    Overview of Hotel Shangri La Santa Monica - Santa Monica

    Art Deco glamour across the street from the Pacific Ocean

    Coastal location
    Hotel Shangri La Santa Monica offers ocean views from nearly every guestroom across from a tourist-packed stretch of the Pacific. You can tan while lying out on the nearby sandy beach or take the kids to ride Santa Monica Pier's iconic Ferris wheel.

    Sun-drenched diversions
    The pier is a 10-minute stroll down the block, offering diversions such as an old-fashioned carousel ride or concerts during the summer. Third Street Promenade, a shopper's delight with plenty of places to refuel on food and drink, is 2 minutes away on foot.

    Hello, gorgeous
    This Art Deco hotel gleams in old-fashioned Hollywood glamour and decor. A penthouse-level bar, Suite 700, and an onsite spa are among the celebrity-drawing services, in addition to poolside cocktails, a dining room overlooking the Pacific, and 24-hour room service.

    Ocean oasis
    Uniquely styled guestrooms include free WiFi and many feature ocean views. Opt for a suite, and you are treated to a gourmet, stainless-steel kitchen and deep soaking tub.

    Hotel Shangri La Santa Monica Beach Cities

    A short guide to Beach Cities

    Life is a never-ending summer in LA’s Beach Cities. Redondo Beach and surfing are forever intertwined. On weekends, many Angelinos head to Santa Monica to relax in the ocean and hang out at the Third Street Promenade. The Getty Center, an art-world powerhouse, is nestled in the nearby hills north of Brentwood. Santa Monica’s neighbor, Malibu, is home to The Getty Villa and its antiquities.

    Stayed here with some friends to celebrate my sister's bachelorette party. It was a really nice place, we loved how it was walking distance to all of the shops/restaurants on third street! The staff was very helpful, they were easy going about a later checkout time. I booked a one bedroom suite, but was upgraded upon arrival to a 2 bedroom suite which […] was AWESOME!! The view from the room was beautiful, but the furniture was a little outdated. However, the beds were all super cozy. I slept on the pull out sofa and it was very comfortable, surprisingly! We did not utilize the pool because the weather didn't permit, it was freezing cold (we went mid-April). But the pool area was very nice as well. Overall, I would stay again and recommend to others. ;) Read more

    Very good but wish they had the coffee makers in the room found in less expensive hotels but sadly not in the expensive. Nice to have a small, boutique like hotel with Deco like decorations, combination of old design and new.

    We stayed at this hotel for 1 night while on a trip to Southern California. We were celebrating my birthday and also my boyfriends... when we checked in we were upgraded to a suite and soon after entering a room, received a bottle of bubbly from the hotel! Very good and friendly service. The location of the hotel is perfect, a couple of blocks away […] from the Promenade and across the street from the beach. Loved the free glass of wine in the beautiful hotel bar. Everyone was great and the experience couldn't have been better. Read more

    Built in the 1930's, this quaint little hotel was really nice. Didn't like that it was like a motel where we had to enter our room from outside and it was cold and rainy. However, the amenities were nice; especially the huge bath tub. Stay out of the minibar$$$$! Book with a discount and you won't be disappointed!

    I have no idea why the reviews are bad...this was easily one of the better stays that we have experienced and the staff was the without any doubt very nice...they addressed us by name randomly during different areas like by the pool and asked if there was anything else they could do to make the stay even better The rooftop lounge is awesome , the pool […] and the fire pit is fun too... My only negative thing is that the shower water temperature would randomly go high then lower back down to the set temp...and that sucked when bathing a toddler...other than that this was a great place...in every other regard Read more

    Great Location, very nice staff and clean, but the hotel itself is too old for our taste. They've made an attempt to lightly remodel it, but the layers of paint, awkward layout of the bathroom, etc... just gave the room an old feel. The room also had a loud air conditioner/hvac system and when you'd turn the hot water on, it would rattle loudly. Overall, […] just not worth the money. Read more

    We chose an exceptionally good hotel. It is boutique style, with a beautiful pool area, wonderful restaurant and extremely pleasant and helpful front reception desk. They don't have a business office for computer use, but you don't need it with the degree of assistance that is provided for you. It is also an amazing, relatively quiet location, right […] at the beach. You will not want to leave to go home! Read more

The room was clean, stylish, and quiet. The roof-top lounge has some great cocktails, and there are some nice locals who stop by to chat. The pool area is nice but small, which […] means the chairs can fill up quickly. Definitely recommend! Read more

    Do not judge this hotel by its outside appearance. It looks like an art deco from Miami Beach. However, the inside of the hotel is great. The staff and service could not be more helpful. Our bed was comfortable and we love the ability to open the windows to get the cool ocean breeze. We did not get a chance to visit the roof top lounge but we heard […] it was great. The hotel is across the street from the beach and two blocks from the main shopping and dining area of Santa Monica. We will visit this hotel again!!! Read more

    My husband & I stayed here for the first two nights of our honeymoon before leaving on our cruise to Hawaii and we absolutely LOVED it! The location was perfect - directly across from the bridge to the beach and just minutes from the promenade & shopping. Guest services was very attentive, welcoming & polite. They upgraded us to an Oceanview Deluxe […] Suite & sent us chocolate covered strawberries too! We LOVED the room! The bathroom/tub was HUGE & had a glass/see-thru wall into the bedroom which we thought was pretty neat. Even the valet guys were extrememly sweet & helpful. Great boutique hotel!

    This hotel has a superb location and good views. It is a recently refurbished art-deco style property from the 1930s. Overall it was very pleasant, but some details were a bit off-putting. The room interiors are nice (but small). The window frames were in terrible shape (looked like they had not been replaced in the remodel). The hardwood floors looked […] nice but when the person upstairs is walking around in high heels at 6 a.m., it's not so great. The water in the shower was never quite hot enough. The restaurant and bar downstairs was stylish, the menu was creative (example: crab cake po'boy sandwich) and food well presented. Overall, the hotel was presentable and good value for this area, especially for waterfront property. Read more

    This hotel is in a great location for food, the beach and shopping - but not for a peaceful night's sleep. The windows were relatively soundproof, but we could still hear quite a bit of noise - especially at night. The tiled hallway floors allowed a lot of echoing and we could hear guests above, next door and in the hallways. That aspect aside... The […] room service was superb! The quality of food and selection we had was incredible! The food tasted great, the service was super-hero quick, and the portions were more than sufficient. Our room had a view of the beach, and the pier was a short walk away. The mall and 3rd Street Promenade were also nearby. Read more

    I had to wait almost 3 hours in the afternoon to check in. I was told the wait would be short, but was left hanging out in the dining room. Only after I raised a fuss did the staff view this as a serious issue. Once I did, they did get a room and offered me wine, cookies and a free meal, but their system seems to need work still. Also, I left a valuable […] object in the room when I checked out. I called the hotel from the airport and was promised an immidiate return call, which also never came. When I called back, security said nothing was found in the room Read more

    We try to stay at the Shangri La whenever we are in Santa Monica. Great views of the ocean and pier, and we can walk to restaurants and shopping. The hotel has a wonderful ambiance, and the sunset views from the rooftop bar are spectacular.
