Very nice, but pricey, beach hotel Expected an exceptional stay for our honeymoon for what we were paying but left rather disappointed However, we did enjoy the great views of the beach and ocean, complimentary bike rentals, excellent outdoor pool and bar area, and the nice restaurants and food options
Cons:-Room was not ready at check in time-Our flight home was delayed and we requested to stay an additional night but they were rude about it and less than accommodatingPros:-Upgraded our room-Excellent service from the staff (minus the front desk lady when we inquired about an additional night) Some of the staff even knew us by name before we left

This is the only place to stay in Santa Monica Obviously, the location can’t be beat Staff were amazing, the place felt really welcoming
Room always looked spotless and the house keeping staff we met were super friendly Concierge helped me set up some surfing lessons and gave us some pointers on where to go diving (though sadly couldn’t help us arrange the ferry out) Breakfasts at Coast were excellent too, with fab service Can’t wait to come back!
Max Sanna
Amazingly well kept hotel, with excellent service all around in a great location right on the boardwalk Food is great, and the rooms are spacious yet very cosy and will let you have a very good sleepThe gym is decent and provides the basics you’d expect in a hotel gym, and is very clean
Perhaps the pool could use a little renovation but it’s still very niceI look forward to stay here again!

In all of my travels and BnB stays, this is one of my favorite places If I’m ever in the LA
area again, I will definitely stay here and I highly recommend it Amy and Shay have created a welcoming environment for guests We felt right at home as soon as we entered Breakfasts were outstanding We were able to talk with Amy and Shay and other guests while we dined Amy and Shay are long-term residents and have a lot of knowledge and experience that they are more than willing to share They also take a personal interest in their guests and the conversations were always interesting Rooms were clean and comfortable; parking was easy

Sweet Dreams B&B deserves the highest of marks for home hospitality!! Our relatives from the East Coast who we don’t get to see often were staying at this lovely b&b in a quiet residential neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, CA, and five more of us who were staying elsewhere in the area, including two vegans, wanted to join them, at an additional fee, of course, for a Saturday breakfast No problem, said innkeeper Amy She fixed all of us a very accommodating breakfast and let us hold a mini family reunion in her lovely home for an hour or so
The whole place is beautiful including a very welcoming back yard, complete with a pool Now we wish WE had stayed there, too! Five stars really are not enough
Jeffry Mckean
My husband and I stayed here a few months ago Every time I think of the highlights of that trip, I think of the wonderful people at Sweet Dreams I felt like I was home when I walked in the door
I felt as if they were watching over me I slept great and knew that things were safe and secure It was nice to be nestled right inside a neighborhood What a great feeling so far from home We were going to a concert, and they found out just the things we needed to know Our successful trip could never have been that way without Sweet Dreams THANKSJeffry and Rachel McKean

This is simply the best hotel in Santa Monica The service from the booking process to checking out is exemplary This was my tenth visit to the hotel since it opened
Ramon at check in was so friendly and helpful – he wrote a list of cafes and restaurants to visit and told me about a local band that was playing at the hotel one evening that week The hotel also offers free bikes and you can book them out for half a day – there is a cycle path along the coast which is beautifulAnother person who provided excellent service was Tony on the bell desk – he is very friendly and helpful Jesse is also another excellent employee who is a credit to the hotel and he helped me with my reservation prior to arrivalThe rooms are spacious and have stylish wooden floors and the balcony is just the right size to sit out and eat dinner on whilst watching the sunset The pool area is clean and never too busy and the hot tub is a welcome addition after a day of cycling!The hotel is in an ideal location – 5 minutes from the pier and 5 minutes from the Third Street Promenade with a range of restaurants and cafesThank you again for another outstanding stay!
Teliese Purdy
After a long day of traveling there is nothing better than being greeted with exceptional customer serviceThis evening Ramon was kind enough to check the system and see if there were any upgrades available (per my request) He walked me through the options and price points and helped me select the best option for my stay
He also walked me through how to locate my room All of this with a polite and professional demeanorIt really set the tone for the duration of my stay and Ramon made me happy that I booked at the Shore HotelRespectfully,Ms P
Robyn
I have so many good things to say about Shore It’s a beautiful hotel, smells great, and staff are friendly, happy, and helpful Parking is easy and a great value (has in and out privileges)
Hotel feels safe, and location is prime You’re across the pier and walking distance to restaurants, grocery stores, convenience stores, and obviously the beach I love the bike rental they provide, that made our Santa Monica visit so much better and I would stay here again because of their easy to use bikes and the location!! The room is modern, spacious, and beautiful They’re not your tacky cookie cutter large chain hotel rooms with the outdated carpets (We didn’t utilize the pool or other amenities but they looked great!) We are 100% starting here again when we return to Santa Monica

