Hilton Santa Monica Hotel & Suites

Santa Monica, Los Angeles

Virgin rating

The hotel

With roughly 70 per cent of the rooms at this hotel being suites, it’s easy to get that VIP service in the heart of Santa Monica, and these spacious options are ideal for groups and families. A freshly designed hotel with nods to the ocean, you’re just 3 short blocks away from the famous Santa Monica pier and that sparkling blue ocean. Whatever the time of day you’ll be able to get something to satisfy your taste buds at Monica’s, a farm-to-table restaurant that also offers locally sourced wines and their very own ‘Monica’s beer’ on tap. 3rd street promenade is just minutes away so you can browse the designer shops and enjoy a range of open-air restaurants and bars, or relax by the pool with a good book – the choice is yours.

During our stay at the hotel, we had the pleasure of receiving exceptional service from Ajay Jadhav, the Assistant Front Office Manager. Our room was quite noisy at night, which disrupted our rest. Even at a late hour, Ajay went above and beyond to resolve the issue. Despite the hotel being at full capacity, he managed to secure us a new room after making several phone calls and coordinating with various hotel staff. His dedication and determination truly made our stay much more comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel, and if you ever need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to Ajay—he will do everything possible to ensure you have a pleasant stay! Read less

Booked a room with guaranteed late check in and was told they sold my room and had to go to another hotel which was of substantially lower quality. Horrible treatment by the front desk, I had to negotiate for them to pay for my transportation to the other hotel. Absolutely do not stay here.

Lovely hotel in a great location a 10min walk from the pier and beach. Beds were super comfortable and maid service cleaned the rooms and changed towels daily. All staff were very friendly especially Ajay the front office manager. Great that we could securely store our cases as we had a late flight. Reasonably priced car park across the road if you do not wish to do valet parking. Easy access to the freeway for theme parks. Food from the restaurant was lovely. Would definitely stay here again.
