The Standard, Downtown LA

$-$$, Downtown


Fodor's Review:

Built in 1955 as Standard Oil's company's headquarters, the building was completely revamped under the sharp eye of owner André Balazs. The large guest rooms are practical and funky: all have orange built-in couches; windows that actually open; and platform beds. Bathrooms have extra-large tubs. The indoor-outdoor rooftop lounge has a preening social scene and stunning setting, but be prepared for some attitude at the door. Daytime traffic, the nightly bar scene and 24/7-open coffeeshop make some rooms noisy. Rudy's barbershop on the ground floor specializes in updated do's.
