Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a nice view facing the pool and was quiet. The service was warm and welcoming, although there were some issues with communication. The location was great, close to attractions yet peaceful. The dining experience offered fresh food options but lacked in some traditional dishes. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, but they lacked that fresh crispness. However, they were nicely appointed, and the staff was truly amazing and respectful. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring without the need for a car, although the beach view was just a peek-a-boo of sand and ocean. The dining experience was plentiful and delicious, offering a great selection of cocktails and snacks. The facilities were top-notch, providing all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
The hotel has nice rooms although the bathrooms are a bit dated and lack privacy. Unfortunately, our room wasn't ready on time, and it was noisy being next to a utility closet.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with an excellent beach view from my room. The sea was clean and quite spacious despite the early morning noise from neighboring guests. The hotel staff was kind and accommodating, and the location offered a true holiday ambiance close to the beach and downtown Santa Monica.
I absolutely loved the hotel's fantastic location close to the Santa Monica pier and surrounded by the charm of classic Hollywood glam. The rooms were clean, fresh, and super comfy, offering a great stay despite some noise issues. The service was a mix of unhelpful incidents but also a delightful surprise with a staff member going above and beyond to make our stay special. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but overall, it was decent with fresh food options. The facilities were great overall, adding to the enjoyment of the stay.
The hotel rooms were very clean with an ocean view, but being on the 9th floor meant looking over the top of other buildings. The concierge provided great tips, and all staff were helpful, though there were some issues with service around the bar in the evenings. While the room was smaller than expected for the price, it and the hotel were overall very clean and well-appointed, suitable for a couple or solo traveler like myself.
The hotel offers modern, clean, and spacious rooms for a great night's sleep, but the inconvenience of having to change hotels weighed on my experience. The service was nice, with friendly staff offering some perks, although relocation was a hassle. Its location is perfect for exploring Santa Monica and enjoying the beach, but the ambiance was lacking. The dining experience was excellent with quick service but lacked variety in food options. Overall, the hotel had its ups and downs, providing a mixed stay.
The hotel was spacious and luxurious, a great property overall. The front desk efficiently addressed any issues, making it worth the money for our family of three. However, if you prefer quiet, beware of a room on the second floor adjacent to the fitness area.
