Meetings Made Easy

Innovative Work Suite at Sonesta LAX redefines business experience in hospitality.

Sonesta Los Angeles Airport LAX announced the completion of a $42 million renovation in early 2025 to enhance the hotel’s appeal to business and leisure travelers. The transformation introduces redesigned guest rooms — including hearing- and mobility-accessible rooms, a modernized lobby, 14,000 square feet of reimagined event spaces, and four distinctive dining venues offering a variety of curated culinary experiences.

Most importantly, this location offers the cutting-edge Sonesta Work Suite, seamlessly blending function and relaxation. This dynamic, multifunctional meeting environment is 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. Think of it as the amalgamation of a traditional meeting space and a coworking space — a hybrid experience catering to local and visiting guests.

Proximity to the airport — it is located less than a mile from LAX — coupled with 24-hour complimentary airport shuttle service is an added convenience. For a quick meeting spot during the day to sign those critical business agreements or a dedicated venue to ensure focused teamwork or department meetings off-site, the Sonesta Work Suite delivers a ready space that features an open floor plan for streamlined collaboration, whether you seek a formal office feel, more casual coffee lounge, or informal breakroom vibes.

Los Angeles is one of a few select Sonesta locations offering the Work Suite option, with several others in the works. As a space that is already set up for use with package options available for reserving it compared to traditional conference rooms that must be organized per client requirements, this is a no-brainer when it comes to meeting spaces easily accessed from the airport and central to many city neighborhoods.

Additionally, the hotel’s 15 meeting rooms, including the expansive 5,000-plus-square-foot Continental Ballroom, offer flexible configurations for events of all sizes, along with high-speed wireless internet, video conferencing capabilities, and state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment, as well as on-site catering and a 24-hour business center with technical support to further enhance the meeting experience. As a result, several organizations and other meeting groups have hosted events here over the past few months.

The hotel offers more than 600 sleek guest rooms designed for productivity and relaxation, spacious work desks with ergonomic chairs complement the design, and double-paned windows ensure a restful night’s sleep. The view of the airport is a bonus if that is of interest. Five exclusive suites on the upper executive floors offer breathtaking views and upgraded amenities as well. If work and relaxation are on the agenda, then they are well addressed here.

Nearby Manhattan Beach, Marina del Rey, and Venice Beach offer avenues to explore local attractions. World-class events in multiple venues such as SoFi Stadium, Kia Forum, Intuit Dome, YouTube Theater, and the Los Angeles Convention Center, among others, can be easily accessed due to the hotel’s central location. The concierge desk at the lobby helps with planning activities, whether for a family or for colleagues.

Sustainability plays a big role in operations at a venue that is consistently home to both business and leisure travelers in Los Angeles. To reduce waste, the property features low-flow faucets, shower heads, and toilets for low water consumption, and paper, plastic, aluminum cans, cardboard, newspaper and more are all recycled. For energy conservation, the hotel uses sensors. This includes water sensors in public bathrooms and motion sensors to ensure only occupied rooms and offices are using energy. Responsible and local sourcing of ingredients for food and beverage needs and organic composting rounds up the property’s commitment to its guests and local community.

If the large, open waiting area at the foyer and the spacious lobby lounge are any indication, this property welcomes business and leisure guests with an embrace, with an invitation to work and play in Los Angeles.
