Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles has officially opened its doors, marking a significant expansion of Hilton’s presence in Southern California and introducing a new full-service hotel aimed squarely at business and leisure travellers alike.
The 173-room property is located at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains in the heart of Arcadia, just steps from Santa Anita Park and the Los Angeles County Arboretum, and within easy reach of the Rose Bowl and Pasadena’s cultural attractions. The hotel is managed by Azul Hospitality Group, the San Diego-based hospitality management platform known for its performance-driven, guest-focused approach.
Blending contemporary design with strong local references, Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles positions itself as a refined yet approachable retreat, offering modern accommodation, multiple dining concepts — including Arcadia’s only rooftop bar — and more than 17,000 square feet of flexible meeting and event space.
The hotel’s interiors draw inspiration from Arcadia’s equestrian heritage, diverse cultural influences and surrounding mountain landscape. Warm tones, deep blue velvet accents and clean architectural lines run throughout the property, creating an atmosphere that feels polished but welcoming.
Natural light plays a central role in the design, with comfortable furnishings and open social spaces tailored to both business travellers and leisure guests. The overall aesthetic combines Hilton’s global brand standards with a modern California sensibility that feels distinctly connected to the destination.
“Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles was designed to celebrate the vibrant energy and character of this community,” said Luis Plascencia, general manager of Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles. “With thoughtfully appointed guest rooms, a signature rooftop bar and flexible event spaces ideal for hosting every type of occasion, we’re proud to introduce a new elevated destination to the heart of Arcadia.”
Contemporary accommodation with business-friendly features
Guest rooms and suites are designed with both comfort and functionality in mind. Standard features include modern furnishings, premium bedding, blackout curtains, high-speed Wi-Fi and 55-inch SMART HDTVs. Bathrooms are finished with granite countertops, handheld showers and luxury bath amenities.
In-room conveniences such as mini refrigerators, personal clothes steamers, in-room safes and adjustable thermostats are clearly aimed at frequent travellers. Accommodation options range from King and Double Queen rooms to a selection of larger suites with separate living and sleeping areas.
Select rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the San Gabriel Mountains or the Santa Anita Racetrack, with some offering private balconies. Racetrack-view rooms provide guests with front-row views of the historic course, adding a distinctive sense of place to the stay. Accessible guest rooms and suites are also available, supporting mobility and hearing requirements.
Dining is a key part of the hotel’s offering, anchored by a trio of distinct venues.
At the top of the hotel, Hipico Rooftop Restaurant & Bar serves as the property’s signature destination and Arcadia’s only rooftop venue. The space combines indoor-outdoor dining with sweeping mountain views, handcrafted cocktails and Baja-inspired dishes, positioning it as a social hub for both guests and locals.
19Seventy at the Ovalo Restaurant & Bar operates as the hotel’s all-day dining venue, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Morning offerings include specialty coffee, espresso, teas, fresh juices and classic breakfast dishes, alongside cocktails such as mimosas and Bloody Marys. Later in the day, the menu shifts towards Italian-inspired dishes in a relaxed but refined setting.
For more intimate dining, Sottaku by Kisen & Kaiseki Motoishi offers high-end sushi and specialty Japanese cuisine, bringing established culinary expertise to Arcadia and catering to guests seeking an elevated dining experience.
In-room dining is available on select days, with breakfast service at weekends and dinner service on Friday and Saturday evenings.
Built for meetings, events and celebrations
With more than 17,000 square feet of event space, Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles is clearly positioned as a serious contender in the regional meetings and events market.
The Centella Ballroom is the hotel’s largest venue, accommodating up to 450 guests and featuring natural light alongside two built-in 16:9 LED screens. Outdoor venues such as the Aura Terrace and Abierto Pool Patio provide scenic settings for receptions, cocktail events and private dinners, framed by mountain views.
Smaller meeting spaces — including the Vitalia Meeting Room, Brio Boardroom and La Meta Rooms — support conferences, board meetings and breakout sessions, all equipped with modern AV technology, event support and custom catering options.
Beyond meetings and dining, guests have access to a heated outdoor pool, a 24-hour fitness centre, digital key access and on-site parking. Hilton Honors Executive Lounge access is available for qualifying guests, offering enhanced breakfast, evening refreshments and dedicated workspace.
The hotel’s location places guests close to Westfield Santa Anita, The Huntington Library and Pasadena’s museums and cultural institutions, making it a practical base for both corporate and leisure stays.
As demand continues to grow for well-located, design-led hotels that cater to both work and downtime, Hilton Arcadia Los Angeles enters the market as a strong new option for travellers seeking space, connectivity and a sense of place in Southern California.
