History & Overview

Downtown LA Proper is the fourth hotel in Kelly Wearstler and Brad Korzan's Proper Hotel chain. The first Proper Hotel opened in San Francisco, followed by Santa Monica and Austin. This mid-luxury hotel occupies a 13-story brick building at the corner of 11th and Broadway in the South Park District. This area is home to both the Hoxton Hotel and the Ace Hotel. In the 1920s, this landmark was originally a private club. In the 1960s, it became a YWCA.

The vestiges of old club life are still visible, but only for the wealthiest hotel guests. These are the suites with a basketball court or indoor swimming pool.

Location

Downtown LA Proper is in the South Park District's center. It is a masterpiece of modern design that blends the past with the present. The 1100 South Broadway destination is a stunning mix of old and new. It turns a historic landmark into a stylish retreat for urban travelers seeking elegance and creativity.
