September 9 2016 (Los Angeles, Calif.) – Newly inducted as a Virtuoso luxury member, Los Angeles Tourism & Convention Board (L.A. Tourism) will attend Luxperience with The Line Hotel and Mondrian Los Angeles this September. This marks the first time hotel partners are joining the L.A. Tourism booth, bringing to life the destination's luxury hotel offerings for travel buyers.

Among L.A.'s wide range of accommodation options, luxury and unique properties can be found in various neighborhoods. Mondrian Los Angeles will showcase the Sunset Strip's classic glamour and excitement in the form of a luxury boutique hotel. Moving towards the hip region of Downtown L.A., buyers will have the chance to learn about The Line Hotel, a collaboration by the Sydell Group with local influencers Roy Choi, The Houston Brothers, Sean Knibb and art and design collective Poketo.

Los Angeles is experiencing a surge of hotel development and growth at the moment, with 24 new hotels under construction and another 28 in final planning stages countywide. These 52 hotel projects will deliver more than 9,200 new hotels rooms to the L.A. area in the next few years.
