I just stayed at the fabulous JW Marriott Santa Monica and was thoroughly impressed with EVERYTHING! The customer service was outstanding and I immediately felt at home. The rooms were huge with amazing views and location of the hotel couldn't be better. It will be impossible for any other hotel to live up to the Le Merigot excellence! I can't... More

You can have a nice hotel but if you don't have friendly, caring and enthusiastic staff you won't get good ratings here. Staff makes the difference. These people get it and do it very well. We enjoyed our visit immensely due to the attentive and friendly staff. The hotel itself is small, well decorated and very clean. Good job le... More

We wanted to stay at the Santa Monica beach hence we paid alittle more than our budget to stay in this hotel. Location was as near to the beach and pier as it gets. The rooms lives up the Marriott reputation. But not the Service. The sercuity box at our room is not pin based but key based which was... More

I traveled here for work recently and stayed here because I am fairly loyal to Marriott. I travel a ton and stay at hotels almost every week 2-3 nights per week. I was checked into an Ocean View room that turned out to be eclipsed ocean view. There is another building between this hotel and the ocean so all the... More

We enjoyed three nights at this hotel. We were upgraded to a junior suite and had a view of the water which was lovely. The only negative about room 428 is that it is next to some sore of housekeeping room. Every morning at around 8am someone would push something against the wall so hard that our headboard would shake.... More

We were celebrating our anniversary in Santa Monica as part of a road trip through California visiting from Vancouver, BC. The location of the hotel is centrally located and within easy walking distance of all the major attractions. Le Merigot's attention to detail from check in to check out, is outstanding,the team, from valet service, to check-in, to housekeeping, etc.... More

We weren't able to snag one of the rooms with a view of the water or the pier, not unless you leaned over the balcony at a dangerous angle (but at least we had a balcony). The room was nicely appointed although we had to ask for our air conditioning unit to be fixed since it did not work on... More

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the JW Marriott in Santa Monica on May 19, 2013! We are Platinum Marriott Rewards and were upgraded to a Junior Suite at check in. In addition to the welcome points, we enjoyed a comp ice cream, berries and wine treat in our room later that night. Spacious room with all... More

We stayed 4 nights here for our anniversary. Was able to book the room with Marriott Rewards points, and because we came at a less-busy time of year, were happily upgraded to large room with a huge balcony overlooking the the Pier and beach. I will start out by saying that you should be prepared to pay $35/nt for valet... More
