Top Original Muscle Beach Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Our family of 4 found this to be the perfect place to stay. Reasonable price, 3 blocks to the Santa Monica Pier/beach, tons of bars and restaurants within walking distance. Metro is right across the street. Hotel was clean and quiet. Rooms were very nice. Free breakfast was so convenient with the standard fare - waffle machine, eggs, sausage and breakfast potatoes, various cereals, oatmeal, pastries and breads/bagels for toasting. We would definitely stay here again."

Bayside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were amazing! So friendly and helpful with our sightseeing. The rooms were also very clean, and we didn't ever hear our neighbours or anything like that. Loved this place!"

Fairmont Miramar Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The proximity to the beach is excellent and using two e-bikes for up to two hours free allowed us to scoot down to the beach bike path and back up easily. The pool is lovely but was busy on the Labour Day long weekend. The rooms are well appointed and the staff very attentive. The fridge was not very cold but ok for waters. I’d stay here again."

Hotel Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The room was spotless and smelled nice. Its an older building but they maintain it well. Its in the middle of everything so resturants, shopping and the beach were a few minutes walk in every direction. Very convenient! Will definitly stay again in the future!"

Viceroy Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Since we arrived everyone was super kind, helpful, and welcoming to us. The pool was amazing and the service even better. The food was quite good."

Ocean View Hotel

Shore Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful conyemporary hotel with California beach vibe, perfect location, friendly and helpful staff. A la Carte breakfast (no buffet) won't suit everyone but there are plenty of alternatives within easy walking dustance. On the downside the pool is exceptionally small, and there is significant construction at the back of the property, which isn't great if you have a room nearby."

Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica

"Staff very helpful"

Ocean Lodge Santa Monica Beach Hotel
