Cadillac Hotel - Venice

Parking was a joke, fees for internet that was not needed, carpet stained and very noisy hotel experience. The photos posted were far from correct very misleading on line stated that the rooms were just redone. Lots of homeless people hanging around the hotel.

The staff ( room attendants & desk staff) were very responsive to any questions or requests my wife & I made! Our room, on the 4th floor front corner overlooking the pedestrian/roller blade path, a huge beachfront, the bike path & the Santa Monica carousel & roller coaster ,a mile away, was outstanding! Our very clean room originally was (back-in-the-day) […] Charlie Chaplin's mistress's ! The roof top veranda provided views of California in 4 directions for miles & miles! We definitely will return on our next trip to California! The building needs new windows but other than that it was comfortable! Their parking lot is adjacent to the hotel @ $20,00 a day is reasonable especially for that area! The location is just perfect! Read more

Hotel was well kept and staff very helpful!

I wanted to be on the beach, and the hotel was just across the river of cement used by pedestrians, bikers, skaters, a great people-watching location. Venice is not Beverly Hills or the tourist parts of L.A., its quirky, its loud, its a hang out location. Yes its a older hotel, but I felt perfectly safe, the staff were very nice. No, they didn't carry […] my luggage, but they knew the area and could make good recommendations on where to go. You're literally walking distance to Santa Monica, the shops on Pacific Ave., places to drink/eat. If you don't want to be surrounded by people, don't come here, but if you want options and like to mingle, this is the place. Roof top viewing area was easy to get to, and the computer in the lobby was very convenient to print boarding pass. There is a $5 charge for internet and computer use, the hotel parking is $20 and the lot is small, only 18 slots and you have to back out unless there are empty spaces near you, but if you can snag one you're good for overnight as street parking is a challange.

Way outdated, over priced for the small rooms you get, carpets where stained everywhere. Felt like a motel 6 would not ever recommend anyone to come here & will not be back.

If you want to be in Venice beach, this is perfect! If you don't want to be around crowds all day and homeless people all night, stay in Santa Monica. This is a cool, funky, old place. Loved the rooftop hang at night. For the money, can't beat it!

Convenient location, nice staff, well maintained. Why the plastic covers on the mattress? I would take those off, unless they are on for sanitation reasons. The view of the beach was great, and one is close to restaurants and sites.

Cadillac Hotel is a funky fun place. The rooms are a bit small, but neat and clean. The lobby is fun, in a Venice sort of way. This is a perfect accommodation if you are looking for a beach location with close access to all that Venice, CA has to offer. We did not have a beach view, but those rooms appear to have amazing views. Check out the roof for […] a spectacular 360 degree view. We came for just an overnight in LA, but would stay here again for longer. It is not a luxury hotel, but it is definitely right for the area. Read more

Nothin terrible happened on out stay. The hotel description I very misleading. They say nothin of the way it smells, how run down it is or the fact that it is surrounded by homeless people.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Small, conveniently located hotel right on the Venice Beach. Bathroom recently refurbished, room itself moderate. Only ceiling fan for cooling, not enough. Friendly staff. Homeless can be a shock for first timers but normally nothing to worry about.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

if you're interested in the hardest bed in the world, homeless people sleeping outside the hotel and listening to the next rooms occupants then this is the place for you. Then this is the right hotel for you. Free Internet that costs $3 that you cant remove from your bill and one small bar of soap in the bathroom. Stay away. The homeless people sleeping […] on the beach seemed more comfortable than I was in my room Read more

Initially I booked one night at this hotel, then ended up using it as my base to explore other areas and stayed 6 nights! Gorgeous views, basic and clean rooms, very helpful staff, excellent location and an amazing cafe next door for breakfast! 10/10

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Front desk personnel were AWESOME! Hotel was clean and well kept. Standard rooms are very small and the hotel uses the minimalistic touch, no decorations or art on the walls, etc. If you are single or with friends and you are looking to enjoy the sights of Venice walk and the beach, this is the place for you. This hotel is VERY old so you can hear every […] slam of a door and people in other rooms. This wasn't terribly disturbing except for the family staying a couple of doors down whose kid came with them at 11:30 p.m. screaming in a fit and didn't stop for 30 min! This area of LA is not really a "little kid" friendly area. Rooftop was nice, watch the sun set. Overall happy with our stay. Read more

It was fine - it's a totally funky hotel right on Venice beach. While not for everyone, I really like the plac.e

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Simple and clean. Great value for location. Nice, helpful staff. We stayed two nights in Feb and the weather was 81 and 67.... perfect. A lot of homelessness but it was never an issue. I am asked for change more often in Boston on one walk than I was asked in Venice Beach the entire weekend.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Booked last minute and hotel exceeded my expectations. Hotel is right on the beach close to lots of nice pubs and restaurants. The room was large had big kitchen and bathroom. Easily walking distance to santa monica pier and lots of bike rental shops. We rented some bikes nearby and cruised up and down the beach and it was beautiful. Would definitely […] recommend great value for money staff were helpful we arrived early but they still let us check in. Our flight wasnt till later the next day let us leave luggage there and organised a transfer to the airport. Read more

Good room, front desk was very friendly and helpful. A little noisy outside occasionally, but not bad. The staff was friendly and quick to fill a request for a refrigerator. Right on boardwalk and next to a great boardwalk cafe.

room was bare no place to put anything closet doors did not work small shower toilet with wall in front very uncomfortable

Genuine Expedia guest review

Nice hotel right on the beach. All in all a good place but some simple cosmetic fixes would've made a big difference. Lack of any trash receptacle in the room was the first thing I noticed. Cold night in LA and steady breeze coming through gaps in window frame was an issue as well. That said, I'd come back.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

the hotel is pleasent, the only disturbing factor are the homeles who lie in front of the hotel but this is a fact where the responsibility lies with others, a little difficult to find at night for the first time also parking is not easy, but this is compensated by the staff who are very helpful, the location next to the beach is an important fact, […] if i was to come to the area again i would probably come there again.