If you are at all sensitive to noise while sleeping, do not stay at this hotel My wife and I stayed here after attending a wedding in LA and had one of our worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had The hotel has a nice rooftop, but they play club music from the afternoon through the night
So if you stay on the sixth floor – maybe other floors as well – you can hear the thumping bass through the windows and the walls from the club upstairs On our first night, we dealt with it, but then guests a couple rooms down started screaming in the hallway and on their roof deck from 1 am to 2 am, before we called the front desk twice and then security finally quieted them down We expected Monday night to be more quiet, but it was not In our premium room that we paid extra for an ocean view, we once again experienced thumping bass until midnight By the time we left on Tuesday morning, we had gotten little sleep and were completely exhausted The hotel basically ruined what was up until then a wonderful LA trip Do not stay here unless you want to sleep in basically what amounts to a nightclub I hardly review anything on Google, but I had to leave this review to try to warn future guests
Julia Marks
Loved my stay here All of the staff was so efficient, helpful, and friendly Hotel and room was very clean, housekeeping did a great job of tidying up my room while gone
Great location, but definitely opt for valet parking The valet always brought our vehicle in a timely fashion and saved us so much time from trying to find parking The only downside was the one, slow elevator Other than that, I definitely recommend and will stay here again
Latoya Brown
I would have gave it five stars if my ocean view room wasn’t also the view of the parking lot Which had loud people hanging out all during the day and really late at night blasting music from their cars I didn’t expect to hear that kind disturbance right outside my window
I know Venice Beach is a real popular area that’s why I booked this specific hotel because it’s really close to the beach only 5 minutes away from the boardwalk Also the valet parking was great it cost me $49 a night but it was so worth it and the staff is really nice and attentive, the bed is very comfortable and the room is very spaces and clean

We were very impressed for our Memorial Day weekend stay! We stayed in the king suite The room was modern, clean and enjoyed the fireplace and balcony Their restaurant had excellent views of the ocean
The service was impeccable and everyone was extremely friendly Heater and ac worked consistently and this is definitely a must vs other local area beach hotels

Top of the line everything! Staff is amazing; super nice, attentive and patient Food delicious (had breakfast and dinner) There are not enough eloquent words to describe this location
Had I known my stay here was going to be so relaxing I would have remained there my entire vacation I will DEFINITELY return and recommend it to all I know and even those I don’t

