A Japanese oasis in the heart of Los Angeles, this high-rise hotel edges downtown’s Little Tokyo district. The hotel has a tranquil plant-filled two-story lobby and a manicured Japanese roof garden. Traditional Japanese restaurants serve Kobe beef, sushi, and tempura; the health spa specializes in shiatsu massage; and the bar offers state-of-the-art karaoke. Guest rooms are largely configured in Western style, although Japanese rooms with sunken futons and tatami mats are also available.
