Conrad Hotels & Resorts expands Americas portfolio

Hilton’s Conrad Hotels & Resorts announced its debut in California with the signing of Conrad Los Angeles. The hotel is part of Related Companies’ mixed-use development, The Grand LA, designed by Frank Gehry, located in downtown Los Angeles.

Expected to open in 2022 and managed by Hilton, the hotel will include 305 guestrooms, a spa, an elevated indoor/outdoor lobby and a rooftop terrace with private pool deck. The property will also have 12,000 square feet of meeting and event facilities with integrated technology capabilities as well as a fitness room for guests.

The Grand LA will include 176,000 square feet of retail and dining space, more than 400 residences and a large public plaza with a series of landscaped, open terraces that will host free arts programming throughout the year, including live concerts. Several of the city’s most prominent cultural venues are within walking distance, including The Broad, Walt Disney Concert Hall, Museum of Contemporary Art, Grand Park, Colburn School and The Music Center. 

“With Los Angeles experiencing its largest downtown development boom in nearly a century, we believe 2022 is the right time to introduce such a dynamic hotel and exciting development to this cultural epicenter,” said Danny Hughes, EVP and president, Americas, Hilton. “We’re thrilled to continue to expand Conrad’s footprint in the Americas and have the opportunity to bring this empowered and design-forward brand to a new market.”