The Malibu of Malibu + Unmatched Southern California Seaside EscapeBeing my second time here, I knew the valet would be exceptional considering the remarkable service they provided us the first time we ever came Just as expected the service was warm, welcoming, helpful, efficient, and consistentOur bags were loaded on to a luggage cart and taken off to meet us in our rooms after check-in
Hotel check in greeted me with, “Happy Birthday!” which is a small but mighty gesture It really set the tone for my intention of how I wanted to spend my staySince we arrived early (before check in) the front desk said we could feel free to explore the grounds, while they expedited our rooms readiness We decided to go to the bar, where Omar made us two Margaritas (no to salt) + (Yes to Casamigos tequila) “It’s my specialty,” Omar said so pleasantly, and he wasn’t wrong We were barely on our second one when Jessica walked right over to us to explain our room was ready for usThis time we were on the second floor, which felt just as great as being on the first, and made me hope that next time we get the third floor, just for kicks Our view was stunning, and faced the ocean straight onBefore our stay we made dinner reservations on premises for 5:30 pm, just before sunset We arrived right on time and were seated in the most perfect place, right againt the glass to enjoy the viewWe ordered the potato croquettes, which were honestly so light, fluffy, and delicious They were finished before we knew it We also ordered white wine and the sea food Tower, which is completely worth the price It could easily feed four people who want to socialize and drink wine and order a couple appetizers as a sideThe sea food tower was so fresh, delicately brined in its own natural juices, and finger licking, claw cracking, petit oyster yummy good I will 10/10 definitely order it againIn the morning we asked for a late checkout, and the hotel was so accommodating, perhaps because it was a Monday the next day I would not expect that courtesy always, but we very much appreciated itWe also ordered room service (which is 24hrs) for breakfast at 715am We had our breakfast on the patio, which was lovelyThe beds are so comfortable The sheets are excellent, but there is also a soft to the touch wool throw, which is great for sleeping with the door open at night We didn’t feel cold at all, but stayed comfy and warm as we listened to the waves crash us into a deep and peaceful sleepDuring checkout Efron helped us settle up, and made us feel so appreciated as guests I definitely can’t wait to come back again, and again, and againThank you Malibu Beach Inn ⛱️ ❤️

I was staying at this hotel when I started not feeling well I was really wanting some comfort food like chicken noodle soup, which wasn’t on the menu Josh, the manager had the chef make me some special, delivered it to our room and comped the meal
What a wonderful surprise! Best meal I’ve ever had Thank you Josh and staff for the special treatment! I highly recommend this place that cares for its guests comfort

A 5-Star Experience! This was our first time staying at a Loews property The front desk staff were amazing and created a magical experience for our family’s 5 night stay Additionally, the restaurant staff were very attentive; remembered our children and their interests, chef made wonderful creations, and items are well priced

Juel McGhee
Location was perfect Minutes from Venice Beach and Santa Monica Pier
You could bike over or even walk We Brought our 7 yr old daughter and she was happy about the water taxi for $1 that you could catch right next to the hotel The hotel itselfI would have a higher review if I did not pay 600 a night Definitely NOT worth that! Hotel is old, boring, beds were comfortable but definitely not queens for the double room Seemed more like full size Not a Ritz Carlton feel at all in hotel Valet was quick with the cars The drains run slow and the refrigerator stunk so bad we could not use it This Ritz is a bare minimum Ritz The staff was nice and courteous We went back and forth with staying at the Marriott across the street for 1/2 the price
Emily Plata
This hotel does not live up to the standards of the Ritz-Carlton name For the price, the stay was not worth it The hotel needs major renovations
Bathroom with a poor quality curtain, only one thin bathrobe Outdated room furniture The balcony to our room had large cement stains and was furnished with cheap decor It was unsettling Please do not stay at this hotel just for the name You are better off staying at a different hotel This felt more like a 3-star hotel I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but I want to caution others to save their money and go elsewhereThe only positive aspect about this hotel was housekeeping and the staff that bring up your room service Nice and attentive hard-working people

It’s quaint & clean, and a bit dated compared to a name brand hotel, but the location on the marina beach is amazing, especially for the price compared to the surrounding hotels We stayed on the 2nd floor with patio overlook of beach 1st floor has a larger patio with a picture window view of beach
Beds are comfortable Mini fridge & microwave are very useful Wall A/C worked great Easy walk to shops, restaurants & ocean, and also a quick drive to ocean beach parking We would definitely stay here again!
Fraser Kerr
Was upgraded free of charge (and without asking) Rooms were large, quiet and clean, with an amazing view of the beach and marina Couldnt have been closer to the beach without actually being on the sand The staff were extremely helpful and friendly
It was close to some great dining and drinking options A mere 10 minute walk to Venice Beach and all it has to offer 10/10 will stay again
Jeremiah Ravenmoor
Price was a little expensive but the scene is worth it It’s very quiet in the morning which I love and any help I needed it Andre was there to help, the other staff while I stayed here seemed to enjoy there job and continued to work Will be definitely stay here again when I return to California
It’s nothing Extravagant but it makes up for Location, hospitality and costumer service

