Trapeze Artist
Trapeze Artist, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles
Click to book Trapeze Artist now: from £166 per night A loft in the Arts District is about as LA as it gets (give or take the odd hacienda in the Hills), and this apartment is an absolute beauty. It’s impeccably kept, and while the exposed pipework might not be to everyone’s taste, it’s hard to argue with them in the context of the space. The rooftop has been rated as one of the coolest in Downtown for the pool and the outstanding view of the skyline – perfect for relaxing lunches, outdoor dinners and happy hours. In addition, the home is a real rarity for LA, located in a walkable area with several shops, cafes and galleries nearby and bordering on Downtown LA, Little Tokyo, and the up-and-coming Boyle Heights. And even though your host Riccardo might not be able to meet you in person at check-in, he’s been hosting for years, so he’s got the whole thing down to a fine art. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
Pia's Warehouse
Pia's Warehouse, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles
Click to book Pia's Warehouse now: from £200 per night This 1920's restored storage facility is perfectly situated in the Arts District and an excellent option for young couples or solo travellers who wish to have freedom and space to enjoy LA. With remnants from it's previous life, this studio apartment has an industrial feel and bright open living space, but may not suit those hoping for individual or separate rooms. So long as this doesn't sway you, you'll also have access to a rooftop with a hot tub, and open community grill, and even two bikes for hire. Sleeps up to 3 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
Arts on the Avenue
Arts on the Avenue, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles
Click to book Arts on the Avenue now: from £169 per night Living the high life in Downtown LA is easy in the heights of this incredible apartment block. Just a five-minute drive from the bright lights of Chinatown, this home is a spot of luxury in the city. In contrast to the colourful red buildings you might pass en route, enter into your modern white, open-plan apartment. With a huge lounge window and ghost dining chairs, this glassy, minimalist vibe is perfect for relaxation after a busy day in this bustling metropolis. Guests here are truly pampered – wellness facilities include a swimming pool, spa, fitness centre, and yoga studio. Or for leisure, you’ve got a roof terrace with barbecues, a library, and a billiards table. If you manage to make it out of this fabulous residence, you won’t need to go far for more entertainment – this avenue will keep you busy the entire time. For cultured days out, your neighbours include some of the city’s most celebrated galleries. A two-minute walk away, find contemporary art at the MOCA, or at The Broad museum less than a minute away on foot. And in the evening, catch the Los Angeles Philharmonic at home at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, a swift three-minute walk from home. Sleeps up to 3 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
Champagne High
Champagne High, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles
Click to book Champagne High now: from £220 per night We’re big fans of downtown LA. A walkable destination dotted with museums, beautiful buildings and superb restaurants, it’s had a real resurgence in recent years and we’re on board. You’ll find this sleek apartment right in the middle of the action. Cool and contemporary, with a gourmet kitchen, private balcony and fabulous views of the city skyline, it’s exactly the kind of place we can imagine basing ourselves for a stay in the city. The building’s facilities aren’t too shabby either. Start your days with a dip in the heated outdoor pool, break a sweat in the gym or get your downward dog on in the wellness centre. Then get out there and explore the city. You’ve got the best of DTLA within a few blocks (STAPLES Centre, L.A. LIVE and the West Walt Disney Concert Hall for starters) so you’ll never be short of something to do. Come sundown, pour a glass and pull up a chair by the chic outdoor firepit, or take your pick from the area’s stellar drinking and dining destinations. Sleeps up to 3 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
Levitating
Levitating, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles

Everything about this pad is sleek and modern, from the pristine high-spec kitchen to the luxe Hypnos mattresses and roomy walk-in closets. The private balcony, which scales the length of the apartment, is a real stunner – it's the perfect spot to sip cocktails and admire the incredible city views. You don't even need to leave the building to have some fun – there's a long list of amenities sure to tickle your fancy. We're talking a resort-style pool, an outdoor fire pit, an onsite fitness centre with its own Peloton room, multiple lounges, a large dining room for dinner parties and a meditation and yoga area.
