I am not a fan of hip, boutique hotels. I like bigger, more traditional operations that offer lots of the usual array of hotel services. Hip hotels with DJ’s in the lobby, podcast booths and legions of gen z’ers hanging out in the lobby are not appealing to me. But this hotel was well-located and well-priced and I like The Line in DC, so I figured why not give it a try. The interiors are very modern with heavy (brutalist) concrete hallways and ceilings and an eclectic collection of carpeting. draperies, etc. The rooms are fairly minimalist and small, but the bed and bed linens were very comfortable and the space was manageable. I had a large floor to ceiling window with a distant view of the “Hollywood” sign. I didn’t hear a peep of hipness or partying while in my room. I actually enjoyed a very good cup of coffee in the lobby surrounded by vloggers, bloggers and podcasters….but I was okay. Enjoyed walking around Koreatown quite a bit. It’s a tad gritty, but there’s lots of authentic restaurants and shops. Best thing about this hotel was that it featured the first or second best shower i’ve ever enjoyed. The water pressure was beyond anything I’ve ever enjoyed in any US hotel and there was plenty of hot water to boot. The shower curtain instead of glass was the only disappointment. I would be happy to stay at this property the next time I am in LA.

Staff is quite friendly and welcoming. Central location convenient within K-town and short 15 minute drive to downtown. Mid century brutalist interior design. Alfred’s coffee in the lobby, nice terrace restaurant on 2nd floor.
Rooms are comfy and have fully stocked mini-fridge, snacks, dryer, iron/board, safe, space to hang and stack clothes. Windows don’t control outdoor noise very well (nightlife and nearby construction), but pillows work well as sound mufflers! Car park is valet only, about US$50 per night. Will likely return.

The line hotel is a hidden gem in Koreatown. Not only is it centrally located, but the entire staff is incredibly kind and attentive. I was so happy to get a room with a 20% discount directly on their website. I needed a late check out, and wanted to bring my two cats along, so I emailed the front desk, and they made the entire process easy and streamlined. Some hotels do not allow cats, but The Line made me and my cats feel like we were VIPs! Plus, no pet fee! The room itself was so nice, artfully decorated, the linens were comfortable, the view was unbeatable and it was incredibly quiet. Alfred coffee is in the lobby, which was so nice to wake up, go down stairs and get a delicious coffee and bagel. I will definitely stay here again, and recommend it to friends.

This is the second time I have stayed in this hotel, for work reasons not my personal choice. Honestly it has the worst customer service I have encountered in a very long time. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels and the Line LA is one of the worst. The front desk staff, especially Alex, have an extremely cold attitude. When we were dealing with a booking mistake crisis, quit promptly in the middle of the discussion he states “Im going on lunch”. Zero feelings and support for my colleague who had just travelled 36 hours around the world and is naturally exhausted. Alex has this vacant stare in his eyes, it is eerie and unsettling to say the least.
The mini bar in the room does not have a kettle, so forget about making your own coffee in the morning. You need to get up and changed to get a $7 coffee from downstairs. FYI its pretty standard to have a kettle in your hotel room. The mini bar is stocked with 80% alcohol. A bit extreme, how about some coffee and milk?
Every morning during our stay, other staff members were protested outside with signs, music and an air horn. Waking jetlagged customers up at 7am. Once they had finished protesting, they promptly got changed and started their shift. The Line LA hotel DID NOT ONCE apologize for this, when I called downstairs to ask what was going on, they said “deal with it”. The hotel needs to invest in double glazing the windows as it is extremely noisy.
They charge you $30 to purchase international adapter plugs! Of course the room comes with no international plug features.
Breakfast is not included, you need to order room service and it is expensive.
No benches outside to sit on while you wait for your Uber or taxi.
$70 per day to park a car in the basement (outrageous).

I love The LINE and stay here every time I'm in LA. It's quirky enough to have a little bit of character and uniqueness, but is still comfortable and easy to relax in. The rooms are a decent size for a city center, I always love the Cowshed bath products in the bathroom, and the lobby is a nice place to hang out and do work if you need to. The K-Town location is fun and central (and I'll take it over DTLA any day), and while the downstairs can be a bit of a scene at night, the upstairs rooms remain quiet. Easy proximity to so much of the city.

The one thing I really wish they'd update are the bathrooms. They feel a bit like a 90s old hotel bathroom, and the finishes are not up to par with the rest of the space.

A family event had us staying at the LINE LA. Rooms are small, cold and noisy, with amenities lacking; there was a green plastic trash "bucket" in the bathroom serving as a waste basket, for example. The thermostat was very, very difficult to use. The storage was less than minimal. Because the closet was so short, it did not fit the length of a man's suit jacket on a hanger nor a woman's dress. When we booked we were quoted one price but the bill at the end had one price for Friday and another for Saturday. They also managed to include as many "add-ons" as they could which unexpectedly made a huge increase in the bill. Not a place we would return to.

