CIM Group and Denihan Hospitality Group have signed an agreement to develop the first The James brand hotel in Los Angeles, US.
The James Los Angeles, the first new ground-up hotel to be built in West Hollywood for around 30 years, will be built in the heart of the iconic Sunset Strip at the south-east corner of Sunset and La Cienega Boulevards.
The hotel will include two ten-storey towers with 286 rooms, according to CIM.
It will feature two restaurants, rooftop and lobby bars, along with around 10,000ft² of meeting space with prominent views of the Los Angeles area.
CIM Group, which is the owner and developer of the two-block Sunset La Cienega mixed-use development, has selected Denihan Hospitality Group as its joint venture partner for the boutique hotel portion of the project.
Joining The James Chicago, The James New York and The James Royal Palm, Miami, The James Los Angeles will be the fourth hotel operating under the brand and is expected to be opened in 2016.

By GlobalDataCIM Group founding principal Shaul Kuba said, "We selected The James brand as it brings an inspired guest-experience to West Hollywood and the Greater Los Angeles area."
"The hotel’s attention to detail and premier amenities complements the distinctive Sunset La Cienega project underway at this legendary Sunset Strip location," Kuba added.
CIM has designed and is developing both The James Los Angeles and the two eight-storey residential towers directly across La Cienega Boulevard, which will include around 190 residences and about 40,000ft² of prime street retail space.
Sunset La Cienega, which is surrounded by different retail, restaurant and entertainment venues in West Hollywood, will feature plazas and public spaces designed to enhance the pedestrian experience on the Sunset Strip.
