"I am delighted to be leading the team through the opening of Conrad Hotels & Resorts' first property in California," said Adam Heffron, general manager, Conrad Los Angeles. "Downtown Los Angeles is undergoing a renaissance of its own as it transforms into a one-of-a-kind global cultural epicenter and we're thrilled to be part of that evolution as part of The Grand LA. Our hotel will serve as the perfect destination for locals and guests alike, offering innovative food and beverage concepts, contemporary and expansive accommodations, inspired amenities, and convenient access to downtown Los Angeles' thriving entertainment, art scene, and cultural institutions when it opens this spring."
Prior to his previous role at the luxury ski resort, Waldorf Astoria Park City, Heffron held the position of hotel manager at the award-winning and luxurious Conrad New York Downtown, as well as a variety of senior leadership roles at Hilton hotels across the Americas over the past ten years.
