American Hotel - Historic Arts District landmark with movie filming location and artist murals

Located in Downtown's Arts District, this historic Los Angeles hotel has operated for over 100 years since 1905. The 2-star American Hotel features seven exterior murals, including works by Kent Twichell, Augustine Kofie, and El Mac, plus interior pieces by Ed Rusha and Andy Warhol. The four-story property offers single rooms, doubles with bunk beds, suites, and family rooms, each equipped with flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, and safety deposit boxes. Shared bathrooms on each floor include walk-in showers and hairdryers. The building's facade on Hewitt Street regularly serves as a filming location for Hollywood productions due to its New York City aesthetic. The Pie Hole restaurant on the ground floor serves fresh-baked pies, breakfast items, and espresso drinks.
