Where to stay during LA Leather Pride?

Unlike other leather events, there is no designated host hotel during the event. Most of the major action in LA is found in West Hollywood. Book your stay in WEHO in advance and you are guaranteed to be close to all the major Leather events and parties. We love the Andaz WEHO for epic views, hot guests and great after parties.

Another popular neighbourhood is Silverlake, home to the off Sunset Festival. Stay in the Silver Lake pool and inn on Santa Monica Boulevard offering great rooms, a highly rated breakfast and excellent pool.
