Location
Ace Hotel is a collection of individuals held together by an affinity for the soulful. We are not here to reinvent the hotel, but to readdress its conventions to keep them fresh, energized, human. We believe that hospitality is compassion, that it is not servility but genuine concern for others' well-being. We like the stories that come with things and think that wherever you are, you should feel like you're there. Work can be a beautiful thing when done beautifully, and it's a lot more fun done together than apart. This, more than anything else, is why people want to sleep with us.
