The 70th-floor Sky Lobby check-in offers the best free view in the city
Spire 73 is the tallest open-air bar in the Western Hemisphere
Rooms start on the 31st floor, so there are literally no bad views
Hitri pregled: A stunning skyscraper hotel where you'll spend half your stay waiting for elevators to transfer you between the street, the 70th-floor lobby, and your room.
Pregledano od @Arjayricafort949: I checked into the Intercontinental DTLA and that sunset view from the 61st floor blew my mind. The room is super modern with a killer bathroom setup. Even with the lobby wait, watching the city light up from bed made this staycation unforgettable.
Gost, ki je tu prebival, je dejal
The hype
The views are unbeatable and the rooms are modern, but the elevator logistics are a daily frustration.
Reality check
You will likely wait 10+ minutes for elevators during peak checkout times or when a conference is in town.
You are a view junkie who wants to see the Hollywood Sign from bed
You're in town for a convention at the nearby center but want luxury
You love rooftop bars and want priority access to the hottest one in town

Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though missed dust in corners is a common minor complaint.
Bathroom hygiene: High standard. Grout and glass are usually sparkling, though water pressure can vary on super high floors.
Maintenance: The building is relatively new (2017), so wear is minimal, but expect some scuffs in high-traffic elevator lobbies.
Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count sheets. Towels are plush but sometimes scarce—ask for extra at check-in.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature luxury hotel scent (white tea/thyme vibes); rooms are generally neutral but can smell stale if AC isn't running.

Dobro vedeti
The lobby is on the 70th floor; street entry is just a valet drop-off and elevator bank.
Spire 73 cover charge is included in your resort fee, but you may still need a reservation on weekends.
The gym (Attitude Fitness) is a high-end public gym on the 7th floor that guests get access to—it's better than a standard hotel gym.

Pogosta vprašanja in skriti nasveti
Vse, kar res želiš vedeti, preden rezerviraš.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the 7th-floor outdoor pool is heated and includes a hot tub, but it can get windy and shaded by the tower in the afternoon.
Can I walk to the Crypto.com Arena?
Yes, it's about a 10-15 minute safe walk down Figueroa Street.
Is there free parking nearby?
No. DTLA parking is aggressive. You can find cheaper lots ($30-40) a few blocks away, but on-site valet is the only convenient option.
Does the room have a coffee maker?
Yes, rooms typically come with a Keurig or Nespresso machine.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, pets are allowed (up to 40 lbs) for a non-refundable fee of roughly $125 per stay.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. The 'Dekkadance' buffet is expensive (~$44/person). Check if your booking rate includes it.
Notranji Nasveti
✨
If you are on the 31st floor, you might be able to skip the transfer loop by using the lower bank elevators directly (ask staff if this hack is active).
✨
The 'No Dive Bar' on the 7th floor pool deck is often quieter and cheaper than Spire 73.
✨
Use the 'The Bloc' shopping center across the street for cheaper eats and a Target for water/snacks.
5 stvari, ki jih morate vedeti, preden greste
💡The windows are often dirty on the outside—cleaning a 73-story building is a logistical nightmare.
💡You will feel your ears pop every time you take the express elevator to the 70th floor.
💡The bathroom privacy is questionable in some rooms; sliding glass doors don't always seal sound or sight perfectly.
💡The 'Resort Fee' includes laundry credit ($20) that is almost impossible to use effectively given hotel laundry prices.
💡The wind at the street-level entrance can be fierce due to the skyscraper wind tunnel effect.
