Top Original Muscle Beach Hotel Reviews

The Pierside Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"Everything great, but pool closed, would have been nice to know"

Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica

8/10 Good

"This is a great hotel in a great location. But like almost anywhere in Santa Monica and the surrounding area, parking is a major issue. Valet parking (your only option—there is no self-parking) is $60 a night. The few street parking spots are free from 9 PM to 8 AM (first come, first served), but they aren't connected to an online meter system (yet), so during the day you have to feed the meter every three hours."

Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel, very clean, area around it was dirty and views of Santa Monica not great because of the smog in the air"

Hotel Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything went well. Check in was wonderful. So helpful and efficient. Parking was convenient and friendly valet personnel. Great location. Dated but clean and good location."

Sandbourne Santa Monica, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"It was good, enjoyed the location and priced appropriately."

Ocean Lodge Santa Monica Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent
