“Pretty good”

Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

You can't beat this hotel on location. It's right on the beach in view of the Santa Monica peer in the thick of night life and shopping. It's also new and therefor clean and everything works. It has a nice pool and hot tub that face the beach also. The bathroom however leaves a bit to be desired. The rooms... More

“wonderful surprise”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

We found ourselves unexpectedly in Santa Monica and saw "The Shore Hotel" was #1 on tripadvisor. When I called to make a reservation I was greeted with a friendly voice at the hotel's front desk, not a reservation center with no personality or knowledge of the area. Jim greetedus at the front desk giving us an upgrade rather then making... More

“6 Stars.”

Easy to see why this hotel is rated #1 on Trip Advisor... it was a truly unique experience and our stay in Los Angeles was amazing because of it. The staff could not have been nicer and more accommodating: Jim, Brandi, Joshua, Joel, and Stevie. A huge thank you from two mommas looking for a nice little get-away on Mother's... More

“Nice Hotel”

Reviewed 11 May 2013

We stayed at the Shore over Spring Break with our two children (ages 10 & 14) in March. The hotel had not booked our room correctly, when we arrived there was no room for a roll away bed. They upgraded us at no charge to a lovely larger room at the front corner of the building. The room was spacious... More

Stayed for 3 nights at the end of April with my wife.

We were absolutely impressed. Room cleanliness, service, amenities, free WiFi were all great. Rooms are modern and super... More
