Over 5000 tourism professionals descended on Los Angeles this week for U.S. Travel’s IPW, the largest generator of international inbound travel to the United States.

One of the hottest areas in Los Angeles during IPW was West Hollywood, thanks to stylish new luxury hotels, standout bars and restaurants and a thriving entertainment scene.
