The Line Hotel in Koreatown mixes industrial chic with a vibrant energy, offering bold rooms, a lively rooftop pool, and a culinary scene that celebrates local flavors.
"The James Beard Foundation’s Taste America culinary series will host a dinner at the Line Hotel, featuring chefs like Lord Maynard Llera, Max Boonthanakit, Lijo George, and Danielle Duran-Zecca. Tickets range from $150 to $225 for VIPs." - Mona Holmes
"With flourishing verdure and plenty of concrete, the lobby bar at the Line falls somewhere between a Brutalist oasis and something out of Jurassic Park, and it’s the perfect place to settle for a drink or two at happy hour." - Rebecca Roland
"Picking up influences from the Korean and Latin communities that comprise Koreatown, it's clear Roy Choi put a ton of thought into the dynamic food and drink spots at The Line - one of LA's coolest hotels. While POT, Commissary and Poketo warrant their own reviews, there are still a number of rad elements in the hotel, specifically Choi's CaFe, a buzzing hub of tasty sweets (that espresso cookie tho') and coffee drinks. Both CaFe and the rooftop pool outside Commissary are open to the public making it a clutch spot for a last minute meeting or a first date." - The HR Dept
"'I would take the 405 to the 101 for you' is one among many charming quips you'll read amongst the pithy stationary found at Poketo, a boutique shop at The Line Hotel. Initially an online concept seeking to make everyday art & design accessible to the people, this is the second retail location for Poketo (the other is on 3rd and Wilshire). Just beyond the hotel lobby, marble floors and unstained, wall-to-wall wood shelving cement the luxury meets artist pop-up vibe. If you're looking to peruse wares made by a variety of up-and-coming makers and local collaborators, or want to blow some hard-earned scratch on things you don't need but MUSTHAVE, go to there." - The HR Dept
"The Line LA is not only a great base for exploring the city's hip Koreatown neighborhood, but it's also a destination in and of itself. The hotel's revamped midcentury building features a raw but polished aesthetic (think exposed concrete custom furnishings and original art), a great restaurant by renowned chef Josiah Citrin, a cafe, an outdoor pool, and multiple bars including the '80s-themed Break Room 86 (complete with private karaoke chambers)." - Travel + Leisure Editors
