My BFF & I stayed 4 nights and 5 days for vacation @ this hotel and have to say this is The Best Deal & location definately! We took the daily 3 minute walk to Santa Monica beach and 2 minute walk to the Promanade mall. The location is great for daily beach lovers and the nightlife is great within... more

My partner and I stayed at Hotel Carmel, Santa Monica, California for three nights in early September. It was our first stop on a four week trip to USA - it was booked through our local Flight Centre travel agent - obviously she hadn't stayed there. The location was great, close to shops, resteraunts, public transport and the beach. The... more

This hotel is probably the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. It was not clean, there was dust everywhere. The carpet in the first room they gave me was filled with holes and tears. The room was small, and there was no electric outlet close to the desk. The bed was comfortable though. The elevator was not working properly.... more

I can't fault the location. Close to the beach. Just around the corner from 3rd Street, Close to the night club but OMG, what a dive! We got the details from a paper at a tourist information centre and booked on the phone. Never again. The room was grotty. Dodgy stains on the carpet. No working AC. Breakfast was a... more

I stayed here 4 nights in July. The awesome location of this hotel is the most important aspect. In the centre of santa monica, one block from the promenade, 3 minutes walking from the pier and the beach! Inside the hotel is very basic, there is a valet parking service, for 8 $ a day your car is parked just... more

We stayed here for 5 nights at the start of our Californian fly-drive holiday and it was the most disappointing accommodation of our 3 week stay in the US. The first room we had was so noisy from the air-conditioning vents/pipes outside the window that we asked to be moved - only 2 a more dingy room which overlooked the... more

We stayed here for 2 nights at the end of a 3 week holiday on the west coast of Canada, Las Vegas and LA. The receptionist was very "off", telling us to "go away" for 90 minutes until the rooms were ready (we had to ask if we could leave our bags). When we got back to the hotel to... more

You can't get better value for money than this in our opinion. Without breaking the bank you can stay 100m for the beach and one street away from all the shops and restaurants. The rooms are big (this was our second visit to this hotel) and bed are comfortable and the shower is amazing. It is however noisey. The air-con... more

Location is good, close to beach and pedestrian street. Thats all my positive comments. Room was dirty, furnitures need some update. Breakfast was poor. The extra bed was a pure joke. Overpriced. more
