Top Santa Monica Hotel Reviews

The Lodge 30A

10/10 Excellent

"The only negative I could really find was the 10am check out and I couldn’t get a later one. Other than that, it was a great place with local shops and restaurants within walking distance"

La Quinta by Wyndham PCB Coastal Palms

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arriving, there were hiccups with the place that I had booked this hotel. It’s a long story, but the bottom line is Cheniqwa and Jenel we’re so so kind and helpful. They put a lot of effort into figuring out what happened and if I was going to be able to stay there and I was and it all worked out perfectly I can’t even tell you how nice it was to be at a hotel that was so accommodating and so kind and willing to do anything to make my stay wonderful and they did those two really deserve some sort of reward or something because to be honest I have never been someplace that they took the time to help me. I will definitely stay there again."
