The Standard Downtown LA - Hotel Reviews from across the web

No title - expert review
Andr Balazs (New York's Mercer hotel, LA's Chateau Marmont and The Standard Hollywood) has given the Los Angeles business district a jolt. This cluster of bank and insurance company buildings, has always been deserted after 5pm. But now, at around 8pm, LA's beautiful young things begin filling the s...

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. (Some also have large plush t...

A new era of revitalization for downtown L.A. took off running with the opening of the downtown Standard hotel. Three months after the opening sleepover party (attended by Hollywood's finest clad in pajamas), most of the 207 guest rooms are booked at the weekends by fun-loving hipsters. During the w...

Open 24 hours, the restaurant at the downtown Standard hotel serves comfort food with an edge and the staff displays none of the snobbish attitude of the bouncers outside. The clientele is predominantly young and cool, undoubtedly headed for the rooftop bar of the hotel after their meal to check out...

It wasn't so long ago that downtown Los Angeles after six P.M. was a ghost town. This is the case no longer, and it's thanks in no small part to the Downtown Standard in particular, the rooftop bar, with its astroturf, topiary gardens and waterbed loungers, a fixture on the downtown nightlife scene,...

Absolutely awesome! Unbelievably sexy! Incredible 60s retro minimalist rooms, with nothing but seductive glass barrier between the showers and your bed(s)!

I don't get the reviews saying the service is rude or pretensious. everyone has been so incredibly nice. the rooms are a welome departure from what you probably have at home. the party at the bar is fun without being to pretensious. and againt he service has been great. they've remembered my name, a...

anyone else amused that this is deemed a budget hotel by editors of citysearch? - user review
I don't know...when I think of budget hotels, I think cheap. I think not the comfiest. I don't think upscale, ritzy, charge you up the wazzoo hotels whose only similarity to a budget is the fact that they self identify as the standard. Not that you shouldn't stay here. The rooms are artful and creat...

Great Hotel - user review
i love this place. it's so cool in the lobby. if you make it up to the roof bar, that is a really hot scene. for a more quiet drink have one outside by firepit. rooms are small and very basic but cutely decorated. don't stay here if you just like to be in your room. this is a hot and happening place...

Critic´s be Damned!!!! - user review
I recently visited the Standard for the first time, with a few of my co worker's... I must say that the service was extremely friendly... The frites were amazing...

Hotel Hype - user review
I was not impressed with the hotel at all, we didn't stay there but went for dinner. We barely saw our waitress once in the hour and a half we were eating and the food was so so. Oh they charged $20 for a wrist band for the pool area but there was no guarantee you'll even get in. The lobby area was ...

Downtown Nightlife - user review
I went only to the rooftop bar/dancefloor for a friend's birthday, and I really liked it. The art deco furniture was very fitting with the whole cityscape environment, and the view of Downtown LA was pretty amazing. The best part I would have to say, is the water bed spheres that you can bounce arou...

I with my frequent business stays in downtown I was thrilled to have a fun,hip alternative... However I am deeply disappointed with my stay. Desk clerks were rude and unhelpful.

In our stay at the Standard we were blown away, but also it is everything that you think about LA all packaged up into one building. It is like a circus, with really plastic, really beautiful people walking around in various looks of clothes. It is a really cool place, but also weird all at the same...

The Standard Hip or Hype - user review
Recently stayed at this supposedly hip hotel for the weekend. It was without a doubt the worst hotel experience I have had. The service is beyond horrible.

I really enjoy this hotel - user review
The downtown Standard is a great hotel. Valet, bar drinks, room service, and the restaurant can be a little pricey, but the room rates are relatively low so it balances out. The decor of the hotel is very cool and the rooms are very modern. And while the reception staff are not overly friendly, they...

The Party is Amazing ... The Staff isn´t - user review
The Standard Downtown's rooftop bar has breathtaking views of the surrounding highrises, a lighted pool, a fireplace, and waterbeds where guests can mingle amongst the crowd or find an intimate nook. A limited number of wristbands are issued to the roof, which means it doesn't get too crowded. That ...

Staff are jerks - user review
The title says it all. I think it's a prerequisite for working here; only complete A holes need apply. I've stayed here 4 times, swearing that I wouldn't again each time, but it's actually a fun place otherwise. So, if you can get over the overly rude staff, then you'll have fun. Great rooftop bar a...

Great party scene; not so great hotel - user review
This hotel is worth visiting for the rooftop bar scene alone. The rooms themselves are a different story altogether. Rooms come equipped with virtually no amenities (shampoo and soap were thrown in, but that's about it). There is no wall dividing the bathroom from the bedroom; there's just a glass b...
