Revamped Guest Rooms, Innovative Work Suite, and Four Vibrant Dining Destinations Redefine the Guest Experience
LOS ANGELES, CA – (March 6, 2025) – Sonesta Los Angeles Airport LAX is pleased to announce the completion of a $42 million renovation to enhance the hotel’s appeal to business and leisure travelers. The transformation introduces redesigned guest rooms, a modernized lobby, 14,000 square feet of reimagined event spaces—including the cutting-edge Sonesta Work Suite—and four distinctive dining venues offering a variety of curated culinary experiences.
“Our renovations redefine what it means to stay near LAX,” said Robert Routh, General Manager of Sonesta LAX. “While we have always been the go-to choice for travelers with our 24-hour complimentary airport shuttle, the new design enhances comfort, convenience, and style. From fresh, mid-century modern interiors to upgraded dining options and our innovative Work Suite, we have created a space that seamlessly blends function and relaxation.”
Updated Guest Rooms Offer Comfort and Style
The hotel’s 614 guest rooms now feature sleek, modern furnishings with amenities designed for productivity and relaxation. Spacious work desks with ergonomic chairs, large HD TVs, Keurig coffee makers, and mini-refrigerators complement the design. Double-paned windows ensure a restful night’s sleep, while all King rooms include a pull-out sofa bed. All double-bed rooms have been upgraded to feature two queen beds -224 in total —a key differentiator from the competition.
Five exclusive suites on the upper floors range from 610 to 1,400 square feet, offering breathtaking views and upgraded amenities like Nespresso coffee machines, 65-inch TVs, and plush bathrobes. Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, and accessible accommodations are also available.
Innovative New Work Suite and Event Spaces
The revamped event spaces’ highlight is the introduction of the Sonesta Work Suite, a dynamic, multi-functional meeting environment tailored to modern professionals. With seating for up to 12, the suite supports collaboration through self-contained work areas, making it ideal for board meetings, brainstorming sessions, and executive retreats.
The hotel’s 15 meeting rooms, including the expansive 5,876-square-foot Continental Ballroom, offer flexible configurations for events of all sizes. High-speed wireless internet, video conferencing capabilities, and state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment are standard.
