LA Art Show runs January 6-10, 2027 at Los Angeles Convention Center, and every hotel here is within a half-mile walk of the convention center. All five were chosen for proximity first, then star rating, and there's an option for collectors on different budgets. We work out walk times at 20 minutes per mile.

How to get from your hotel to the LA Art Show

Los Angeles Convention Center is at 1201 South Figueroa Street, and the show is in West Hall.

Pico Boulevard between Figueroa Street and LA Live Way is closed through March 31, 2028 for the convention center's expansion, so plan your walk along Figueroa.

The nearest Metro station is Pico on the Metro A and E Lines, on Flower Street one block east of Figueroa. Both lines connect to the 7th Street/Metro Center hub, where you can transfer to the B and D Lines.

January evenings in downtown Los Angeles can be cool, so a light jacket covers the walk.

Practical notes for LA Art Show attendees

  • The two hotels closest to the convention center share one address, 1260 South Figueroa Street.
  • Frieze Los Angeles runs in February, so if you plan to attend both events, you will need separate bookings.
  • The show opened with a premiere night on January 7, and the rest of the run went through January 11.
  • Pico station on the Metro A and E Lines is about an 8-minute walk from the convention center.
  • If you are flying into LAX, take the Metro Connector shuttle to the LAX/Metro Transit Center, the K Line to Expo/Crenshaw, then the E Line to Pico.

Which hotel fits your LA Art Show trip

AC Hotel by Marriott Downtown Los Angeles and Moxy Downtown Los Angeles are both at 1260 South Figueroa Street, 0.14 miles from the convention center entrance, a three-minute walk. The AC Hotel has the top guest score at 9.4 and suits collectors who want a polished, quiet room after a long day on the floor. The Moxy runs younger and louder, with a bar scene that works if you are meeting people after the show.

The JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE and The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles L.A. Live, both at 900 West Olympic Boulevard, add seven to eight minutes of walking but give you a full-service hotel under one roof, with a spa and multiple restaurants. That matters for a five-day event where you may want to host a dinner or take a meeting without leaving the building.

The Ritz-Carlton occupies the upper floors of the same tower as the JW Marriott and is the only five-star option within 0.38 miles of the convention center.

Hotel Figueroa, Unbound Collection by Hyatt at 939 South Figueroa is the farthest pick at 0.48 miles and 10 minutes, with a ground-level pool and a poolside bar, La Casita. It's the strongest choice if atmosphere matters as much as being close.
