Last week, our Fairfield by Marriott Inglewood hotel project was featured in Los Angeles-based commercial real estate media UrbanizeLA.  As we had recently announced ourselves in our September/October edition of our Praxis newsletter, design entitlement was granted by the City of Inglewood in September.

At its core, the hotel boasts 150 guest rooms over six stories upon an L-shaped footprint on a lot across the street from the SoFi Stadium complex. Hinting at the elevated hospitality offerings and amenities within, an oversized street-level patio cushioned from Century Boulevard by a buffering landscape treatment creates a welcoming dining and entertaining space for guests and visitors alike, while a sixth floor rooftop wraparound balcony glimpsed from the sidewalk creates a neighborhood-defining hospitality destination of its own.

The project is on behalf of Bhagat Investments-Century LLC. Interior design expertise is provided by Level 3 Design Group.  Construction of the Fairfield by Marriott Inglewood is expected to commence in March 2024, with completion set to occur in March 2026.
