"Great boutique hotel"

"Great staff. Fantastic location."

"Bed was too soft and pillows were too hard. There weren’t q-tips, cotton squares, or bottled water in the room. The man on duty at night-about 8:00PM was awful. He had an attitude. I want to buy a water and he asked how do I want to pay for it. I asked how much it was since prices were not listed. He said it wastes his time to tell me the price and he had been working long hours. What a shame!!! I will never stay at this hotel again."

"Rooms , decors , bathroom looks very old and boring like you are in a hotel that age. 60 years ago Santa Monica is one of the richest city the room decor carpet bathroom looks very ugly and old . "

"We were very happy with our stay at the hotel. The location is outstanding — truly one of its biggest strengths. It is within walking distance of the Santa Monica Pier, the beach, restaurants, and shops, which made our trip much more convenient and enjoyable. The staff was extremely attentive, friendly, and welcoming throughout our entire stay. From check-in to daily interactions, everyone was always helpful and genuinely kind, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. The room was another highlight: spacious, modern, comfortable, and very well maintained. The hotel manages to combine a contemporary style with real comfort, not just aesthetics. Everything felt functional, clean, and thoughtfully designed. As a point of attention, the hotel parking is quite expensive at $65 per night. For longer stays, this can significantly increase the overall cost of the trip. Because of that, we chose to park at a public parking garage located just half a block away, which was a much more reasonable option. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely consider staying here again."

"Hotel is in a great spot, right by the Pier. Pool was really warm, not super refreshing, but the hot tub was nice. Room was great, had a partial ocean view, bed was comfortable. Lots of restaurants around as is the 3rd avenue promenade for shopping."

"We had a beautiful, wonderful time in a sea view room at the Fairmont. The only thing they could improve upon is all the bars etc closing before 10. It would have been great to be able to order a wine to the room for the evening. The hotel is perfectly located though, and the staff were friendly and helpful. "

"The bathroom in general didn’t seem that clean, the floor of the shower etc"

"Everything was great except for the parking. It was a tiny lot that only held about 6-8 cars, and it was tight. The room was awesome, very clean and spacious, and the little sidewalk going down to the ocean was well kept. Very close to Santa Monica Pier."
