The house
MarriottEasy Rider desert playground
The property runs as an energetic urban playground, trading typical coastal style for open-road biker grit and late-night bars.
What it’s good at
Listed
Houston Hospitality's eight-venue floor translates Los Angeles nightlife across from the arena.
What they say
Also in Wallpaper*.
The lobby lounge welcomes guests into an expansive space, featuring neutral rammed-earth walls contrasted with reflective mirrored columns, intended to evoke a desert mirage experience.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Crypto.com Arena and the Los Angeles Convention Center sit directly across the street, anchoring South Park's entertainment district.
The rooms
Distressed leather headboards mimic worn biker jackets, and bathrooms have elongated sinks carved from lava stone.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Submerged loungers line the eighth-floor pool deck, shaded by scalloped umbrellas with views across the downtown skyline.
The gym
Floor-to-ceiling windows look out over the downtown skyline from the treadmills and Peloton bikes.
Bar Moxy
The lobby bar doubles as check-in, serving craft cocktails beneath an angled mirrored canopy and terrazzo counter.
At the table
A cathedral-style cocktail bar glows behind stained glass, and the 34th-floor terrace looks out across the city.
How it began
The hotel opened in 2023 within a shared 37-story tower, conceived as the darker, nighttime alter ego of its sister property.
