  The AC Hotel Downtown Los Angeles is the closest hotel to the convention center, directly across South Figueroa Street at 0.1 miles — roughly a 4-minute walk to any convention center entrance. The Moxy Downtown Los Angeles shares the same building and offers the same distance, at a different price tier and atmosphere. Both earn Marriott Bonvoy points.
• How far in advance should I book hotels near the Los Angeles Convention Center during major conventions?
  Book 6-8 weeks in advance for major the convention center events. Hotel blocks at the Figueroa Street properties — the AC Hotel, Moxy, and nearby Marriott options — draw down fastest, often leaving only OTA inventory within a month of large trade shows. Navan's booking data shows the 0.1-mile hotels see the steepest rate jumps in the final two weeks.

  Yes. Metro's Pico Station (E Line and A Line) sits directly across from the convention center entrance — no blocks to cross. Hotels on Figueroa Street are a 6-8 minute walk to Pico Station. DASH Bus Route F stops along Figueroa adjacent to the convention center daily. From LAX, the K Line to Expo/Crenshaw, then E Line to Pico Station takes 50-65 minutes.
