LOS ANGELES — The Yucaipa Companies has received a $93 million loan for the 384-room Line Hotel in Los Angeles. The newly renovated lifestyle hotel is located in the Koreatown neighborhood.
The 12-story, full-service boutique hotel opened in 2014. The Line is a new lifestyle hotel brand owned by Ron Burkle’s Yucaipa Companies and managed by Sydell Group, a hotel management company co-founded by Burkle and Andrew Zobler.
The funds were used to refinance an existing renovation loan after recent multi-million-dollar improvements at the property. The new loan will also provide additional funding for minor ongoing property renovations. The sponsors plan to reposition the first-floor lobby and restaurant areas, as well as upgrade the grand ballroom. Natixis provided the loan.
