Top Original Muscle Beach Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Santa Monica

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The valet parking is very convenient and it was quick & easy to take our car in and out as we desired. Our room was newly refurbished, very clean & comfortable. We love the location. It’s only a few minutes walk to Santa Monica Pier, downtown shops and we liked being close to Trader Joe’s. The neighborhood felt very safe to walk around any time of day & night. We will definitely stay here again."

Ocean View Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great hotel, good location the beds are hard and uncomfortable. Staff was delightful"

Hotel Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Carmel. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The location unbeatable especially if you come with a pet. In the morning I would just go get coffee next door (you get 15% discount for staying at hotel at Cafe Cielo) and walk to the grassy area within 5 min with my dog for a morning stroll. It’s right by the pier and the beach too and the hotel gives you a list of the restaurants you can get discounts or perks. The rooms don’t come with a microwave or fridge but the hotel has a few fridges that they can rotate, so I was lucky that they had one available for me. You can self-park nearby or use their valet parking. I choose to do valet, it was a little pricey but worth not having to deal with self-parking management over a few days. The hotel has nothing fancy but feels like a robust value with a history. The hallway carpet feels old but it does not have the older smell that you sometimes get in older places. It felt cozy. I would definitely stay there again. Front desk and valet staff were a gem. I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the place."