Responded Jun 20, 2024
Dear Nancy, Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay at the LINE LA. I am sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. Regarding the varying room rates, I would like to clarify that it is common practice for hotels to provide an average nightly rate at the time of booking. This rate reflects the fluctuating prices of individual nights during your stay, which can vary due to demand and other factors. I apologize if this was not clearly communicated during your booking process. In response to your concerns about the amenity fee, I would like to clarify that this fee is not an unexpected charge. All guests are informed about this fee at the time of booking. This fee covers a range of additional services and facilities we provide, including our second-floor pool and pool towels, high-speed wireless internet, 24-hour access to the gym with a Peloton bike, access to the private Barbershop Club, 24-hour access to the business center with printer, in-room coffee maker & tea kettle upon request, in-room reusable Rainwater bottles with onsite refill stations, and more. We strive for transparency in all our charges, and this fee is disclosed on all online booking channels, including our website, during the last step before you confirm your booking. I apologize for the issues you encountered with the room size, temperature control, and storage. We are continuously working to improve our guest experience and will address these concerns with our team. Thank you again for your feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with a better experience. Sincerely, J.R. Billings - Director of Rooms

I live local and have generally recommended The Line to out of town friends based on my experiences at the pool and restaurant (both great). This was my first time staying. I am embarrassed I’ve been recommending this place.

My partner and I stayed in a king suite for a few days, and the whole room felt tired and like it had seen a lot of wear. There were rips in the bedding. The desk was stained and the wood veneer peeling off in huge chunks. The sink didn’t drain (ew). The shower struggled to get warm. And the AC just fully did not work. Also, there was no trashcan in the bathroom (I was told the large (obvious wash bucket) was meant to be the trash…but throwing used tampons and things in an unlined tub was really NOT the solution I was hoping for and left me feeling like the whole place was kinda lacking in hygiene)??

Any of these things alone would have been no big deal. But, all of them together was just…kind of a lot.

What a bummer. Not sure what’s happening here.

First the pros: staff was wonderful, valet service, prompt and efficient, coffee bar in lobby great; drinks and appetizers by the pool great and an incredible view. However, the great service and convenient location (visiting daughter who lives in Korea Town) just could not make up for how incredibly uncomfortable the rooms were. 1) the bed is only about two feet off the ground and is a lumpy uncomfortable mattress. The cheap IKEA mattress in our guest room is better quality than this. Could not get a decent night sleep and it was difficult to get up from 2) the bathroom counter barely reached my husband's mid thigh. Washing up in there was a chore. 3) it took us forever to find the light switch which turned out to be this tiny button taped to the wall that blended into the cement. 4). In order to walk around the bed you have to duck under the television (which could not be pushed flush into the wall to avoid this) and hope that if you got up in the middle of the night you wouldn't forget and bash your head. 5) lobby carpets (10th floor) looked incredibly dirty but not sure if that was the look they were going for or they just needed to be cleaned. 6) the "coffee" table next to the love seat that looked like it had an old blanked thrown over it, was completely useless as it wasn't really a table at all - I wish I had a photo of it because it's so strange it's hard to explain. A piece of wood with random size blocks coming out of it...??. We just didn't know what to make of it. Finally if you do go make sure you get an upper floor. The street noises were loud even on the tenth floor. This didn't really bother us but I could imagine it would be noisy if you were lower down. Unfortunately, my back will probably take a few days to recover from this uncomfortable hotel

People in the front desk are very rude and arrogant. They don’t listen to you and they just cut calls on your face if you have any concerns. They are very unprofessional and this is not expected from a 4 star hotel. Please do yourself a favor and don’t stay here. They reuse the shampoos and hand wash bottles for every guest. They don’t give guests new toiletries and they just reuse these bottles.

We stayed at The Line as a recommendation for an event. The room and bathroom we had was very small and cramped. The bed was inches from the window with a black out curtain that didn’t go all the way down and the traffic noise was extremely loud all the time. Only a tiny spot to hang up clothes in and no coffee or tea in the room. The pool was also very small with very limited seating. More than half of the tiny pool is 6-9 feet deep and no stairs to get in or out of it. Brunch was only severed starting at 10 and by reservation only which we didn’t know.

Answer from Villagetom
Cotati, California7 contributions11 helpful votes
No there’s not. And I have to say, I’ve been hit by a virus from their marketing department, after I contacted them to say I had a great stay. When I told them about it and asked for help they told me to google the issue and fix it, as relayed thru reception as marketing wouldn’t take my calls. What started off as an amazing experience has soured greatly as I now receive weekly emails with vendor invoices - I was a guest that shouldn’t have to experience this. Total bummer.

Hi there, you won’t have luck with the hotel those hours but you have options nearby, either direction you have Denny’s open 24 hours, McDonalds, Carls Jr, Jack in the Box a few blocks away that all are also 24 hours. You are in Korea town so you will have options like BCD Tofu House or Sun Nong Dan also open 24 hours. Pacific Dining Car is a bit further or even the Original Pantry Cafe or 24/7 in DTLA. Ubereats, Postmates, Caviar etc will also have options to deliver to you as well. Enjoy your trip to LA!
