PHOENIX, AZ, June 10, 2013 - - Officials with the Historic Mayfair
Hotel today announced the selection of MJS Hotels, a nationally recognized
owner and operator of full service hotels, to manage the 1920’s era downtown
Los Angeles hotel. The hotel will
undergo a substantial renovation, as part of an overall repositioning strategy.
The hotel
was the site of the first official Academy Awards after party in 1929, and,
over the years, has been featured in numerous movies and television shows
including “True Lies”, and “Weeds”.
“Los
Angeles hit a new record high for tourism in 2012, welcoming 41.4 million
visitors who occupied 26.6 million hotel rooms,” said Si Sloman,
managing partner of MJS.

“This growth, due in
no small part to the tremendous success of the LA Live complex and the efforts
of the Los Angeles Convention and Visitors Bureau, has caused many of the industry’s most prominent brands to
continue to commit substantial capital to build new hotels in the area that this
hotel currently serves.
“Our team has decades of experience turning around
under-performing hotels, and I am confident that with the Mayfair’s inherent
assets, a great location, unique style and glamorous history, we can quickly establish a firm foundation
from which it can become the preferred choice for people traveling to Los Angeles.
“The Mayfair has great bones and a back story befitting its
Los Angeles location,” Sloman added. “I
have no doubt that its future will be as exciting as its past.”
