Top Original Muscle Beach Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing"

Bayside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and staff were very helpful!"

Shore Hotel

8/10 Good

"Generally a good stay, but there was active construction below our room so we woke at 7am to banging and drilling."

Ocean View Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location and the staff are super helpful and friendly. Even though it’s on the main strip, noise levels inside the room were fine."

The Pierside Santa Monica

8/10 Good

"The hotel location is excellent, close to the Santa Monica Pier, beach & the 3rd Street Promenade. Rooms were clean and well maintained. Staff in the restaurant for breakfast were very friendly and kind. For parking, there are several options nearby, including one across the road, while we used the Civic Centre Parking Structure nearby. We did message the hotel both before and after the trip on queries, but no-one replied, although they like sending automated messages to you. Overall, good."

Regent Santa Monica Beach by IHG

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel. We would stay there again. Great beach access. Very walkable with access to transit. The staff is kind. The room is beautiful and large, and pretty quiet despite the lobby having loud music and a bar right out in the open. You could sometimes hear the bass thumping through the wall so they should maybe turn that down. But it wasn’t super noticeable. The only real reason I gave 4 stars is because on one of the days (I think Saturday) we left the room for like 6 hours early in the day and had the service light on. We came back and the room was not clean. We turned it off and hung out for a bit, and then went out again and turned the service light on again. Came home after dinner and the room had never been cleaned or turned down. It was only the one time, and it’s maybe a little picky to complain about it, but for an expensive 5 star hotel, it’s part of the service you expect."

Ocean Lodge Santa Monica Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Close to the beach and the rooms were newly renovated. I thought there was coffee service in the room but there was not. Only in the office which was closed in the morning. No meals available. Office lady was friendly. Parking was extremely limited and very expensive, only 1 handicap spot off the premises. Price was reasonable for high season at the beach."

Casa Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The vibe of the hotel is great- low key elegant and comfortable. Staff is super helpful. Appreciate the bike and chauffeur access. Great location for SM fun."

Sea Blue Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location in Santa Monica beach, walkable to pier and beach, so many good restaurants around. Room is clean and we enjoyed our stay here."
