Food & beverage

The Lounge - Relax and indulge yourself in the semi-private subterranean lounge, exclusive to guests of the hotel and an eclectic mix of the who’s who of Southern California. True VIP bottle service will be offered where your personal host shakes martinis table side while down-tempo tunes provide the perfect backdrop for conversation.

As with the entrance to the hotel, the predominant color is red, creating a rich passionate atmosphere. The walls are punctuated by peeks to the original brick and stone, showing the heritage of the building. The bar has a high-tech feel and is made entirely from aluminum and steel. The social area changes from day to night with the help of the lighting and curtains which unroll from the ceiling to create a more private atmosphere. The result is truly unique, where the emotion of Italian design and cuisine, the personal service and the strategic location, promise to make The Keating an unforgettable experience.

The Vault @ The Lounge - The social center of the hotel, encompassing dining and cocktails, the lounge has as a focal point – The Vault. This wine bar, a red brick structure once an actual vault for a previous tenant of the building, will be decorated by a limited edition of Pininfarina wines selected from some of the best wines of Italy.
