Information from the business
Downtown L.A.'s intimate skyline frames the ultimate outdoor pool and lounge party. Large couches accommodating multiple groups of friends are conveniently located only a huff and puff away from the roomy dance floor. Just around the corner lies the Roof's singular bar. Looking like the set of a White Stripes video, the vibrant candy apple-red bar contrasts with a stark white wall. For more...

Tips About This Business
Avoid the cover charge for the rooftop bar by having a drink in the lobby, where a DJ spins nightly.
Avoid the Manhattan-esque valet fees and park at any one of the nearby pay lots, all of which are cheaper.
Raise the rooof: Sunday afternoon means it's party time at the pool with a live DJ from 12pm-7pm. Entry is $20 after 2pm.
Editorial Reviews from the web
Blame this tower of hipper-than-thou power for igniting the Downtown L.A. revival back in 2001. Since then, this quirky cool sleepover spot has become a de rigeur destination as much for the bedroom action as for the lobby billiards and rooftop bar and pool, which draw a colorful mix of tourists and local scenesters. Rooms--available in sizes ranging from Huge and Gigantic to Humongous and...

Homey favorites make up the diner menu. Starters include chopped salad with blue cheese, avocado and bacon. For dinner,...

Other Reviews from the web
This place is very hip, you feel like a super-hero standing on top of the building...
Pros
+ Vibe, decor, view
This is one of the most overpriced dumps in all of L.A., if not the worst. It's overpriced and ugly as sin. I mean, who on earth decorated this place? How do they sleep at night?
Just horrible. Absolutely horrible. Someone should put a lid on this sh!thole and be done with it.
Pros
+ I didn't jump off the roof
Cons
- Everything
I have been here a few times and had a great time. But I do not intend to bring any guests here again. It was embarrassing how curt and surly the door staff were. As if we are doing them a favor to spend our money here. And believe me, guys, this is not just leveled at you. The attractive women are getting the same attitude. That is why there is a line of guys waiting to get in and no...
