I stayed at the Omni for 2 nights, and I have to say that this is one of the nicest hotel stays I've had in some time.
I picked up a tip from this website, and signed up for Omni's SelectGuest program online. It's free and easy to do. If you sign up for that, you get free Wifi in your hotel room when you stay at an Omni, as well as a free newspaper of your choice every AM, and a free AM beverage of your choice, both delivered to your door. It's worth doing.
The Omni emailed me a day before my trip, offering me the option of checking in online, which I did. As it happens, I got out on a flight that was earlier than I thought, and I arrived at the Omni at 2pm. I thought I would be too early to check in, but not so: my room was ready and all I had to do was pick up my room key in an envelope with my name on it at the front desk, and I was good to go. Very quick and easy.
The room was very large, with bed, armchair + ottoman, desk, and a couch, as well as the obligatory TV/minibar armoir unit. The bathroom was also quite large, with a tub and a separate, glass-enclosed shower. The room was reminiscent of some stays I've at the Four Seasons, but not nearly as expensive. I stayed Thursday and Friday nights: the Thursday rate was $179, and the Friday rate was $249, so that averages to $215 per night, I think.
There is a spa/gym on the 4th floor, with a pool long enough to swim laps in, which most hotels do not have. I'm guessing it was 45 feet x 15 feet.
Everything was clean; everyone was polite, and everything went smoothly.
I had dinner one night at a Japanese restaurant called Sai Sai, which is a couple of blocks away, and that restaurant has fantastic sushi. It was some of the best sushi I've had, rivaling even the superlatively great sushi restaurant of northern California: Sushi Ran, located in Sausalito.
I can't think of anything negative to say about the Omni LA. If you need to be downtown, I don't think you can find a nicer hotel, even if you pay a lot more.
