Drifter, the first Hybrid Hotel from LA Co, is unique and experimental in its offering.

The hotel offers a mixture of diverse multifunction and multi-use accommodation offerings, entwined with communal areas such as wellness studios, cinema rooms, social lounges, a library and outdoor courtyards.

Influenced by the Bauhaus movement of the 1940s, with touches of modernism, the design approach was fundamentally Minimalist in a effort to provide a more universal foundation that appeals to a broader demographic of guests.
