Ratings and reviews
2.5 / 5.0
This hotel was super convenient in proximity to shopping, restaurants, the pier, & the ocean! Only downside was the shower-head, which I would presume all hotels are conservative on water usage, however for anyone with a lot of hair, it is challenging to get shampoo & conditioner out from a rain head and not a normal shower-head. Overall it was still an excellent stay!

This was my first time staying at this hotel. It was truly amazing. The staff are fantastic! They made my birthday very special with their own creativity. I truly felt welcomed there when I arrived. They definitely surprised me. I absolutely loved their own personal birthday touches. The place was absolutely beautiful. I will definitely be staying here again. The room is beautiful and the ocean view is stunning. So relaxing.

Here are the things I loved about Ocean View:
Check in staff were very welcoming & friendly. Joy checked me in & she was lovely. All other interactions with housekeeping and valet were also great. Everyone was very nice.
Valet parking entrance made parking easy. We didn’t have to worry about finding street parking.
Location was fantastic for the event we attended. We found lots of great restaurants within easy driving and/or walking distance.
Rooms were QUIET. We were here on Halloween night & it was loud outside but with the balcony door shut the room was peaceful.
The bed was comfortable.
Amenities went above & beyond. The room had a Nespresso machine, earplugs, squares of chocolate, sewing kit, shaving kit, body scrubbers, shower cap, dental kit, & pillow spray!
Balcony had seating for two & lovely view overlooking the Santa Monica Pier & ocean.
The hotel was very clean & had a lovely lobby aroma.

We stayed for one night in September 2024. Up on 4th floor and there’s zero water pressure so don’t expect to be able to have a shower or fill the kettle.
Hotel was noisy but had little to no atmosphere. Shame there isn’t a bar in the hotel to at least get some sort of vibe.
Not the cheapest on the beach either so definitely shop around.

Hotel room was clean, shower was really nice. Receptionist was very pleasant and helpful. Received free towels to bring to beach, bicycles to ride around the city, free pass to fitness studio and discount coupons for dinner at local restaurants. Overnight parking for guest is little outrageous but otherwise we had great stay.

The property was beautiful and they had a lot of special extras for guests such as free sunglasses and so many extra toiletries in the room such as scrubbing shower sponge and sewing kit etc. Theresa signed us in and she has to be one of the nicest people I have ever met at a hotel. She gave exceptional service and was knowledgeable and helpful.
3.0 / 5.0
The location was good and easy to find, as we wanted to see the boardwalk. The lobby was nice and updated. The parking was okay. You had to go in and register, then go park.
The room was okay. We booked a courtyard-facing room, but it really was an alley view, which was a bit disappointing.
For the price of the room, I feel we overspent.

It was right by the beach! Loved the service, the view from the balcony and overall atmosphere!

Very nice Hotel, friendly and helpful staff, nice room with plenty of fresh towels and nice linens on a comfortable mattress. The balcony was tricky to navigate due to size but a welcomed feature. The beach is across the street, a ten minute hike due to the stairs and depth of beach. Many restaurants and shops within walking distance. We would be happy to stay here again.

Poor refrigerator which included items that we would be charged for if used. Beds were uncomfortable, and there were multiple amenities that we were not notified of until our last day.

3.0 / 5.0
The staff at this hotel were very helpful but I didn't give this hotel a high rating because the rooms were so noisy. The aircon was so loud you needed ear plugs (which actually were provided). The shower was hot and cold constantly but the amenities were amazing. The hotel is in a great area for shopping and walking but wouldn't stay here again.
2.5 / 5.0
The location, near the pier and restaurants is perfect. We enjoyed the promised ocean view just like the picture with a small balcony with 2 chairs. Despite the prime location, the interior of the room was very quiet and comfortable. Nice amenities, plush robes and a Nespresso coffee maker in the room. Our welcome and check out could not have been any warmer. A wonderful stay.
5.0 / 5.0
Our room faced the beach with a small balcony. It was clean and well equipped but a little cramped for 3 adults. Staff were helpful and friendly. The hotel gives you a small discount for being "green" and not having your room serviced (if staying 2 nights or more) which we liked as it encourages people to use towels more than once!
3.0 / 5.0
The visit was OK, but on the noisy side. We could hear our neighbor's TV through our balcony window, there were a group of girls banging on a neighboring door, yelling her name at 12:30am and there was a dance party on the sidewalk with very loud music at 2am beneath our balcony -- all in one night!

Very clean and safe. But the beds and pillows are very uncomfortable. My mini bar had drinks half consumed upon arrival so i had to confirm that it was like that and i didn't consume them. $50 parking is crazy but understandable.

It's a nice view!
Because it faces the road, outside noise is a concern.
The staff were also very kind.

Great location. Room was updated and clean. Bed was uncomfortable-glad I only stayed two days. Parking is valet only at $52 per night, which I declined, yet was still on my folio at checkout. Confirmed with front staff and they removed the charge after I mentioned it again. The room came with lots of extra purchases which is not to my taste but can be convenient for others.
