This hotel was unique, convenient, and beautiful. The staff was great, our room was beautiful. You are almost directly across from the pier, and shopping is just two blocks away. There is also a lot of restaurants to choose from withing two blocks.

Shore hotel is a very clean, high end property which is located right in front of the beach with a great view; I arrived by car and parking is very expensive, should be validated by the hotel or at least with a discount : not all visitors arrive by plane and take an uber or taxi to the hotel. I stayed on the lower level of the hotel where some construction was going on, and noise started around 8am which disturbed our rest; Overall experience was very good, just wish we knew of the construction beforehand.

Hotel was very nice, well kept. I would have given more stars but they were doing some heavy construction (all very necessary updates) while we were there and it was kind of a bummer. Messy and loud. The staff was over the top friendly which made up for the inconvenience of the construction. The location of this hotel couldn’t be more perfect if you want the full Santa Monica experience, I’d definitely stay here again!! Over all it was pretty great, totally understand how hard it is to update and do construction while operating, the staff did a great job making us feel special. 10/10 for location and view!

We loved this hotel!!!! It was a last minute booking and we checked in about an hour after we reserved it. They greeted us with champagne, valet parking, cucumber infused water, and the friendliest staff ever. The concierge Adriano, whom we met the next morning was a delight! Knowledgeable of the area and amenities, helpful, friendly and a standout among our other concierge experiences. We will be returning in the spring to Santa Monica and wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else. New restaurant on premises was very good and the recommendations for other eateries in the area were all excellent. Thank you Shore Hotel and staff for a wonderful getaway!

Great location close to all the action in Santa Monica. One interaction with a staff member named Ramon was disappointing. I was called down to reception after 830 at night on the third night of our stay as they wanted to put a further lean on my card which had been declined. I showed him some online articles which clearly showed that our internet banking had been offline for 4 days and therefore could not transfer funds. He showed no empathy for the stress this would cause a family travelling with young children and was not apologetic for making us come down to reception in the evening. He told me more money would need to be taken from the card if I intended for I eat at the hotel again. Therefore we did not eat at the hotel again and chose to eat at nearby restaurants. This situation could have been handled with empathy and understanding. I have also never stayed at another hotel that requires guests to be $50 ahead on their card and takes further money off your card throughout the stay at random times. They seem very concerned that guests will leave without paying their bill to the determine of providing friendly service.

My issue is that this does not feel like a 4 star hotel. This is a 2 star in a good location, albeit with a good hospitality playbook for the staff. The rooms are small and oddly designed. (WHY a glass wall in the bathroom? WHY? WHY two phones to clutter up scarce counter space? WHY a locked minibar permanently installed but a fridge that gets brought in only on demand??) The beds/pillows are terrible. Again, 2 star quality. The hotel was also under construction, making it unpleasant. The front desk staff has been trained in helpfulness, undeniably - however, as i was checking in, both clerks on duty were so engaged in explaining to one guest where she could find dinner that neither of them greeted me for several minutes. Also, hospitality clearly has limits - when we tried to sit down at the outdoor eating space to have our Starbucks coffee, we were immediately told to leave (even though the place was empty). It's a great location. But that alone is not worth the money. We could have stayed at a far more comfortable chain (Hyatt, Hilton) for the same (or slightly lower) cost. A friendly desk staff does not make up for a lumpy bed.
