The location is amazing. The vibes are immaculate. I also love the pool and cafe in the lobby as well. Make sure you take the bicycles for a spin on the beach during your visit!
The staff and location were great. Across the street from the ocean. The place could really use a bar and breakfast buffet or waffle maker or something. A good coffee machine would be great. The coffee was just so-so with no refills
The staff were very sweet and helpful..
Very awesome staff! Knowledgeable and helpful! Very welcoming and safe. Loved it here!
Beautiful bathtub all the nostalgia! I would give it 10 stars if I could!
The property and the location in Santa Monica were both great. The only drawback for us was that the room was rather tight/cramped and there was music playing loudly in the outside courtyard at odd hours (like in the middle of the night or early morning).
Beautiful retro style hotel. Located in walking distance to restaurants, stores, beach & the Santa Monica Pier! All the employees were so nice & helpful. Got coffee & breakfast at the the cafe every morning inside the hotel lounge area. Pool was heated. Breath taking views from our room. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Igor the front desk person was outstanding and helpful. Nice location. Would stay here again.
The staff is excellent at this iconic, historic hotel. They always remember my name, even when I go weeks before visits. My only complaint about this place is the lack of coffee in the rooms or availability of it before 7:00 AM. My work requires me to leave the hotel before 7:00, so I have to find it later in the morning elsewhere. There aren’t any that open much earlier within a reasonable walk at 5:30 AM.
While not the first thought of a kid friendly hotel, the website said it was family friendly and we wanted to stay for the buildings history and beautiful architecture. We were not let down, the staff was very friendly and inviting of our lively bunch, we raise wildly independent mountain kids. The rooms were spectacular and spacious, more than we expected. The open windows to the coast with a fresh ocean breeze were just what we needed to relax and recooperate on our business/leisure trip. The pool area was fantastic and drinks were available at the rooftop bar which was very chic and had a nice selection. We made use of the coffee bar in the lobby as well and a few shots of espresso is always nice to start the day. The location is everything here, perfect distance to reach all the spots by foot. Every single staff member was kind and courteous, I usually like to highlight those that stand out, but every staff member we interacted with was topnotch, thank you, each and every one! All prices and fees were well discussed before being charged, there were no surprises on the bill.
