, it's hard not to be impressed and motivated to workout. I think anyone who is fitness oriented or who appreciates classical style architecture will have a great time at this hotel. I'm looking forward to coming back and checking out all the rest of the resources here.

Great gym, lots of space and weight, plus full squat racks, up to 100lb weights. Sauna, steam room, all top quality. Rooms are nice, feels like it has heritage. The one downside is that when coming home at 1am, we were unable to get into the hotel even after pressing the ringer and waiting for 15 minutes, and couldn’t get in until someone else staying there came down to get their DoorDash order and opened the door for us.

I checked in to my favorite hotel today! Checking in was smooth and easy per usual! I came to have dinner at the Invention lounge and the food was spectacular! They had live jazz music and it was really good! I was impressed by how many people were there on a Sunday I had never seen it this packed on a Sunday! I want to highlight my waitress "Georgy" She was amazing not just to me but to everyone she interacted with! I also noticed she was helping serve like 50-60 people maybe more…… I think hard work is commonly becoming more and more rare so when I see it I love to shine light on it! This is still my favorite place!!!
