The Bluestem Hotel – the first boutique hotel to open in the city – is owned by the Chanani family, who after more than 20 years of operating local hotels, realized the need to bring unique, upscale accommodations to the thriving Torrance area of Los Angeles. Ideally situated at 2448 Sepulveda Blvd., the transformed Bluestem Hotel offers corporate, leisure and group visitors convenient access to the renowned beaches and dining at Southern California's best breweries and restaurants. The hotel was designed by Greenwood & Black Interior Architecture Firm, built by Level 3 Construction, and is managed by Marquis Hotels Group.
