The hotel

With roughly 70 per cent of the rooms at this hotel being suites, it’s easy to get that VIP service in the heart of Santa Monica, and these spacious options are ideal for groups and families. A freshly designed hotel with nods to the ocean, you’re just 3 short blocks away from the famous Santa Monica pier and that sparkling blue ocean. Whatever the time of day you’ll be able to get something to satisfy your taste buds at Monica’s, a farm-to-table restaurant that also offers locally sourced wines and their very own ‘Monica’s beer’ on tap. 3rd street promenade is just minutes away so you can browse the designer shops and enjoy a range of open-air restaurants and bars, or relax by the pool with a good book – the choice is yours.

Hotel was decent, beds were comfy. Easy check-in, complimentary water was nice! except for when we asked for complimentary water and the receptionist snapped at us saying water is ONLY for check-in guests (guess it wasn't complimentary after all!) Aside from the receptionist making us uncomfortable.. it was a nice stay! Thank you Hilton

Nice modern decor, remarkably quiet for a holiday weekend. Valet parking was quick and friendly. Nice restaurant and bar in the hotel. Walking distance to the pier (about 4 blocks) full of places to eat, and plenty of small boutique shops to visit. Nice swimming pool and gym. Our room was "ocean view" but small, 2 beds (too small for queen), with minimal furnishing. Only 1 chair. The bath was spacious with a nice shower. The other room we reserved was slightly larger with 2 queen beds and "city view" with a smaller bathroom. No chair, just a small ottoman. Weird. Both rooms were clean and the bedding and pillows were very nice. One complaint was the dishes and bags of trash sitting in the hallway over 2 days before it was picked up. The other complaint was the expensive restaurant. That said, the menu was creative and the food tasty, not too oily or salty, and even a couple of healthy items. If there was other parking besides valet, we didn't see it. But valet parking was convenient, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick. We would stay again. Read less

Great location, walk away from Santa Monica beach. Nice size rooms and everyone was nice. Good price and the buffet breakfast was nice but not a lot of options. Was a bit cold when we went so couldn’t use the pool unfortunately. Room was nice and clean.
