9 L.A. Hotels and Co-Working Spaces to Elevate Your Work-From-Home Life

Need a change of scenery? These picturesque local getaways can help.

Second Home Hollywood

Your living room — heck, maybe even your garage — has probably been serving as your office for most of 2020, and now a new year has arrived. To help you find a stylish change in scenery, we're rounding up the best L.A. hotels and co-working spots offering fancy but functional spaces to elevate your work-from-home life. Because mixing business with pleasure is the least you can do to treat yourself during these tough times.

Freehand Los Angeles

Freehand Los Angeles (Downtown): If you're looking for a COVID-friendly work spot that lets you save on rent and comes with all the amenities of a hotel, check yourself into Freehand Los Angeles, which is housed in DTLA's historic Commercial Exchange building. The hotel has launched a new package called "Stay Longer, Save More" to gives guests who book seven nights or more a 30% discount per night with the code LONGSTAY (book by March 24). That comes to a little over $800 a month — half the average cost of Angelenos' monthly rent — and you can stay for up to 28 days or longer. All the spaces are cleaned and disinfected to the highest standard.

Hotel Figueroa

Hotel Figueroa (Downtown): During quarantine, Hotel Figueroa debuted a poolside daycation experience with socially-distanced cabanas that make for the perfect outdoor work situation. As the temperatures drop, the hotel is running a "Work Perks" program, which lets locals work 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from three of its fancy suites, all of which feature fast WiFi, a quiet living area, a king-size bed, a writing desk, unlimited use of a copy machine, and plenty of outlets to charge your tech. Lunch breaks at The Fig are pretty sweet too as you'll have access to the pool deck, fitness room, an in-suite coffee machine and refrigerator, and to-go orders from the hotel restaurant, Veranda Al Fresco. Choose from the Classic Suite for $140, the Deluxe for $170, or the Event for $490 per night.

Some Industrious locations feature an outdoor terrace, a wellness room, a private conference room, office supplies, unlimited color printing, fast WiFi, and most importantly, a kitchen.

Face masks are required in communal spaces and no large in-person gatherings or member events are allowed due to COVID-19. But best of all, Industrious is screening members, guests, and vendors to reduce the chances of transmission. Read more about its safety guidelines here.

Industrious offers credit for one free day of co-working when a potential member visits one of its locations for an in-person tour. The free day must be scheduled in advance.
