From Koreatown in LA to Adams Morgan in DC to downtown Austin, each property is architecturally interesting and chosen for its location in emerging neighborhoods in compelling cities.  LINE hotels are both reflective and responsive— shaped by the communities they are part of while also contributing something new to those places. LINE properties are a collaboration of the best local and out-of-town talent in design, food and beverage, arts and culture.

The building also houses Ned's Club NoMad New York, a private membership club with a global community of like-minded professionals seeking connection and inspiration in exclusive spaces. Coming soon is Ned's Club Washington DC, offering even more opportunities for meaningful connections and enriching experiences.


That colorful hotel in the desert, The Saguaro is a good time. It’s not that complicated. There’s plenty of sunshine, a buzzing pool scene and lots of local flavor.
