Stay in the heart of Los Angeles
A peaceful escape amidst the urban hustle and bustle.
Nestled in the heart of the Los Angeles Downtown Arts District, kodō hotel is an urban oasis that marries historic charm with modern elegance.

The hotel name “kodō,” which means “heartbeat” in Japanese, encapsulates the essence of vitality and cultural fusion.
Once inside, the hotel reveals itself as a haven where design, nature, and hospitality converge to create a unique spiritual connection for its guests.
The kodō experience extends to impeccable service, luxurious rooms, and cutting-edge amenities, making it an integral heartbeat in L.A.’s vibrant Arts District.