My wife and I booked at the last minute after a change in plans Glad we chose this location based on previous reviews Got upgraded without asking to a marina view on the top (third) floor
The room was nicely appointed with a nice balcony just to the left of the restaurant, not loud at all The heated pool and hot tub were great and used daily (stayed 6 nights) There’s a ton within walking distance (groceries, restaurants, city park, walking and biking paths It was a great choice
Tamara Printy
Perfect location on the water The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating They go out of their way to make your stay as perfect as possible
The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortableThe bed sheets are the softest I’ve ever slept on and the bed extremely comfortable We’ll stay here every time we visit
Chris Williams
Please work on hospitality especially if a mistake is made on your endYou should try your best to go above and beyond for a customer especially if a mistake is made, I didn’t feel that this occurred during my stayFirst they charged my personal card full price for a room that was paid for by my company with contest from me instead of just doing the usual incident fee
Which was a major inconvenienceThen when talking to a concierge or manager about the incident they were very stubborn on doing anything to rectify the situation, but eventually they released the charge, but didn’t offer anything to rectify the inconvenienceThen there was the late fee, even though my stuff was packed and my room was cleaned, because I didn’t know what time checkout was and because I didn’t know that the hotel offered a luggage holding serviceTalking to a customer and trying your best to understand and help the customer would have been better than just seeming money hungryEven though they reduced the charge by 50 dollars which I appreciate, they weren’t very much hospitable or understanding La traffic is a monster in it’s own right and they gave me an ultimatum to come back before the hour even though they knew I was coming back or they would charge me for a full nightI was excited to come to this hotel, because i am a new traveler and this was my first time traveling alone, but the experience that I faced with the manager and concierge I dealt with cheapened and made this experience irritatingHaving a hotel manager insinuate that you don’t have enough money because of a mistake they shouldn’t have made was very annoying and unprofessional as wellThe facility was nice though

My wife and I had a great two night stay here The place is beautiful, staff was excellent, and you couldn’t hope for a better location We flew in early and our room wasn’t ready yet, but the front desk let us use the spa bathrooms to change and clean up, then held our luggage while we took the complimentary bikes out for a ride on the beach path
Big thanks to Antoine for helping us coordinate that ahead of time!Our room kept magically tidying itself up and fresh waters kept appearing throughout the trip Top notch service and everyone was friendly as well We’ll be staying here again the next time we’re in Santa Monica!

Beautiful hotel, with Beautiful decor We were lucky to have our stay when the new year/Xmas lights were still on It gives a wonderful vibe to the Beautiful banyan tree at the entrance to this hotel
The room was nice, but could be more spacious The pool was warm, but the hot tub was spending! The sitting area(s) are amazing With tastefully decorated furnitures The food and the bar was also great The staff is extremely well mannered and the cafe is kid friendly Overall a very good ambience and a wonderful stay The proximity to the beach is great They also offer free bike rides for the same We did not use that service but I would say was a good option Would recommend the place for a good stay near the hustle and bustle

Location was great but the rest of my stay was horrid I encountered 2 very nice people during my stay The gentleman who checked me in and the gentleman who took my luggage
Other than that I couldn’t use any of the amenities I was looked down by staff and disregarded during my stay They would attend the Caucasian people who would be standing behind me and ignored me and my family completely They offer spa amenities to guests with your stay However, when we inquired about the services, the staff were extremely rude by saying that those were only available for guest I had been staying at this hotel for over 3 nights paying $1000+ a night If I couldn’t afford this place for my family, I wouldn’t be there My husband couldn’t even work out comfortably as another guest kept asking if he worked there and making comments like “I didn’t know they allowed staff to use the facility” After he told him I don’t work here, he then kept asking what he does for a living The restaurant hostess extremely rude Never again I have stayed in many many other resorts, hotels, bungalows and they are 100 times more comfortable with better furniture, and cleaner rooms Not Worth your money!!!!!!

