Needed a getaway close to home for my birthday weekend. Love mid-century modern decor and the boutique hotel environment so I chose the Belamar Hotel. I was not disappointed. I planned a girlfriend's getaway/slumber party last September. My room -no. 225 -aka the Josie Suite was large enough to accommodate 2 roll away beds in addition to the comfortable queen...

Great hotel as far as atmosphere, rooms, comfy beds and linens. Good convenient location as well which makes it easy to go into Manhattan Beach (coastal), Hermosa Beach, freeway and the airport (LAX).
Only challenge for me was that the space heater under the window was very noisy and clicked on every minute or so. Finally found my ear plugs...

We understand our guests may have a hard time staying or falling asleep now and then, as well as the occasional noise that may come from a faulty A/C unit or party in the courtyard. That's why we keep a...

By now we've probably stayed at The Belamar in Manhattan Beach at least a dozen times. We used to stay at the Marriott, but have found the smaller, more personal experience at The Belamar much more satisfying. The staff is always helpful and friendly, the rooms clean and comfortable, the food great and the valet staff terrific. No problems, no...

This unique hotel is located within walking distance to great restaurants, services, and a mall. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There's a beautiful jogging path just steps from the hotel which goes right to the beach and the seaside downtown area. The hotel's fitness room is small but adequate if guests prefer to exercise indoors. A small fleet...

Beautiful place and friendly staff. I grew up in Manhattan Beach and have a rental house there. I had an event in the area and have always wondered about Belamar. The hotel met all of my expectations and I would definitely consider staying there again.

Dear lucyvp67,
I can't think of a better way to start my week than reading your review lucyvp67. Thank you for your excellent review of the Belamar Hotel and Second Story Restaurant!
We certainly agree the Belamar Hotel is a "must" when visiting the area. It's nice to see you acknowledge our Manicures and Martini's on Monday evenings and not...

This is the third time we've stayed at this hotel over the past couple of years. It has a nice upscale hip decor and is very dog friendly! The dog fee and room charge for one night are less than the nearby Marriott that charges a $200 non-refundable dog fee. The location is very convenient to shopping and nice dining....

Dear Madelynn W,
You are so kind to bring you doggie with you on your travels, I'm sure she must love you very much!
I have a day by day dog calendar at home and one of the quotes read something like this "You can tell a person's soul by how well they treat dogs" and I must say, I...

I was quite surprised by this boutique hotel in Manhattan Beach. The rooms were terrific and the front desk staff were very friendly and accommodating. The bar and restaurant were the perfect environment for a single traveler and the menu was great. I only wish that it was closer to the beach, however the bikes were a great touch. As...

I cannot speak highly enough of the Belamar - both the property itself and the service. It's SO much nicer than being in some huge hotel that's part of a chain, and the friendliness of all the staff only adds to the feeling of well being. Only slight drawback is there is a little traffic noise from Sepulveda Blvd, so...

Dear Chris2421356707655,
Wow, "The best hotel in the South Bay" is quite a compliment, thank you! We like to think we're the best hotel in the South Bay too, but it's great to have that confirmed by you.
I especially appreciated your comments about the friendliness of our staff and how that contributed to your feeling of well being. This...
