Just spent the weekend there and I can't rave enough about this property. Every single aspect of the hotel and experience is top notch. The front desk staff were really friendly and even though we arrived early at noon and check in wasn't till 4 within 45 minutes she had our room ready! The outdoor pool area is just stunning... More

The rooms here don't measure up to the online photos. The carpet, sheer drapes, and upholstery looks more worn than modern, and the walls are paper thin. I spent my first morning listening to every word of my neighbor's phone conversation and his constant coughing and nose blowing. If you do reserve here, be sure to call and ensure that... More

My husband and I have travelled the world and stayed at some of the best hotels. We went to the Loews SM for our 10th wedding anniversary. The front desk staff were entirely unfriendly, uninterested and business-like. The first room they put us in was a dark basement level room, with the adjacent apartment/condo's junk-filled private garages open and facing... More

I have stayed in many nice and fancy hotels, and this one ranks right up there with them all. The room was great and the facilities for swimming, dining and exercise are exactly as one would want. We were initially scheduled for a room with two double beds, but after asking for one king sized bed, the front desk person... More

I have stayed at Loews a few times and each has been very special. The first time with 5 grandchildren visiting from Australia. They were enthralled and the personal attention and care of the staff highlighted their stay. We took various coach tours and Loews provided lunch boxes for the journeys, filled with such a suitable selection of foods. The... More

Location is somehow great although not directly on the Santa Monica beach. I would say that for the price, there are certainly others hotel with more personnality and intimacy. The lobby is huge but it is also where it all happens. Otherwise you have the restaurant and the pool outside. Rooms are big enough and well equiped. Downtown accessible by... More

Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel is an excellent choice if you want to spend time in the Santa Monica area. The beach is just steps away and the ocean is visible from some of the rooms. The Santa Monica Pier is less than 2 blocks away. It's amusement park isn't great, but it adds beautiful lights to the evening sky... More

our room wasn t ready until 5.37 in the afternoon which was terrible after a long haul flight and it ruined the first day completely our little boy was anxious to taste an all american burger (his gavourite meal) so he ask the waiter in the breakfast if he could have a burger what in my opinion was cute made...

I have very mixed feelings about this hotel. We stayed here because both the Viceroy and the Fairmont were sold out and we were looking to stay in Santa Monica (rather than West Hollywood at the excellent Sunset Marquis). On the one hand, the price is reasonable considering the wildly wonderful beach location. On the other, the service leaves quite... More