Stayed there end of February into March for 5 days We definitely underestimated this place Perfect location for us
Our drives were on average ONLY 20-30 minutes from everywhere we wanted almost To all the popular places Staff were extremely nice, helpful, and no complaints Ability to have our room cleaned everyday Valet parking was quick and worth the money Even late at night when everything was closed a staff member opened the snacks for us Only complaint was that our balcony door was broken and didn’t close all the way and we were fading the 405 so it got loud but we managed to fix it a little Told the staff and they are aware Definitely staying next time we visit LA

We stayed here for one night at the end of May 2022 The hotel has a nice contemporary feel and the pool and fitness area are lovely I wish we had known about the freeway that runs next to the hotel before we booked because it’s really noisy
There was no soundproofing against the road noise We asked to change rooms and were told they were fully booked so they gave us earplugs!Also interested to read about the complimentary valet service on here because we were charged $34 and it was obligatory
Surge Vargas
The stay was not too great I had requested a room with a glass door for the shower I was given a room with a current
When I called to request a changed of room they did not have any rooms of the same type with glass doors even though I was reassured there was before checking into the hotel The current was kind of dirty, so I did not take a shower The room was kind of dirty The bed was really comfortable though, so that’s a positive I probably would have left, but I had an event I had to go to When I was checking out I was getting charged for their “complimentary” ride I was charged twice for a ride to the gas station When I brought it up I was told that it was more than 3 miles The gas station is across the bridge The charges were taken off, but I had to wait for 2 people to review the charges who initially brushed them off I would not stay here again and would not recommend anyone to stay here There are cheaper alternatives that do not embellish, falsely advertise “complimentary” items, and at least compensate for the inconvenience The 1 star is only for the bed and because I could not give a 0 star review

Prime location to be in Santa Monica and the rooms were super nice The balcony overlooks the beach side which we enjoyed a lot! The only downside of this hotel is the lack of amenities but being in such a prime location we didn’t really mind at all, and the hotel staff were all greatThe complementary bike rentals were perfect and and ended up being one of our favorite things we did while in town
Katie Mullen
This hotel exceeded my expectations It was excellent: friendly and accommodating staff, clean rooms, convenient location, beautiful views My son got sick in the night and they were so understanding and helpful
We only stayed during the week so weekends on Ocean might be a bit noisier It’s exactly as advertised: if you’re looking for amenities like a pool, gym, restaurant, this hotel is not for you; however, they have a relationship with the Shore Hotel just down the street, and you can benefit from some of the amenities there
G T
This review is only for the parking service Good service and conveniently located from the beach We headed to Santa Monica Pier on a Saturday night
The streets were packed and so were the parking lots We drove around a couple times before finding the Oceanview Hotel The price was OK since we were carpooling in a van We were also short on time so this option worked out for us Easy access and we were quickly on our way after the valet park service

Stayed here for 2 nights Fantastic hospitality Easy access to the beaches and restaurants of Malibu
It is a great place to stay for some peace and quiet This is a perfect getaway if you can drop off the kids with Grandma for a few days 🙂 Breakfast is a FULL breakfast and the conversations are lively with guests from all overWe will definitely stay again and recommend it highly
Amanda
This is a unique place nestled in Topanga Canyon, about a 10 min drive to the nearest town, and 30 minutes to the beach Driving around here can be kind of difficult/stressful if you’re not used to mountain driving The roads are steep and curved, and not well maintained, so it’s quite bumpy
You definitely want a working parking brake because some parking spots are on a steep incline Also, the area is not well lit at nightThe hotel itself is beautiful with good views of the countryside There are some outdoor porches you can sit on and sip tea in the mornings Very peaceful and tranquil There’s a state park within walking distance with some trails, but it’s not leisurely walking We brought our trekking poles and were glad we had themThe rooms were immaculate and cozy However, the sound insulation is not great at night We could hear people talking and walking upstairs I’m a light sleeper so I found that a bit bothersome The rooms don’t have individual AC so we woke up hot, but opening the windows helped cool it downThe breakfast was very tasty and homemade We enjoyed meeting the other guests at the hotel and had some intriguing conversationAll in all, it was a good visit for some quality time as a couple
Jack LaBarba
My wife and I stayed here on the night of our wedding We did late check-in, which was convenient The room was clean and pleasant, the architecture of the buildings was attractive, and the breakfast was yummy
However, the owner, Warren, sat with us during breakfast and we had an unpleasant conversation with him Simple chatting would have been great, but he kept steering the conversation towards the perils of collectivism, the dangers of immigrants, and the merits of social darwinism I don’t demand that my innkeeper have the same ideology as I do, but my wife and I stayed here with the intention of relaxing, not to be sermonized at or provoked into a fraught political argument

