  Location of Bella Union Hotel in the Los Angeles metropolitan area | |
The Bella Union Hotel in Los Angeles, California, constructed in 1835, is California Historical Landmark No. 656.[1] It was effectively the last capitol building of Mexican California under Governor Pio Pico, in 1845–47, and was a center of social and political life for decades. The hotel was located at N. Main Street, on the east side, a few doors north of Commercial Street, which then ran east–west between Arcadia and Temple. The hotel was later known as the Clarendon and then as the St. Charles.[2][3][4][5]
