Located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, and soon to be celebrating its 100-year anniversary – and having recently added the ‘Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument’ accolade to its mantle – Millennium Biltmore Los Angeles is the grand dame of downtown and this district’s most historic hotel.

Its beaux-arts institution has impressed guests and locals since the glory days of Old Hollywood, capable of entertaining a galaxy of stars, dignitaries and presidents from around the world. Having played host to a golden-era prohibition nightclub, numerous Academy Awards ceremonies, and feature film sets throughout the years – you’ll wish these gilt walls and painted ceilings could talk.
