Los Angeles Times runs international hotel complex (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

labyrinth

'complex' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'los angeles times runs international hotel' is the wordplay.
'los angeles' becomes 'la'.
'times' becomes 'by' (both can mean 'multiplied by').
'runs' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'international' becomes 'int' (abbreviation for international).
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'la'+'by'+'r'+'int'+'h'='LABYRINTH'

(Other definitions for labyrinth that I've seen before include "Maze, tangled network" , "perplexing route" , "Maze-like structure" , "listening equipment" , "perplexity?" .)
