Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the property will open in August as The Jeremy Hotel. Located on the corner of La Cienega and Sunset Boulevard, the hotel presents a very distinctive metal cladding in its exterior with its prominent hilltop location allowing for unobstructed breathtaking views from most rooms, ranging from Santa Monica to Downtown LA. The 286 room hotel features 50 suites, including two Penthouse Suites, a pool, fitness center, two large conference rooms and meetings and event space (totaling approximately 10,000 sq. ft.), a spectacular rooftop bar and lounge with 360 views, a café, restaurant and lobby bar.
Over the course of the next year, The Jeremy will be transformed into the 1 West Hollywood and will become the fourth property in the award-winning eco conscious luxury sustainable brand created by Starwood Capital. When 1 West Hollywood opens it will join sister hotels in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Miami Beach. Other 1 Hotels under development include Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (fall 2019), Sunnyvale, California (late 2019) and Sanya, China (late 2018). As a testament to the brand’s strong offerings, 1 Hotel Central Park was voted “Best Urban Hotel” in the world by Wallpaper Magazine earlier this year. Starwood Capital Group is expected to relaunch The Jeremy as the 1 West Hollywood towards the end of 2018.
“We are excited to acquire this amazing asset in the vibrant West Hollywood market and add it to our rapid growing 1 Hotels brand portfolio,” said Starwood Capital Group Chairman Barry Sternlicht. “The opportunity to acquire this new extraordinarily located real estate in such an important destination with all of its amenities was extremely compelling to our brand and team. We can’t wait to launch The Jeremy and later bring our award-winning luxury sustainability focused brand to a city and state that cares so much about the environment,” Sternlicht concluded.
The Jeremy and the 1 West Hollywood will be managed by SH Group, Starwood Capital’s in-house hotel management company, which manages the 1 Hotels brand and Baccarat hotel in Midtown Manhattan. The 1 West Hollywood will provide a world-class destination to Los Angeles while welcoming guests to the city’s most beloved neighborhood, West Hollywood.