Orlee Hauser
Great hotel! Room was very clean I asked for a quiet room and they put me at the end of a hallway It was so dark and quiet in the room I felt like I was in a sensory deprivation tank! I loved it
The staff is amazing! Especially the front desk workers Super friendly and accommodatingI loved the pool and hot tub which I must say I had to myself The pool is heated which is very nice!The location is really great Close to the pier and beach and third street promenade It is true that there are many homeless people in the area However, the area is heavily patrolled and I didn’t feel unsafe in the least Having said that, any hotel near the ocean in LA will have the same problem At least the Marriot has some safety protocols in placeI don’t usually write hotel reviews but I really appreciated my time here and I recommend the hotel to anyone!
S Marisa
While I had an issue my first night, they quickly resolved and upgraded me to another room The rooms were spotless, I didn’t use the pool or the gym but the outdoor fireplace was great area to unwind at night The hotel only uses valet parking through a 3rd party just outside the front which comes at $49/night, there are other parking options if you don’t mind walking
Would stay again
Richard W
This Courtyard is new, modern and clean The staff is nice and helpful then here comes the issues:Homeless- not hotel’s fault but makes the neighborhood not comfortable to walk around
Hotel Front door is locked and only opens w room key that says somethingPoor soundproofing – People above my unit was super loud They woke us up every morning their walking or whatever they did felt like stampede Not sure who to blame but we didn’t have good sleep all those nightsThey didn’t recognize Marriott status and offer no perks or even a bottle of water… at least to me A Marriott I stayed in LA the same week treated me like a loyal member and I sure will go back to them

My experience at the Surfrider was exactly what I wanted out of a Malibu vacation I was able to easily walk across the street to the beach and pier They offered beach towels, on-site parking, a cozy vibe, and friendly staff
I heard there are Mini Coopers to rent, but I didn’t get a chance to do so The rooftop restaurant is lovely and it doesn’t get better than overlooking the coast They even offered to make me a picnic basket when I called ahead to confirm my booking (it was filled with goodies and locally-sourced items which I thought was well beyond the value I paid for it)The room itself is small but cozy The bathroom shower includes a handheld, which makes it really easy washing away sand and bits — great thinking The housekeeping staff are attentive The entire team made it a point to recognize us, making me feel welcome I couldn’t resist and bought their candles before checking outThank you to the team for running a lovely, chic, modern yet vintage feeling boutique hotel in a brilliant location I will be back!

This is an absolutely wonderful place to stay in Malibu Every little detail was perfect Every single person that works there is so incredibly friendly and helpful
I took my wife there for a birthday weekend and every person that we encountered made sure to wish my wife a happy birthday and really made the experience feel special I’m pretty hopeless when it comes to planning, but the staff at the Surfrider helped me plan and arrange everything for from a beautiful bouquet of flowers that were already delivered to the room on arrival, drinks in the room, in-room massage, and a delicious birthday cake during dinner The in-room massage was amazing All of the drinks and food were fantastic The rooftop deck has probably the best view of Malibu and the Malibu pier and it is reserved for guests of the hotel only so we were able to sit right away If you have an electric car, they have two level 2 chargers in their parking lot It felt like a truly bespoke experience and I cannot recommend the Surfrider Malibu enough We will definitely plan to return in the future
Marsyita Mohtar
Was here for a weekend and we stayed on the ground floor room The service was friendly and accommodatingThe room was fairly small but tastefully furnished
We truly enjoyed our short time hereWe tried the rooftop restaurant for both lunch and dinner Food didn’t disappoint I loved the Thai twist in the ceviche Drinks were creative and delicious Would love to stay here again when I’m in Malibu

