Paradise in Paradise”
Did not know what to expect when booking. Once we arrived any uncertainty was gone. Beautiful building in an even more beautiful location. All staff were friendly and over accommodating. Room is amazing. All views are incredible. So many facilities. And location can’t be beat. Among the best value for our money ever. Make sure you have at least one drink on the Onyx rooftop bar.

Wonderful Location!”
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Shangri La, the location is perfect close to beach access and a short walk to lots of shopping, restaurants, and the pier. The hotel design makes you feel like you are staying in a golden age of Hollywood hotel. We also stopped at the rooftop bar for a couple of cocktails, it is expensive but the vibes and view are worth it!

If there's a better Hotel Manager than Sven Norreberg, I liked to stay at his/her Hotel.”
This art deco Hotel has a fabulous location, facing Santa Monica beach, the view of which is best observed from the rooftop bar. Any stay at this Hotel is made more pleasurable by the attention to detail meted out by Sven Norreberg, the dynamic Manager, who is absolutely dedicated to his job & his guests.

Fantastic hotel, great location, exceptional staff and very safe security aspects”
Loved the very quirky old fashioned internal lifts (elevators) to our room levels. I asked for an Ocean view room and was certainly not disappointed ! Great views of the Ocean Will definitely return to this threat hotel

True Bliss at Shangri-La ”
My stay was perfect!! I was right on the coast! The staff was super accommodating at every turn and worked hard to make sure I was taken care of! It’s an older building but it was impeccably maintained to high standards. I will be back.

For Ocean Ave hotels - impressive”
Lots of good things about this hotel. The Agoba to hotel connection glitched a bit which was an initial issue, but it all balanced out. I would’ve appreciated comping of a meal or something, but no worries. The 6th floor terrace was awesome for ocean views, the room was very clean and spacious. Other floors no terrace, but great views. Access to the beach included 111 steps, PCH overpass if one took the direct route, so carrying heavy lawn chairs challenging. Otherwise we plus 70s couple were able to walk to many places. For Ocean Ave hotels, this one was pretty impressive for our purposes. For direct beach access, look on Appian Way! We would stay again!

The Shangri-La is great but I really dislike the $25 a day amenities fee. There is no mini-bar, I didn't use the pool or ping-pong table. Also, the light to the right of the sink is out - Rm 204. Staff was very pleasant. We would've gone to the rooftop bar if we'd known about it. I had breakfast w/ a resident of Santa Monica who told me about it. Thanks!

Lovely hotel in an amazing location-- I truly enjoyed my stay. My one complaint is that the staff asked me 4 times to show proof of my hotel room key as if I appeared to be "out of place." It made my friends and I very uncomfortable.

I was surprised with the very difficult access to our tub/shower. I was also surprised that our room had a cracked window. I noticed a second cracked window in the stairwell between our floor the 5th and the lobby floor.
