Normandie
The Quintessential Los Angeles
Boutique Hotel
At the time of its completion, the two men who built Hotel Normandie - Albert R. Walker and Percy A. Eisen - were developing a number of notable Los Angeles properties, including the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, United Theatre on Broadway, and the Fine Arts Building. As a product of this booming period of construction, Hotel Normandie quickly gained notoriety in the 1920s and 30s. A number of famous guests began settling in there; English author Malcolm Lowry resided at the hotel while writing his most well-known novel, Under the Volcano, while Mrs. H.F. Bruner later became a local celebrity, preparing $1 turkey dinners for the community every Sunday.
Whilst bringing it into the 21st century, renovations have updated some of the hotel’s components when necessary; nevertheless, Hotel Normandie maintains much of its original aspects. This includes the famous Cassell’s Hamburgers, which first opened as a diner in 1948, and a reconstruction of the original Mansard roof, which was disassembled during the 1950s. From the restored terrazzo floor in our lobby to the rich mahogany doors in our halls, each detail adds to the blast-from-the-past enchantment that makes this Koreatown hotel a truly special destination.
