The Sydell Group has introduced the latest NoMad property at Giannini Place in Downtown Los Angeles. Evoking the elegant spirit of the brand’s New York flagship, the NoMad Los Angeles features a design from French architect and designer Jacques Garcia, who looked to the building’s Italian heritage for inspiration.
Many highlights of the building’s Neoclassical style remain intact and refreshed, including Doric columns and marble flooring; an original bank vault that once housed 12,000 safety deposit boxes has also been retained. All 241 accommodations are adorned with the gold and blue palette found in the property’s restored Italianate ceiling in the lobby, while custom furnishings and original artwork are featured along with freestanding pedestal bathtubs in each bathroom.
In addition to 10,000 square feet of meeting and event space, the hotel boasts an extensive F&B lineup that includes an all-day concept in the lobby and mezzanine. Also located in the lobby adjacent to the Giannini Bar, the Coffee Bar is modeled to resemble an iconic Venetian café, complete with antique mirrors that serve as partitions to transition the room into a full cocktail bar by night. The NoMad’s signature Library is installed as well, outfitted with two 12-foot-tall, handcrafted light fixtures and other custom furnishings in addition to its literary collection. Up top, a rooftop venue crowns the hotel with an outdoor café and cocktail bar that overlooks the City of Angels.
