The Spotlight on The Live Hotel

Urban Vibes and Concert Nights in the Heart of LA

Modern and conveniently located, The Live Hotel puts you right between vibrant Koreatown and bustling Downtown Los Angeles. Perfect for concert-goers and city explorers, this sleek, completely non-smoking hotel offers comfort, style, and easy access to LA’s top venues and attractions. With a seasonal outdoor pool, free WiFi, and rooms outfitted with all the essentials—from flat-screen TVs to coffee makers and fridges—it’s a solid home base for your next music-fueled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a quick 5-minute ride from major venues like Crypto.com Arena and LA Live, making it easy to catch shows without the stress. The location offers a quiet retreat after the noise of a packed crowd, and late-night food spots in nearby Koreatown are plentiful. With secure parking for just $15/day and flexible access to downtown transit, late-night returns are hassle-free. Bonus: the rooms are surprisingly quiet for a city stay.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking to share a room close to the action
- Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list concert
- Couples planning a music-filled weekend getaway
- Fans who want a peaceful place to recharge post-show
- Budget-conscious music fans who don’t want to sacrifice location

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, rooms come with a coffee machine and fridge, and a microwave is available on request—perfect for late-night leftovers. The hotel is walking distance to Koreatown’s 24/7 eateries and downtown’s trendy cafes. You’ll find breakfast options nearby that cater to both early risers and late-sleepers.

Nightlife Options

Step outside and you’re minutes from Koreatown’s karaoke bars, speakeasies, and rooftop lounges. Downtown LA’s cocktail bars and music spots are just a short drive or rideshare away. While there’s no on-site bar, the neighborhood more than makes up for it.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s location and how close it is to concerts, shopping, and late-night food. The cleanliness and ease of check-in are also commonly praised. Reviewers often mention the value for money and the quiet, comfortable rooms despite being in the heart of LA.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the pool is seasonal, so don’t count on a swim year-round. The hotel doesn’t have on-site dining or a bar, but its location makes up for that. A few wish the rooms were a bit more updated, but most agree they’re clean and functional.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to a concert in downtown Los Angeles, The Live Hotel gives you a convenient, comfortable, and affordable place to crash just minutes from the music.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Dawn, Highland, visiting BMO Stadium

Not sure if this room was for handicap accessible or if all the bathrooms are like this but the shower was not enclosed at all from the toilet and we took one shower and the both the bathroom and four feet into the bedroom were soaked! It was disgusting - didn't drain at all. There were puddles all night, I have pictures too! I was appalled - I hope no one has to go through what we did. I walked through cold puddles to pee throughout the evening - it never drained. Super disappointed for $200 a night?! Unbelievably terrible on top of the hour and a half late check in. They let us park an extra car for the inconvenience and tried hard at a customer service level but the room, OMG, atrocious.

Liked: Location.
Disliked: Shower soaked the entire bathroom and four feet of the carpet!

Second time staying at the...

Liked: This was my second time staying in LA and at this property in the past 3 months. The location is excellent, near where I needed to be. Every time I come here, the staff are friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I was pleased that my accommodation booking was upgraded to room 203, a delightful room with an en-suite balcony. I used this space every day to read and enjoy the fresh air. I also really enjoyed overlooking the promenade with the string lights in full view. What a nice touch! I did not rent a car on my first visit, so I had no use for the secure parking amenities; however, this time I did rent a car, and I was thrilled to know the parking was gated. Finally, I really like that each unit has a personalized message on the TV screen as you walk into the unit and that each one is outfitted with a microwave, small fridge/freezer (major plus), and an ironing board. All around, nice touches. I will be coming back to stay in the future and will recommend this establishment to others who visit me from out of state.
Disliked: I stayed for two nights - I didn't need my bed or room turned for the second day. This not only takes additional time to complete, but also uses more electricity and labor.
