Santa Monica Proper Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels
Staying at the Santa Monica Proper Hotel was an absolute delight. The room was spotless, beautifully designed with a modern touch, and incredibly comfortable. The gym is well-equipped and perfect for a quick workout. I especially loved the complimentary morning tea and light snacks served downstairs—such a nice little treat to start the day. The rooftop pool and restaurant are stunning, offering breathtaking views of the ocean, especially at sunset. The only minor downside is that there are parties on weekends on the upper floors and ground level, which might be noisy if your room is close to the pool area. However, as long as you’re booked away from those zones, it’s completely peaceful. Overall, this place nails the vibe—stylish, relaxed, and full of character. Highly recommend!
Hilton Santa Monica
This was my first hotel stay during my trip to the U.S., and Hilton Santa Monica delivered a really pleasant experience. The building isn’t flashy or overly grand like some of the high-end hotels back home—instead, it has a cozy, welcoming vibe that feels more authentic and relaxed. The room was spotless, well-maintained, and featured modern amenities. One thing I noticed is that they don’t provide disposable toiletries, which I actually appreciate—it’s clearly part of their eco-friendly initiative. If you need anything, just ask the front desk; it’s simple and thoughtful. Upon check-in, I received two bottles of bottled water, and after finishing them, I could refill using my empty bottle at designated stations around the property. This system is not only sustainable but also super convenient. It’s something I wish more hotels in other countries would adopt. Overall, the location is excellent—easy access to downtown Santa Monica and the beach via public transit. Comfortable, practical, and environmentally conscious. Definitely a top pick for my next visit to the area.
Hotel Shangri-La
The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from Santa Monica Beach, making it super convenient for soaking up the sun and sea breeze. We were upgraded to a room with an ocean view, which was absolutely stunning and made our stay even more memorable. The hotel itself is spotless and well-maintained. Downloading the app was hassle-free and the interface is intuitive and user-friendly. We requested additional housekeeping and an external laundry service, both of which were handled promptly and professionally. Everything ran smoothly, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. It’s rare to find such a seamless experience—this place truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and quality. Highly recommend!
Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica
Staying just a short walk from Santa Monica Beach was a major plus—perfect for morning strolls or sunset views. The hotel only offers valet parking, so if you're driving, you’ll need to rely on that service (no self-parking available), but it’s still convenient and well-managed. One of the best perks? Free coffee served in the lobby every morning at 6:30 AM—ideal for starting the day right. Around the hotel, there’s a great variety of dining options, making breakfast easy to grab on the go. You’ll also find a gas station, convenience store, and even a large Walgreens within walking distance, perfect for picking up travel essentials. The only small downside is the lack of luggage or souvenir shops onsite—so if you’re looking to pick up a few gifts or travel accessories, you’ll need to head out. That said, the building directly across the street is currently under construction, which could mean more buzz and amenities in the near future. Overall, the location is unbeatable, the service is smooth, and the vibe is just right—great value and a comfortable stay.
The Georgian Hotel
Staying at The Georgian Hotel was an absolute delight! The room was spacious and impeccably clean, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night's sleep. Located just a short walk from Santa Monica Beach, it’s perfect for those who love to explore on foot. The neighborhood feels safe and vibrant, with plenty of great dining options nearby. I appreciated how quiet and well-maintained the area was—perfect for a relaxing getaway. With its unbeatable location and excellent service, this hotel is definitely a top choice for anyone visiting Santa Monica.
Hotel Carmel Santa Monica
Staying at Hotel Carmel Santa Monica was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to Santa Monica Beach and the Pacific Park amusement area, with everything you need within easy reach. I loved strolling along the nearby pedestrian street for dinner and shopping; there’s such a vibrant mix of restaurants and boutiques. The hotel itself offers excellent amenities and top-notch service—clean rooms, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s clear they care about guest comfort. I’ll definitely be returning next time I visit Santa Monica.
Gateway Hotel Santa Monica
I stayed here during my English language course in Santa Monica, and it was a great experience. The breakfast was simple but included, which was a nice touch—especially helpful when you're on a tight schedule. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the stay feel welcoming and stress-free. That’s why I ended up rebooking for a longer stay. The location is excellent—close to everything, and super convenient for getting to class by public transit. Overall, a fantastic value with a warm, reliable vibe. Definitely coming back.
Sea Blue Hotel
Staying at Sea Blue Hotel was a great experience overall. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from Santa Monica Pier and Muscle Beach, making it super convenient for exploring the area on foot. The property itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a nice modern vibe. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room to relax after a day of sightseeing. While there’s no air conditioning, the weather was pleasantly cool during our visit, and the fan in the room worked perfectly to keep things breezy. One thing to note is that the neighborhood can get a bit noisy at night, especially if you leave the window open—something we were aware of and managed accordingly. We felt safe during the day, but walking back late at night, we noticed a few people around who made us cautious. That said, it’s more reflective of the local area than anything the hotel did wrong. Overall, the value for money is excellent, the staff were friendly, and the central location makes it hard to beat. I’d definitely stay here again.
The Pierside Santa Monica
Staying at The Pierside Santa Monica was an absolute delight—literally steps from the iconic Santa Monica Pier, making it perfect for morning walks or evening strolls along the boardwalk. The on-site valet parking is a real convenience, especially if you're arriving by car. While the rate is on the higher side at $68 before tax, the unbeatable location and thoughtful touches make it worth every penny. Guests can borrow beach towels, chairs, and even kid-friendly toy sets—perfect for families wanting to spend time at the beach without packing a thing. It’s clear that the hotel goes the extra mile to enhance your stay, and with such a prime spot right on the water, it’s easy to see why this place earns top marks.
Ocean View Hotel
The Ocean View Hotel truly delivers on every front—excellent staff, stunning views, and an unbeatable location right in front of the Santa Monica Pier. Waking up to the ocean breeze and watching the sun set over the water was pure magic. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Being steps away from the pier, restaurants, shops, and beaches made everything so convenient. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of comfort, service, and location. I’d absolutely recommend this gem to anyone visiting Santa Monica.
Rest Haven Motel
I arrived earlier than check-in time, but the staff welcomed me immediately and got me checked in without any hassle. The owners are a lovely couple—so warm and flexible with their service that it felt like staying at a friend’s place. The garden on-site is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, well-maintained, and perfect for relaxing after a long day. It’s super convenient too: there are plenty of restaurants nearby, a 7-Eleven right across the street, and fast food options just steps away. I’m already planning my next trip to Santa Monica just so I can come back here. This place has a genuine charm and excellent value—you won’t regret booking with the platform.
Ocean Luxury Lofts and Suites
I was extremely disappointed with this property. I initially booked through a platform and had a free cancellation option, yet they charged me for the first night despite still being within the cancellation window—due to a date error. When I rebooked, we canceled the day before because of troubling reviews about the hotel. I accepted the $217 cancellation fee without issue, but then the hotel charged me the full amount of $651 instead! That’s completely unacceptable. To make matters worse, the place itself is a disaster. We encountered French guests who stayed only one night and left immediately—they mentioned cockroaches, filthy conditions, and unbearable noise. The room was not clean, the building felt rundown, and the overall experience was far below any standard I’d expect. Avoid this hotel at all costs—it’s not worth the money or the stress.
