We stayed at the Holiday INn Santa Monica while in town for a long weekend from Washington, DC. The hotel is not a 5 Star hotel in any sense but it is pretty much within walking distance to anything you need to see in Santa MOnica. It's also located directly off of the Santa Monica Freeway so getting to and... more

Opposite the Santa Monica pier this hotel has clean tidy rooms in a great location. On site valet parking is available in secure carpark. Located within 15 minutes drive of Los Angeles international airport. Rooms have bathroom with shower over bath, no mini bar - vending machine and ice machine on floors 3, 5 & 7. Free wifi access, quiet... more

I stayed there for 4 nights (over a weekend), and the hotel's best value is its location. it is just across the street from the pier and very close to the town itself. rooms are spacious and clean, room service is good - but i did not have the chance to try the food there. no comments as i do... more

The Holiday Inn, as other reviewers have pointed out, is in a great location for a visit to Santa Monica beach and pier and the 3rd St shopping area - all are within easy walking distance. We stayed just the one night prior to our flight home from LAX. We found the hotel to be clean and comfortable and staff... more

As with most of the reviews I'm going to have to echo the fact that this hotel is located in a great position for walking around Santa Monica. Very close to 3rd street promenade, which has great shopping and dining options, as well as Santa Monica pier. We stayed here for the last 3 days of our trip to CA... more

I was looking for a room that had a good location, clean, and value. this place had it all. Parking garage across the street will save you more than half. more

This Holiday Inn is in a great locaiton next to the Santa Monica Pier. I can't fault the rooms or the staff, but the parking at the hotel is very expensive, $24 a day. more

We have just come back from LA today having spent two nights on a stopover from NZ. The location of the hotel is great for the pier, promonade, and shopping. We had a room on the 6th floor 619 overlooking Colorado. Yes, it was noisey but with the air con on it wasn't so bad. My Inlaws had a room... more
