Who Will Be Marriott's Neighbor at LA Live: Schrager or Rock Stars?

Curbed LA has some great scoop today on the potential hotel that may open up across from the JW Marriott at LA Live (and also attached, a Ritz-Carlton).

Latest rumor about that mystery AEG-funded hotel--planned for right across the street from LA Live--comes courtesy of Karen Englund, director of sales and marketing for Marriott at LA Live: She tells us that the new hotel will likely either be a Hard Rock (as noted before) or an Ian Schrager hotel.

Now we, like Curbed, read the words Ian Schrager and we immediately thought of Edition Hotels. But we have to remember that Ian still can open up his own independent hotel a la Gramercy Park. But we bet Marriott would much rather an Edition Hotel than a competitor like Hard Rock.

We say? While we would love an Edition to open up in our backyard, a JW Marriott and a Ritz-Carlton might be too many luxury hotel rooms. Besides LA Live fits the Hard Rock brand better. Just our two cents. What do you think?
