Independent Ocean Park hotels

"The best customer service and attention to detail in all of my hotel stays. Daniel at the front desk was excellent! The staff who got our rental on a daily basis were great. The cleaning staff was awesome and upstairs restaurant staff at The Penthouse restaurant were spectacular. If you’re going to stay in Santa Monica I highly recommend staying at the Huntley Hotel!"

"We chose this hotel because of its proximity to the Hollywood Bowl shuttle stop. Check-in was easy, staff was friendly, room was spacious and clean, nice area with restaurants within walking distance. Parking was an extra $22 in the adjacent garage. We were disappointed that our fridge was not getting cold enough, but someone came and changed it out right away. Overall a great stay. "

"Totally great value, easy to find. Safe and quiet. Bring your own toiletries. "

"Everything was great"

"We stayed for the weekend. Wonderful property. The California restaurant was a great experience, and provided most of our meals during our stay. It is conveniently located to Universal Studios. "

"Freehand is wonderful! This was our third time staying at Freehand LA. It is in such a great location—very walkable and close to everything! You are downtown yet don’t feel “smothered” in the super busy areas. Our favorite part is the hotel rooftop, where there is a restaurant, great bar and very relaxing pool area (this is called the Broken Shaker). We arrived early and even though our room wasn’t ready, we could safely leave our bags and still use the amenities such as the gym and rooftop. The hotel is in an older building but the renovations and decor give it a nice clean, modern feeling where its charm can be appreciated from both aspects. Thank you for a wonderful experience! "

"Very convenient with transfers to the airport"

"They gave me a late checkout because I had work to finish and were very understanding and friendly."

"Great location for attending the TCM film festival"
