What a show night does to a hotel bill
We price real rooms on real show nights. Below are three of them, each measured against ordinary nights on either side of the same week, so what you see is the event and not the season.
Downtown Los Angeles Proper Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels went from $520 to $697 (+34%) for Yandel - Sinfónico at Crypto.com Arena, .
Hotel Indigo Los Angeles Downtown by IHG went from $270 to $307 (+14%) for YG: The Gentleman's Club Tour at Crypto.com Arena, .
STILE Downtown Los Angeles went from $180 to $198 (+10%) for Kacey Musgraves w/ Gabriella Rose at Crypto.com Arena, .
18 of the 103 hotels that still sell an ordinary night were already sold out for these shows when we checked, and all three dates were still months away. The rooms nearest the doors go first.
Not every show does this. Some concerts barely move the market at all, and a big arena in a city with plenty of rooms can leave rates untouched. Use the map above to price your own date.
