Where to stay in Santa Monica
Santa Monica hotels & accommodations
We had a wonderful stay at The Shore hotel. Wonderful, friendly staff from the minute we walked in till we left. It’s in a great location to everything Santa Monica, shops, restaurants and beach. We took Uber and Lyft everywhere instead of hiring a car. Getting to Hollywood, Universal Studio and Disneyland was a long trip (up to 1 1/2hrs). Did not realize how big LA i...
My husband and I were at The Huntley for our 10th wedding anniversary, the hotel and staff (Jonathan, Carlos and especially Joanne) went out of their way to make us feel very welcome. We dined in The Penthouse Restaurant, where Lisa our hostess ensured that the service was excellent, as was the food. The room we had was great, and I would recommend The Huntley to anyon...
We were a group of 4 females (aged 21-25) and we stayed in a Terrace Suite which was extremely affordable between the four of us. The suite and hotel in general was very luxurious, excellently located (across the road from Santa Monica Beach, a short stroll to the pier and about a block away from the fabulous Third St Promenade shopping area). Staff were excellent and ...
Loved it, it's a bit pricey, but not more than other hotels in the area. Staff was excellent, would recommend to anyone looking for a nice hotel in Santa Monica.
A much more affordable spot if you are willing to walk a bit or take an Uber or Lyft. You can still enjoy everything Santa Monica has to offer, as well as the rest of LA. Beds are very comfy and rooms/bathrooms are spacious and clean. Be sure to request the top floor. I switched rooms because the people above me kept me up most of the first night there--lots of sto...
They treat everyone with kindness, my family saw the place and told me we didn't belong there, but the front desk treated us excellent and made us feel at home. We even got an upgrade to a double queen with a balcony. They have a shuttle that will take you anywhere within 3 miles and pick you up. They also have a evening reception where they offer snacks and drinks! 🤯...
No complaints about the hotel. It was clean, well-maintained and right in the heart of Santa Monica. A big thank you to Gerald (reception staff) for taking the time and initiative to help a friend and I with all of our travel needs. Great place to stay in Santa Monica!
the car mar hotel is good hotel stay in santa monica near to santa monica pier is about 10 minutes walk a good choice of resturant are all near by clean hotel has swimming pool staff and friendly has i said excellent choice to stay when in santa monica 10/10
First we had a small room close to Sankta Monica Blvd and we could change to a room that was more quite. We appriciated parking, breakfast and the pool. That made the room value for money. However next time in Santa Monica we will probably stay closer to the beach, now you must take the car to the beach (15-40$ parking fee) or down town Sankta Monica, that is a lovely ...
Location is perfect. <5mins walk to Metro train station, shopping mall, bus station and the pier. Room rate is not cheap tho but then again it is closed to everything you need and want. McDonald is just few steps across the street. There is $20+ parking fee. Breakfast is not included in the price. I didn't avail parking n breakfast. It was a good experience and luv...
Coudn't complaint about the hotel itself. It was in the best location. Large room with separate living room space. I wouldn't mind visiting here again if I get a chance to stay in Santa Monica. Good Value!!
We arrived tired after traveling from NZ and were given a very early check in and excellent service. Very close walk to Santa Monica beach
This hotel looks new and it’s very clean too. It would be perfect if there’s space for me to put my toiletries in the bathroom and if the breakfast choices change on daily basis will be 👍.
This is an old hotel, but some of the rooms have gone through a renovation. I love the location, and the fact the windows really open. It's not new, and it's not super fancy, but the people are pleasant, parking is easy, rooms are large and I like its funky vibe. I'm in Santa Monica several times a year and I always stay here. If you are looking for fancy and new, then...
Convenient location. kind staffs and very clean. willing to stay at the hotel again!
Very friendly staff at the motel,our room wasn't ready for us when we arrived which wasn't a problem as we had a long trip from Las Vegas we wanted to stretch our legs and was given a couple of free ride passes for the fun park on the pier for our inconvenience. Although there was no A/C in the room there were fans to keep the place cool. Convenient to get into Santa M...
Very small but clean room with excellent bed. pretty well located motel, in a 8-10 minutes walking distance from Ocean Boulevard and Santa Monica's trendy streets. Worth the price we paid.
Perfect in Santa Monica, walk to the beach, access nightlife, and very exclusive and cool and full of movie stars
We were only there for a short visit so didnt get to use many of the facilities, however we had a very pleasant stay overall. Upon arrival the staff were very welcoming and quick to check us in. Our Room was very nice, comfortable and clean. The location was good, just a few minutes walk from Santa Monica Pier. Would definately recommend and stay again.
We stayed for 2 nights with 3 children (9,7,5) in the family suite and had a great time. The hotel had just re-opened a week before our arrival which meant all was brand new and really nicely renovated, but all facilities were not yet finished. The restaurant did not serve warm food, the spa was not opened and the roof-top terass not finished. But the staff really did ...
I've been staying here for years, all good.
