The Anthem Hotel Introduces the “Soccer Legends Suite” Celebrating American Soccer Culture | News
The Anthem Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, announced the debut of the Soccer Legends Suite, an immersive guest experience celebrating some of the legendary players, moments and culture that shaped American soccer. The suite was unveiled June 10 with a special ribbon-cutting ceremony featuring Tony Sanneh, Joe-Max Moore and Jeff Agoos of the National Soccer Hall of Fame, as Los Angeles prepares to welcome the global soccer spotlight.
Located in the heart of the LA Stadium District, The Anthem’s Soccer Legends Suite pays tribute to the sport’s legacy, inspired by some of the most memorable moments in American soccer history, with rare memorabilia, historical artifacts and thematic design elements. For fans traveling to Los Angeles this summer, The Anthem Hotel is designed to be more than a place to stay; it’s the place to experience the energy, community and celebration surrounding one of the biggest moments in international football.
Highlights include a tribute wall featuring Tony Sanneh’s U.S. National Team jersey, a DaMarcus Beasley game-worn jersey, Hall of Fame scarves, autographed memorabilia and custom embroidered cleats worn by Landon Donovan. Throughout the suite, the spirit of one of the world’s oldest and most beloved sports comes to life through a striking football goal headboard, artificial turf-inspired features and displays celebrating generations of players who helped take the game to the next level.
“The Soccer Legends Suite is designed to celebrate the passion, history and community surrounding football’s greatest moments,” said Ruben Lopez, General Manager of The Anthem Hotel. “It’s a chance to experience the excitement while being surrounded by some of the players, stories and artifacts that helped shape this incredible sport.”
At the unveiling on June 10, the ribbon was cut and guests and media were able to meet Sanneh, Agoos and Moore.
In addition to honoring the sport’s history, the Soccer Legends Suite supports its future. During the summer tournament season, a portion of proceeds from guests booking the suite will benefit the Sanneh Foundation, the non-profit organization founded by Tony Sanneh following his retirement from the LA Galaxy and professional soccer. The Foundation works to empower youth, improve lives and unite communities through sport, education, healthcare and programs that promote diversity, equality and well-being.
“Football has this unique energy and the power to bring people together,” said Tony Sanneh. “It’s exciting to see a destination like The Anthem Hotel creating an interactive experience that celebrates the best of sport while giving back to youth and communities through The Sanneh Foundation.”
As part of the experience, Cymbiotika, a partner of Tony Sanneh and The Sanneh Foundation, will offer a special welcome gift to guests who book the Soccer Legends Suite during the international summer of soccer in Los Angeles.
The Soccer Legends Suite is the latest example of The Anthem Hotel’s immersive programming strategy, which transforms guestrooms and shared spaces into experiences tied to key sports, music and cultural moments. Located just steps from Los Angeles’s premier sports and entertainment venues, The Anthem continues to create opportunities for visitors and locals alike to participate in the events that shape the city.
The Anthem Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, is located at 3900 W. Century Blvd., Inglewood, CA 90303.
