With city lights and vintage brick as a backdrop, Proper re-imagines and updates an historic Broadway Corridor landmark into a 148-room destination hotel. Here, the creative vision of Kelly Wearstler seamlessly blends past and present with compelling design, vintage influence and local art. Essentials include two destination restaurants in partnership with James Beard Award-winning L.A. chef Suzanne Goin and Caroline Styne (Lucques, a.o.c., Hollywood Bowl Food + Wine, Larder Baking company); an intimate library-lounge, a city-view rooftop pool and lounge-bar-restaurant. Especially Proper are two singular, one-of-a-kind suites fashioned from the basketball court and indoor pool of the building’s sporting club past.

- rooms are clean, very functional and comfortable - location is especially good for parents/family visiting USC (can/Uber only 12-15 minutes) - the ground level restaurant is an excellent option for breakfast - the rooftop restaurant is also a great dinner option - I will be back!

I took my husband for a little staycation at the downtown Los Angeles proper hotel. It was really an outstanding experience on every level. Vanessa, the manager, made contact with me before our stay and made sure that my husband had a beautiful birthday experience at The Proper. Eric, in the restaurant upstairs, was so lovely and friendly. And there was also an Italian man who helped us at breakfast who was a class act. From the view of the city to the drinks at sunset, to the outstanding breakfast, the staff and environment of The Proper Hotel made us feel cared for and welcome. I’m hoping that this becomes a yearly experience for us.

Great location for DTLA. They really do their best to take care of you. Love the breakfast restaurant. I usually have business meetings there every time I come in town. Bed and sheets always super clean and comfy.

Fabulous stay! I love staying at The Proper DTLA. Valet is great, customer service in all areas is wonderful from the doormen to the front desk to the servers. I always enjoy my stay here and truly feel that they go the extra mile for their guests. Love the rooms and enjoy the restaurants. The rooftop is fabulous and has great food, especially the ceviche and the breakfast spot has the best scrambled eggs and chia parfait. Huge plus they do not use any seed oils in the restaurants. The bed is comfy and love the large waters they have for you in the room. It’s a short walk to CMC and The Fashion District and the feel very safe there when walking around or staying in the hotel alone. Thank you for another amazing stay!

I have reviewed the Proper in the past but wanted to write an updated review because the property is getting better. This hotel is simply fantastic if you like modern amenities in an historic and beautifully restored building. Staff is wonderful as well. I also like staying in downtown LA much more than other neighborhoods. The only reason I did not give it 5 circle is the fitness center is small and cramped.
