Shore Hotel

Santa Monica, Los Angeles

Virgin rating

The hotel

At night, with soft blue lights illuminating its clean lines and imposing lattice canopy, the Shore Hotel sets the stage for a memorable Santa Monica stay. This sleek boutique hotel is committed to an eco-conscious approach to luxurious accommodation. So, while the rooms are minimally elegant, they incorporate sustainably sourced materials wherever possible. The private pool is solar heated, and the friendly, casual Blue Plate Taco restaurant isn’t just the kind of place locals seek out, but uses locally farmed ingredients to make its ceviches, tacos and other modern Mex cuisine. And as downtown Santa Monica is within walking distance, you can do your bit for the environment while getting to know this stylish LA neighbourhood.

My family and I spent 3 wonderful nights at the Shore Hotel as our home base while visiting the LA area. The champaign welcome (and sparkling cider for the kids) was a nice treat after a long day of travel.

My family and I spent 3 wonderful nights at the Shore Hotel as our home base while visiting the LA area. The champaign welcome (and sparkling cider for the kids) was a nice treat after a long day of travel. We received a warm welcome and helpful suggestions from Ramon at the front desk and found the rest of the team to be incredibly friendly, too. Considering the attentive staff, well-appointed rooms, the fabulous location near the pier and restaurants, and the hotel amenities, you can't go wrong at the Shore Hotel! The pool was lovely and the use of the hotel beach cruisers was a family favorite! Read less

After originally being booked at another location, we were re-booked at The Shore by the management, which ended up being awesome. Our room had a great view and the hotel location was perfect.

They were doing some renovations at the restaurant, but that didn’t bother us at all. Only negative…couldn’t get the tv to work, but who needs a tv when you have the California sights to see and experience! Special ‘shout out’ to Ramon who treated us with extra special care!!!

Amazing staff and beautiful hotel!! Location is perfect, right across street from beach and easy walking to restaurants, shops, bars. Food was great and pool is pristine. Incredibly quiet, given proximity to all the action. Definitely recommend!!

Ramon Bravo -Front Desk Supervisor went above and beyond with room assistance as well as recommendations for things to do and places to eat. When here don’t forget to visit Raul at the bar near the pool! His mixology skills along with the views of the Santa Monica shoreline are the perfect combination! And a thank you to Tony for your helpfulness as well! Read less
