Hotels near Swingers, Santa Monica

The service was incredibly thoughtful. I'd left an English book open in my room, read a few pages, and then rushed out to explore. When I returned to the hotel, I found a new bookmark with a message: 'Open your book and enter a world of tranquility. The Pacific awaits your new chapter.' The sea, the beach, the sun, a good book – everything for a perfect holiday comes together right here.

Breakfast is average, simple cold juice, fruit, ham slices, bread, potato chips, etc. However, drinks, drinks and snacks are free from the afternoon to the evening of 8 years. It is very warm.

The room was big but located in the back of the building with direct access from the street. Felt a little unsafe. The hotel also charged me twice. The first card was declined but for some unexplained reason partial payment was still taken. Sorted it out in the end but it took a couple of hours explaining to my bank and the hotel manager to get it corrected.

The room is quite big, a bit old, but the quality is very good. The big bed and sofa bed are very comfortable. The elevator is a bit slow because there are so many people. The two elevators are very small and you have to wait for a long time. There is no swimming pool. There is a free private driver who can pick up and drop off within a three-mile radius of the hotel. Bicycles are free to borrow. Parking is valet parking service. Self parking is not allowed.

The location is excellent, it's a beautiful, modern, and new hotel. However, upon check-in, there was no water in the room, even though bottled water was mentioned in the room description. You have to go to the water cooler on the third floor to get some. At breakfast, I came in from the room side, and all the tables were free; I was the only one there. A waitress approached me and told me to get in line. There was a group of 12 people who came for brunch and weren't staying at the hotel; they were preparing a table for them. I waited about 7 minutes for them to be seated before I could be seated. They didn't even give me a menu; I waited another 8 minutes and then just grabbed one myself. When I ordered avocado toast, I asked three times to add an egg, but it came without it, and they had to remake it. The hotel is wonderful, but the restaurant is not.

The location of the hotel is fantastic—just a 5-minute walk to the Santa Monica Pier and 2 minutes to the beach. There's also a Starbucks only 5 minutes away. The shared balcony offers a stunning view of the beach and the promenade, which was one of the highlights of our stay. The building itself is two stories, and while the rooms were clean, they were quite small. The beds were also small, despite the description stating that the room could accommodate up to four people and that the bed was double-sized. Unfortunately, the bed was too small, and one of us had to sleep on the floor. The price was very high, but I assume that’s because of the prime location. Despite these drawbacks, it’s worth staying here for the convenience and cleanliness. The receptionist was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early at 12:30 PM, even though check-in officially started at 3:00 PM, which we really appreciated.

Not bad, and fairly clean. Check-in is done in a small room on the right hand side of the main entrance. Usually no one is there. Knock on the small window.

The location is just a few minutes' walk from the beach, offering both a peaceful and quiet environment. It's also conveniently located a 10-15 minute walk from the pier and shopping center. The room was sunny, well-equipped, and very clean and refreshing.

The room is nice but the air conditioning is old. It once stopped. After the staff fixed it, it stopped again and we need to use the fan mode instead.

We loved everything about this hotel, especially Manuel's charming manner, you can tell he loves his job, we only have good words for him. A special hug to Manuel and the entire hotel team. Melanie and Daniel (Spain, Malaga)
