Great location and unique retro design. Wi-Fi was spotty in our room.

This place perfectly suits me with great amenities like free wi-fi, 24-hour reception, and in-room breakfast. The staff provided the best local taxi tips on my first stay, making it memorable. I’m excited to come back for a weekend!

I loved the beautiful gardens and unique architecture. Plus, using complimentary bikes to breeze along the beach was a highlight. The penthouse upgrade provided stunning views, making it feel like a special getaway!

Felt at home, no complaints.

The staff's courtesy impressed us, especially Javier, who offered valuable local insights. Our upgraded penthouse provided a stunning view, making our evenings enjoyable.

The pool area could benefit from more maintenance.

We enjoyed our stay with two couples, and the service was outstanding! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome, and the beautiful decor really took us back in time. The spacious rooms were comfortable and tastefully done.

My kids wished there were more evening dining options available.

Had an amazing time with friends! We loved exploring the 3rd Street Promenade and took a nice stroll to the iconic Pier. The rooms felt like spacious apartments, making our stay super comfortable. Just a heads up, parking can be tricky, but the staff helped us out with a pass.

One downside was the lack of drawers or shelves in our room, which made unpacking a hassle. Living out of a suitcase wasn't ideal.

The charming decor and beautiful gardens provided a relaxing ambiance. I especially enjoyed the spacious one-bedroom suite, which was perfect for my needs, providing easy accessibility and a cozy space to unwind after exploring Santa Monica.

More accessible seating areas would be appreciated.

The grounds are beautiful, and I loved the charming vibe of the place. I enjoyed the bike rides around the area, especially exploring the nearby beach and pier. The decor throughout the hotel is unique and eye-catching.

Felt really comfortable, no complaints whatsoever.

Great location and staff, but the wifi was spotty during my stay.

The homemade ice cream at the nearby cafes is a must-try, and the beach vibes are unmatched! The location is primo—just a hop to the boardwalk and Third Street Promenade. Plus, the staff is super friendly!

The bathroom was a tad cramped—seriously, where are the shelves for toiletries? And the noise from the neighboring rooms was a bit much, especially at early hours!

The room was pretty spacious and the bed was comfortable. The decor felt quirky, which I liked. However, the bathroom was super tiny, no space for my stuff, and it could definitely use some updates. No A/C made it tough to sleep during the night, even with the fans working. Overall, it was decent but had some quirks that could be improved.

Palihouse Santa Monica features charming decor and beautiful grounds, creating a cozy atmosphere. The spacious one-bedroom suite was perfect for my needs, allowing me to relax after exploring the lovely nearby areas, especially the beach.

More accessible seating areas would be appreciated.

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed complimentary bikes to explore the nearby beach. plus, our upgraded penthouse room had an awesome view. The massage options and beautiful gardens were super relaxing after a day of activities. The only downside was the old elevator, which was a bit tricky with our luggage, but the staff were always around to help. 😊

Charming vibes and spacious rooms made my stay delightful! The location was a beach lover's dream, quiet yet close to everything. Loved the comfy bed—definitely a highlight!

However, thin walls meant I got an unexpected concert from the lobby. And the bathroom? Let’s just say it was a cozy one-person spa, minus the luxury!