Very tight quarters. Rooms are extremely small, and very minimal. Website said that rooms have refrigerators, this is not the case. Not is any ice available. Our radio/alarm/mp3 doc did not work, and was not replaced. Toiletries other than hand soap and shampoo not provided. The location is great, right on boardwalk but not a safe feeling/vibe at all. […] The bed is wrapped in plastic , I understand sanitary reasons, but I could not sleep on noisy uncomfortable plastic and this made for a rough night. I would definitely spend an extra $150 to stay in a more comfortable hotel next time. Read more

Hotel..fair. Room nasty and horrible shower.Staff ok.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was by far the best deal around. Given it's location and proximity to the boardwalk, it was an ideal location for us. Literally 30 yards to the beach from the front door. Yes, there are a lot of homeless nearby, but that is expected pretty much anywhere along the boardwalk regardless of where you go. BUT BEWARE, the parking is less than ideal. Hidden […] "fees" - You can park in the lot directly behind hotel for an additional $15/NIGHT or chance it on the metered spots 1-2 blocks away. There is a $3 internet charge as well added to each room. But restaurants nearby, ability to go to beach in 3 minutes or less, and affordability far outweigh any negatives of this hotel. Read more

Its not hotel its motel!!! The hotel was surrounded by homeless people. The walls and doors are thin, you can hear everything outside. parking fee is 15 $ and its not for 24 hours its just for night! Hotel is old and not in good condition for their prices! At photos it looks better than it is((((

Genuine Expedia guest review

Room was clean. The staff were very friendly. Location was right on the beach, so it was nice falling asleep to the crashing waves. That is if the couple next door aren't feeling amorous. Walls are thin. But I would stay there again and would heartily recommend the cadillac hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Cadillac Hotel was absolutely perfect! It was just what we needed for our first night stay in California. It was located right on the beach, and has an AMAZING rooftop view. Although there was not free parking, or breakfast, the pricing what perfect for its location.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Just say no! The hotel was surrounded by homeless people, at the door and in the dumpsters where the cars are parked. It gives a very unsafe feeling. The walls and doors are paper thin, you can hear when a cell phone rings next door. The staff blocked in my car so every time I wanted to leave I was delayed by at least 10 min. They also did not do a […] wakeup call which could have led to serious repercussions at the airport (thankfully, I woke up). There were hairs in the bed and the heat barely worked so the room and bathroom were very cold. Also, because of the street population and thin walls there is noise late into the night from the hallways and outside. Read more

The staff was helpful and accommodating. The room we stayed in (a queen) was small, but comfortable. You cant beat the location---it is within walking distance of many bars/nightlife and the beautiful beach. I would recommend this hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I'm in LA local, so don't often stay in hotels in town. I had a party to go to in Santa Monica, so thought it was a good opportunity to do a little staycation. The location is awesome, right off the Venice boardwalk with great access to food and attractions. The parking is $15 overnight, but that's not too bad for beachside. The room was clean and minimalist/modern. […] We loved the large shower! The walls were a bit thin (we could hear neighbors and people walking by) but it didn't bother us too much. We would definitely stay here again. Read more

I stayed here the night before the LA 13.1 half marathon. It's literally 2 minutes from the start line at Rose. The staff was amazingly friendly, the hotel's decor is new and modern and it'd located RIGHT on Venice Beach. My room did need some maintenance. The overhead light did not work and one outlet didn't work. The elevator is slow as all get out. […] The rooms have NO extra amenities. There's a coffee machine in the lobby. Internet is an extra $3 a day and everyone gets charged. Parking is limited, it's first come first served and it's $15 a day. I'd stay here again because of the location, price and staff. Read more

Nice hotel great location but..the walls were pretty thin. Bed was good. Heating not very effective. Toilet seat was too small for toilet. TV nice but channels half empty. Staff were friendly and helpful. Worth it. Not sure why I got a $46 charge after I left.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Dingy beach motel. Typical Venice Beach dump. Filthy sheets and linens, paper thin walls, tiny rooms. Spend an extra $50/night and stay in Santa Monica. Even the homeless guys outside the motel asked why we'd stay in such a dump. The website makes it look like a posh European style "hotel". It's not. They'll also throw a couple surprise daily charges […] at you that are not optional. Read more

A nice tiddy clean room, great warm staff,helpful staff, great cleaning crew. A great location for Venice or Santa Monica area. I could do without the afternoon drum circle!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This historic Venice hotel has had a lot of work done recently, and it shows. What a gem! The rooms are small, European-style, but super clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The free coffee in the lounge is good, and there are comic books instead of magazines to peruse! Don't let the Venice neighborhood scare you off. Yes, there are weirdos […] around, but that's what makes it Venice Beach! And it's totally safe. And walking distance to the ocean and a ton of bars and restaurants! Loved this place, definitely going back. Read more

Gross rooms. Dirty sheets and towels. Not as sketchy during the day

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This Hotel is deceiving. The Photos they post make it seem nicely remodeled but keep in mind it is a 1914 built building and is small and small bathrooms. BUT the worst part is it’s in the slums of Venice Beach where all the bums hang out, Cops patrolling constantly because Bums live outside the doors of the Hotel and surrounding areas. Not safe, not […] a place for family, kids, romance. All in all a terrible experience. $15 parking fee and $3 internet fee. Gross, wouldn't make this mistake. Read more
