The only hotel within the largest mixed-use mega development under construction in the Western United States to open in 2026.
LOS ANGELES (October 22, 2024) – KPC Development Company today broke ground on the $300-million Kali Hotel and Rooftop, Autograph Collection at Hollywood Park in Inglewood, California. Located at 3737 Stadium Drive, the 300-key hotel is the only hotel permitted within the Hollywood Park Specific Plan zone, adjacent to SoFi Stadium and YouTube Theater, within walking distance of Intuit Dome and Kia Forum, and 4 miles from Los Angeles International Airport.
Kali Hotel and Rooftop joins Autograph Collection Hotels, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of over 30 extraordinary brands. The distinctive premium brand features over 320 independent hotels, each hand-selected for their inherent craft and distinct perspectives on design and hospitality.
The groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, marks a significant leap forward in the development of Hollywood Park, solidifying its position as Los Angeles’ epicenter for entertainment with Kali Hotel as a cornerstone. The 300-acre Hollywood Park, owned, being developed and operated by Los Angeles Rams Owner/Chairman E. Stanley Kroenke, is the largest urban mixed-use development under construction in the Western U.S.
City of Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts, Clayco Executive Chairman and Founder Bob Clark, President of Kroenke Holdings Otto Maly, and KPC Development Company Chairman and Founder Dr. Kali P. Chaudhuri shared remarks about this project’s transformational impact on the City of Inglewood and greater Los Angeles for years to come.
“Kali Hotel represents a pivotal step in KPC’s strategic growth of realizing world-class development projects with partners who share our eye for ingenuity and commitment to excellence,” said Dr. Kali P. Chaudhuri, Chairman and Founder of KPC Development Company and the KPC Group. “We are honored to bring this one-of-a-kind hospitality experience to Hollywood Park that will contribute positively to the Inglewood community.”
The project is being led by Clayco as the builder, architect Lamar Johnson Collaborative (LJC), and Sixteenfifty Creative Intelligence for interior design and branding. Plans for the 12-story hotel provide for 300 guest rooms including 34 suites, along with a pool and yoga deck, spa, fitness center, three food and beverage concepts, and nearly 20,000 square feet of meetings and events space. Onsite parking comprises 315 stalls on the hotel’s ground and subterranean levels.
“At Clayco, we’re about more than just constructing buildings—we’re committed to creating spaces that make people feel welcomed and at home,” said Bob Clark, Executive Chairman and Founder of Clayco. “The Kali Hotel project is a perfect example of that vision. It’s not just a building; it’s a space that captures the spirit of Los Angeles. Partnering with such forward-thinking teams on this iconic property is in perfect alignment with our pursuit of excellence, and we’re thrilled to be contributing to a development that will leave a lasting legacy in Inglewood and Los Angeles.”
Upon opening in spring 2026, Kali Hotel promises to deliver a heartfelt, curated experience that embodies the essence of Los Angeles, from culture and art to design and entertainment. Layered materials, patterns, textures, and colors will combine in a cohesive convergence of timeless and modern styles, inviting guests on a rich, multi-sensory journey of discovery.
“We are thrilled to welcome Kali Hotel to Hollywood Park,” said Otto Maly, President of Kroenke Holdings. “As we continue to develop this unparalleled destination where people can live, work, play and now stay, Kali Hotel will enhance the experiences here for our residents, visitors and guests from across the globe.
