The Pierside Santa Monica

Restaurant is now under renovation, so it is not available. Across the street, there is a McDonald's which opens early in the morning. There are many homeless people around that. Gym is also under renovation. Pool - the same.

Our room was exceptionally clean and newly remodeled. Great view and the staff was very helpful. My son loved that they gave us a free water bottle to keep as a momentum of our stay. The location was amazing - easy walk to the pier, shopping and restaurants. The only disappointment was that the hotel was still under renovation. It would have been nice to have that disclosed at time of booking. A little hard to swallow to pay for resort fees and not have the ability to enjoy the facilities. The staff was very nice - we had problems with our room key - computer error - and the young lady who helped us was patient and kind. The hotel is at the base of the Santa Monica Pier and the 2nd Street Promenade - just 1 block from both and easy walking distance to everything else. Not having to hunt or pay extra for parking, taxi or Uber was a great convenience. If another occasion brings us to the area, I would definitely stay again. - PS we arrived earlier than expected and they allowed us to check in before allocated time. Very much appreciated.

Comfortably modern rooms which we loved. The staff are very accomodating. The hotel offers filtered water which is very good. Best location to visit Sta Monica Pier, Venice and the beach. Very near to the shops, resto and the metro. Just in front of Mc Donalds if you like an easy breakfast. The bike center is just right the corner. They store lugagges if you want to still go around the town after check out which we really appreciated.

Walking distance to the Santa Monica Pier. Many evening places to eat and drink. One breakfast spot across the street. Modern furniture in a creative space. May need earplugs for the freeway noise, but that is LA. Complimentary wine on arrival was very nice. Friendly staff. Nice soaps and shampoos. Easy to use shower.

Great Location, friendly staff, & very clean. The location is beyond amazing. The beach is literally as close as can get. Once the pool, restaurant, and bar are in place, this will be the absolute perfect spot.
