The hotel

Retreat to this stylish hotel in a residential pocket of Santa Monica, yet just a shell's throw from the beach and Third Street Promenade. The Huntley is both classy and playful, with a modern urban design, and those little touches that make a difference — we all love a chocolate on the pillow at turndown. But perhaps the real wow factor at the hotel is The Penthouse restaurant and lounge, where both locals and guests come up to the rooftop to watch the sunset over the Ocean. With signature cocktails (and happy hour too), and bar food like cured meats and tacos, this one is definitely worth a visit.

Lovely room & staff, the location to beach, restaurants, bars is very good. Clean spacious rooms. Rooftop bar was modern and lively. I would absolutely stay here again. Not a cheap hotel, but nothing is in Santa Monica for a decent hotel, so comparable to other hotels.

Lots of fees. Disappointing in a few areas. Hot tub was foaming and took hours to get info on why. If your kid likes to swim find a place with a pool.

There was this beautiful art piece behind our bed which also served as lighting. We had the Superior King with the tub, which I loved. We had an ocean/city view and loved everything about the room. We had dinner at the Penthouse and sat by the window to celebrate my husband's birthday. The food was delish and service was top-notch!! We will definitely be back for another staycation!! :) Read less

We loved every aspect of this hotel. The staff, the room, the restaurant. The location. If we ever go back to Santa Monica Beach we will definitely go back here.

Awesome hotel, great amenities, superb service, great food at the Penthouse restaurant, great location. One of the better hotels we have stayed at. Will surely comeback. Our room was very large with view of the city. Bed, seating areas were very comfortable. The room is tastefully decorated with RH furniture. The bathroom was a tad small, but it made up with a spacious shower stall. Be careful with the minibar - high tech trumped customer service in this one - it charges you in 60 seconds if you move an item, whether you consumed it or not. Read less
