Top Santa Monica College Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Property and staff were amazing!!!"

The Ambrose

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay the location was great for us. Being able to use the bikes also was nice to get around town in a relaxed way. The staff was very nice and happy hour was a nice touch. The only feedback might be the signature sent in the lobby it may bother some people who are sensitive."

Viceroy Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel, very clean, nice staff."

Santa Monica Proper Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The greatest hotel I’ve ever been to."

Gateway Hotel Santa Monica

8/10 Good

"Clean, comfortable. The adjoining restaurant was good. Convenient location."

Courtyard by Marriott Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Every single staff member I interacted with was friendly and helpful. You can tell they are a tight team. Room was comfortable and we especially appreciated having a small couch. Gym was great. The hotel is very close to the pier and beach access and walkable to lots of restaurants and coffee shops. Plus Target and Trader Joe’s right down the street. Very enjoyable stay."

Ocean Park Inn

10/10 Excellent

"WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN!!!! This place is so charming! Just a short drive to anywhere in the area. There is little parking and the spaces are even smaller, but we had no issue getting a spot every night we came back. The rooms are small but the AC is AMAZING!!! The bathroom is small but does the trick. The only complaint I would have is the bathroom door needs to be cleaned of dirty hand prints. A magic eraser would work just fine, but that is probably the Mom in me. They had ear plugs in the room to use, however we did not use them, for we were away from the street but you can hear the people walking down the hall cause the window is right there.Speaking of the window, there are no black out curtains which means the light does come in. Over all though it was very quite!! Other than that my son and I felt very safe and we're talking about when our next stay is going to be. Thank you the Cameron for saving us a room up stairs....see you soon...."
