Award-Winning Hotel Re-Emerges with Bold Plans to Expand Its Dining, Wellness, and Nightlife Experiences for In-The-Know Travelers and Locals Alike

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The 149-room luxury hotel at 8430 W Sunset Blvd has been reborn as The Sun Rose West Hollywood – a proud member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts' L.V.X. Collection. Taking its name from the property's beloved, jewel-box music venue, The Sun Rose honors its legendary past as the site of the original House of Blues and heralds a bold new chapter for this iconic Sunset Strip address.

Described by Town & Country Magazine as a "real-life Slim Aarons photo," the Martin Brudnizki-designed property exudes art-deco interiors, striking patterns, and saturated color schemes that set the stage for the property's luxury evolution, where refined style meets electric social gravity. The music venue will take on a new identity as Live at The Sun Rose as part of this transformation, while many of its beloved partners and experiential touch-points will remain. Perched on the rooftop with sweeping views of Los Angeles, legendary Chef Wolfgang Puck celebrates the city's open-air culture with a menu showcasing the subtleties of Pan-Asian cuisine at Merois. Bringing the property alive from day to night, the newly launched Moët Bubbles Bar on The Rooftop - offered each Friday and Saturday from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm - will continue. And Merois' Rooftop Movie Series delights guests with complimentary film screenings of Hollywood favorites, from cult classics to timeless tales, every other Wednesday at 8:00 pm.

Guests and locals alike can also anticipate a host of thoughtfully curated new experiences, partnerships, and select amenities to debut in the coming months. Helping bring this vision to life is Adam Blackstone, who steps into the newly created role of property-wide Creative Director. Blackstone is a multihyphenate artist who has frequented The Sun Rose stage and served as music director for Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Maroon 5, Jay-Z, and Eminem. Drawing from a Tony-nominated and Grammy and Emmy-winning career rooted in iconic pop culture moments - from Broadway to Super Bowl Half-Time Shows and major award shows - Blackstone will usher in a vibrant new era for the property. One that is alluring, expressive, and wholly The Sun Rose West Hollywood.

"From the first moment I stepped onto the stage, The Sun Rose felt like home. Over the past three years, we've organically cultivated a space where music legends and rising stars can share the spotlight, leading to some of the most talked about, viral performances in Los Angeles," says Adam Blackstone, The Sun Rose West Hollywood Creative Director. "I look forward to the opportunity to enhance the cultural resonance of both the music venue and the hotel in my new role."
