Figueroa Hotel
939 South Flower Street · Los Angeles, California 90015
Phone: (213) 627-8971
Gallery Coming Soon!
Casablanca collides with ancient Arabia at this lush watering hole in a ravishing garden setting overrun with bougainvillea, spiny cactus and succulents. Just a basketball’s throw from Staples Center, the Figueroa opened in 1925 as a YWCA and turned into a hotel after the depression. Oodles of celebrities frequent the place for pre- and post-concert parties, fashion shows and the like, but no one at the hotel crows about it, which is why the place has come to epitomize the ultimate in laid-back – even self-effacing – style. The ornately tiled bar with its flickering candles, well-worn wooden stools and tranquil blue pool are the perfect place to enjoy a mojito with fresh muddled lime.
