Public West Hollywood to bring ‘luxury for all’ to the Sunset Strip in 2026
Legendary hotelier Ian Schrager will debut PUBLIC West Hollywood in spring 2026, bringing his cult-favorite PUBLIC brand to the West Coast for the first time. Set on the iconic Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California, the 137 key hotel will introduce the brand’s “luxury for all” philosophy to one of Los Angeles’s most high profile districts. Situated in a landmark building, the project marks Schrager’s return to the city with a new concept tailored to a new age of travel. The hotel is designed to fuse great service, style, entertainment and experience into a single, highly social destination.
PUBLIC West Hollywood will occupy a historic structure reimagined by Ian Schrager in collaboration with British architect John Pawson, blending the building’s original character with minimalist, contemporary design. The property will feature standout amenities including a pool and a vibrant social hub lobby, conceived as the heart of guest life and local interaction. Three destination food, beverage and entertainment outlets will anchor the ground and lower levels, aiming to attract both visitors and Angelenos. Above, a lushly landscaped 16,000 square foot open air rooftop terrace will offer 360 degree views across Los Angeles, positioning the hotel as a prime spot for sunset gatherings and late night events on the Strip.
The hotel will showcase PUBLIC’s vision of democratic luxury through curated, multi sensory experiences. Built around four key pillars – great service, style, entertainment and experience – the brand is designed for a new generation of travellers and locals seeking high impact environments at accessible prices. At PUBLIC West Hollywood, this will translate into cutting edge design, dynamic social spaces, world class dining and vibrant programming under one roof. From arrival to late evening, the property is intended to function as a place to live, work and play, elevating everyday moments with unexpected touches and a strong cultural point of view.
The opening of PUBLIC West Hollywood will create the brand’s second location worldwide, joining the original PUBLIC hotel on New York’s Lower East Side. With the Los Angeles property, PUBLIC continues to evolve as both a hotel and a cultural hub, offering spaces for community, creativity and connection. Reservations for PUBLIC West Hollywood are expected to go live in early January 2026, ahead of the spring debut, giving guests and locals the chance to engage with Schrager’s latest interpretation of urban hospitality on the Sunset Strip.