Patrick Goodness
We love the JW Marriott brand This hotel does not meet expectations The rooms are average
We were advised upon check-in that the housecleaning service would only be offered every three days We cannot imagine any luxury hotel advising guests that their room will only be cleaned every three days Unthinkable There is no executive lounge and the meal service is minimal The manager did offer us free drinks at the hotel bar to make up for the lack of the lounge At $450/night average, we can think of many better hotels more deserving of our patronage When we return to Santa Monica, we will not return to this hotel
Peter Weiss
Good hotel close to (across the street) from Santa Monica beach Nice rooms, ours had a huge deckHotel staff was very friendly, especially the desk and valets
EV Charger in the garage (free for guests…really included in the parking charge), which was greatGetting Room service was a convoluted mess, menu online was out of date, needed a QR code from the amenity binder that we didn’t have, so had to go to the desk to get the code Selections were fairly limited and price was fairly high
Jess G
This is not a 5 star hotel-it is outdated The drain was clogged and the light around the mirror was out The TV is so far away from the bed-we had the King bed
Food is not great My daughter had a chicken sandwich $25 and it made her sick-Eduardo who is REALLY great took it off the bill!! He in fact went and found me a Coke-they only have Pepsi (yuck)!!! They don’t even have guacamole and chips!! Lol Eduardo is your guy!! Excellent customer service! Benny the manager was great too!! Everyone was really nice there! Love hate relationship with the Valet-they charge you $55 a day but you are tipping every single time you are coming and going-so it ends up at $110+ a day or really whenever you get your car I wouldn’t stay here again! Marriott gave me 15k miles to make up for it-but I definitely think the Residence Inn would of been better

A beautiful modern, comfortable hotel in upscale residential area of Bel-Air The hotel has sitting areas throughout, all comfortable chairs or couches with throw pillows, artful tables with fresh flowers, uniquely designed wall sconces Each circular arched walkway has different suspended lighting
There is wonderful blend of color, shape, texture and all areas of hotel ate lined with trees or flowersAlthough you are in a very busy area of city, the noise of the hustle and bustle is absent It is quite relaxing to take leisurely walk through Swan Lake Gardens, a wonderful variety of colored flowers, palm trees, even redwoods (Sequoias), red bridged walkways, trickling fountains There are two beautiful swans in the lake near reception and Lobby LoungeMy visit to hotel was to see Andy Warhol photography, sponsored by Hedges Project, and to enjoy cocktails at Wolfgang Puck Bar & Lounge It was a relaxing, low stress environment which my husband and I quite enjoyedThe service here is excellent We told valet upon arrival we were there for photo exhibit and he asked if we enjoyed it when we left We also received quick service in cocktail lounge, all servers were very courteous and friendlyThere is no street parking available Valet for our visit $15 (plus tip) It may be less with validation or if you are guest of hotel, so I suggest checking website or calling to verify I will return here for a spa day in near future
Daniel
Best place to relax in LA Staff are all excellent (special shout-out to Francesca) Grounds are beautiful and rooms, as you might expect, are very high standard
It’s expensive but you’ll feel like a millionaire just sipping coffee Not quite 5 stars from me as a few small details just miss the mark and at these prices you expect everything to be flawless 45☆
Kevin in the back
I was lucky enough to attend the MOST beautiful wedding tonight, I don’t know if I actually have any experience to compare it to Obviously, the guests were amazing What impressed me the most, was how professional the staff was
From the valet, to the wait staff Impeccable I understand why this place is what it is Course after course they came out in unison Knew when to pause at a moment when bussing tables would interfere with the experience I’m in awe of the teamwork required to execute such a feat all the while, minimizing their impact on a moment that is so important 5 star that may not be enough
