The recently opened Hollywood Grande, which now occupies what was formerly the Thompson Hollywood, is set in the heart of Los Angeles' entertainment district, with midcentury design touches that channel a bygone era. The hotel features 190 guest rooms, including 16 suites — along with a rooftop lounge and a pool — all set across 11 stories, the hotel shared with TPG.
Guests are welcomed by the trellis-covered entrance, which leads to a lobby complete with a custom terrazzo floor, warm wood tones and plenty of greenery. A terrazzo-topped bar will serve up coffee, cocktails and bites.
The midcentury modern-inspired rooms combine vintage design with contemporary touches thanks to terrazzo bathrooms, funky pendant lighting, rainfall showers, floor-to-ceiling windows and smart TVs. Travelers are treated to Salt & Stone amenities along with curated honor bars.
