Wonderful!!
Did not enjoy the perfume scent in the lobby area but otherwise terrific!

The hotel is very nice but there is a $39 fee to park each night and we are handicapped so we parked on the street using our placard.

When we checked in there was a squashed cockroach on the floor. When I went to get coffee the next morning the milk was sour and curdled. The electronics that were supposedly in the room either were not present or didn't work. Impossible to get the TV casting to work, and the white noise machine referred to on a card in the room wasn't even there. When we called to ask for one, the person at the front desk told US to come down and fetch it and then wasn't there when we actually came down. We had to wait for 15 mins with three other people who also needed service. And all this for $400+ a night. What a ripoff.

Sorta basic for what they charge. Bed not comfy but it was clean and trendy feeling.

Perfect stay at the Ambrose - conveniently located in a residential area of SM, which means you get to avoid tourists, traffic and parking pains while getting the best of SM at your fingertips. We loved the 3-mile Tesla service and the lovely sitting areas in the lobby. Every morning we walked across the street for croissants and coffee at Tartine. Couldn’t recommend Ambrose more!

Cleaning every 3 days was fine but then the cleaning was not good.
Price was very high.

It was very unclear when food was available. Card in room said 7 am to 7 pm but the kitchen was closed at 6. No explanation.

Easy parking
4.5
Everything was wonderful. After our flight to lax was delayed 16 hours we couldn’t arrive in time for our first night. The hotel very kindly said they wouldn’t charge us for the unused night. The staff was was very helpful, the room was comfortable and clean, the common areas were attractive and inviting, there was 24-hour coffee, and I could go on. For half the price we used to pay in Beverly Hills, we got a convenient location near Brentwood and even a free car to take us to locations within 3 miles. This is our new LA hotel.

Beds and pillows horribly uncomfortable. Lumpy pillows and bed.

This is a lovely small hotel near UCLA Medical Center in St. John’s Hospital. It is not in the center of the dining or shopping scene for Santa Monica, but is an easy Uber ride away if that’s where you were going. They do have nice restaurant delivery options and there’s a beautiful bakery across the street for breakfast and a light lunch. if you are visiting Santa Monica because of a friend or relative at the medical center, there is a medical center rate at the hotel as well. While I couldn’t participate in the evening Wine hours because of my schedule it’s a wonderful amenity that I saw many people taking advantage of . I’d like to thank Brandon and Nick for being so kind during my long visit.

Great place to stay. Good location for us. Lovely terrace. Free happy hour. Parking convenient and secure. Only issue we had was our room was located over an alley where garbage pickup and deliveries were early morning and rather loud

Free parking right underneath the hotel. Quick easy check in, friendly staff. Complimentary beer and wine happy hour from 5-7 and the bartender was awesome. Very happy with the bathroom lighting and makeup mirror. After a long night out we melted into an incredible comfortably bed. We appreciated their 12pm check out even though we had to leave earlier.

Would recommend to anyone
4.5
The hotel was cute and the staff was very helpful.
They offer free coffee, tea and water all day, as well as wine and beer for a few hours in the evening. They also offer a free 3 mile shuttle until 8pm so you can enjoy dinner in downtown Santa Monica without having to worry about finding parking. The bakery in front of the hotel was delicious.
My husband and I have already talked about staying at this hotel again if we return to Santa Monica during our stay. Highly recommended.

Lovely boutique hotel. Nice beds and baths. Love all the little areas to hang out around the lobby and outside. Like different “rooms”. Free tea and coffee all day is fantastic!
4.5
The hotel is nice and in good condition. The A/C didn't work properly in our room so we had a terrible night. Also the pillows are huge

This place is awesome. Free car service within three miles, which we used twice. Walkable to the beach. Amazing staff, great service and super clean. They also have free happy hour every night, which we took advantage of a few times. The parking is easy. I would highly recommend The Ambrose!
