The Proper Hotel Santa Monica is a beautiful and very recent property, with a fantastic rooftop area featuring a pool and several restaurants. The hotel has a stylish, lively atmosphere and attracts a young, festive clientele. The room was beautiful and very well equipped, with a minibar, coffee machine, bathrobes, slippers, and high-quality Aesop toiletries. The only minor downside was the view from the room, but this is really just a small detail. The valet service was very efficient, and the hotel is ideally located in Santa Monica, making it easy to explore the area. Overall, a beautiful, modern, and well-located hotel with excellent facilities and a vibrant atmosphere.

The parking and food at the hotel were astronomical. Severe enough to make me not stay there again. Two meals (dinner for 2 and break for 3) in the hotel and 5 nights of parking was $1000. Hotel was nice. Walkable to the beach and promenade if inclined.

Great stay! Property itself is gorgeous and great place to hangout and spend time in, but there are a ton of great restaurants and bars in the 10-12 block radius of the hotel as well. The rooftop pool and restaurant is a great feature specially in the summer. I’m I love with this place big time

10/10 Exceptional

Well located hotel perfectly positioned 10 mins walk to Santa Monica beach and pier, shopping area and restaurants. The hotel is beautifully designed and its decor is trendy, with lots of chilled public spaces which shout chillax in every area. Top interior design shines through. The staff at the main desk were helpful and lovely, as were the restaurant team. Room was beatifully appointed. Airy and spacious with lovely modern bathroom, stocked fridge, plenty of device charging (including USB-C…thank you!), huge TV and welcoming decor. The gym is excellent - even with a reformer Pilates machine and Zwift static bike. Final shout to the parking valet team, always quick and helpful. We won’t visit often as we’re UK based, however we have already booked again for one night before we head to Coachella Festival next April.

This was our third visit to the Santa Monica Proper and we look forward to returning. The building and furnishings are beautiful and the rooms are welcoming and comfortable. We love the food at the roof top restaurant and enjoy lounging in the beautiful setting around the pool. The staff is great- helpful and accomodating. We also love the location- walking distance to charming cafes and the beach.
