Kimpton Hotels, a luxury boutique hotel line with locations throughout the United States, operates the hospitality portion of the building under the name Hotel Palomar. The 262 luxury hotel units are housed on floors seven through 16 and were completed with 4.5 star quality finishes.

Parking is located on floors two through four as well as on the basement level. The ground level consists of retail space as well as the residential and Hotel Palomar lobbies.
