The Soho House West Hollywood is one of LA’s hottest and most exclusive private clubs. The who’s who of Hollywood are members and the rising stars desperately want to get in. Soho House was founded in London in 1995 as a home from home for people working in creative fields. There are now 17 Houses located in the UK, Berlin, Istanbul, New York, West Hollywood, Miami, Chicago and Toronto. Unlike other club concepts, which often focus on wealth and status, Soho House aims to assemble communities of members that have something in common: namely, a creative soul. The majority of their members work in traditional creative industries, with the film, fashion, advertising, music, art and media sectors, among others, heavily represented.

Jonathans Edward Dickson and Ernest Moore conceived the idea of UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) over lunch in the fall of 1917.

It has a beautiful view since it’s on the 51st floor (penthouse floor of City National Tower), but it’s less exclusive than Jonathan and California Club and their dress code isn’t as strict as the others. City Club Members have access to a network of more than 200 private golf and country clubs, business clubs and resorts.
