Huntley Santa Monica

Santa Monica, Los Angeles

Virgin rating

The hotel

Retreat to this stylish hotel in a residential pocket of Santa Monica, yet just a shell's throw from the beach and Third Street Promenade. The Huntley is both classy and playful, with a modern urban design, and those little touches that make a difference — we all love a chocolate on the pillow at turndown. But perhaps the real wow factor at the hotel is The Penthouse restaurant and lounge, where both locals and guests come up to the rooftop to watch the sunset over the Ocean. With signature cocktails (and happy hour too), and bar food like cured meats and tacos, this one is definitely worth a visit.

We really enjoyed the refreshing view from our hotel room. The comfortable bed and the high tech room amenities. It was quiet and very enjoyable. The staff was friendly and accommodating . I would definitely stay again.

I booked a group event at this modern, stylish upscale hotel with unparalleled ocean views and a sophisticated penthouse restaurant. My guests recieved exceptional service and they enjoyed the proximity to the Santa Monica Promenade. I will be booking my event at the Huntley again next year!

Location, amenities, staff, quality, it's all there. With so many meh hotel experiences in this area, the Huntley was a breath of fresh air. I will absolutely stay here again next time business takes me to LA.
