Hotel Carmel

Great location, friendly staff. Bed wasn’t the most comfortable ( also made a lot of noise just repositioning). Direct Tv kept going out. It served its purpose for being close to beach and a place to lay your head down at night.

I liked to have been accommodated with the family room the room was nice, clean, spacious enough for us, beds were comfortable we really loved the hotel valet parking and the walking proximity to the beach and Santa monica pier without having to take our truck out of valet parking, since parking can be a headache in this area. Overall it was a great stay walking distance to restaurants and many stores we will definitely stay at Hotel Carmel again thank you.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Location excellent. Older hotel that has been kept up and maintain.

Very nice. Would stay there again.

Well placed hotel in Santa Monica, friendly staff

The hotel staff was very friendly. Rooms were clean and beds were very comfortable. Suites are quite roomy. Very close to the beach. Concerns: Water pressure is low. There was no hair conditioner in the shower, just “conditioning shampoo” which doesn’t cut the mustard for women with long hair. Finally, ther certificate of inspection in the elevator was nearly a year out of date. Given that the elevator was bumpy at best, this is a big concern.

Overall, a very cute, unique old school hotel. I loved the vibe & the people were nice. They just need to add a few extras like a mini fridge, microwave, & darkening curtains. The air conditioning unit was also extremely loud.

Great stay. Close to the pier and restaurants. We'll be back

One of the most cleanest hotels I have ever stayed in. The front reception were kind and courteous on all interactions. Nothing was a bother to them, information was provided in a kind, courteous fashion. One downfall would be no dining on site, however, 15% off the cafe next door! Excellent central site.

We chose this hotel on family members advise and we were not disappointed. This is truly a beautiful original hotel with very very close proximity to the beach, restaurants and shopping. We were riding a motor bike and the lovely concierge lady walked and guided us across the road into a secure carpark which was very very reasonably priced. Our room was comfortable and had been renovated. The bathroom was yet to be upgraded but there was nothing wrong with it other than being a little tired. The room was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The room service team were happy to give us extra water and coffee throughout our 5 day stay. All of the staff members were extremely friendly and helpful with nothing being too much trouble. We would definitely stay here again.
