Literally fifty feet from the Santa Monica pier. This hotel is great for twenty-something’s because the vibe is energetic and party-like. Also great for families, but just know that, for some of the rooms at least, one of the shower walls is a window. So it’s cool if you want to watch your really hot girlfriend take a shower, you can do so from the comfort of your bed. Or if you want to shower while looking out into the ocean view, it’s cool. But if you are staying with your family or friends, the window does have an automatic shade that rolls down.

Very nice property, great location, staff and great beds. This is not a family friendly property. The a/c was subpar and struggled to keep the room cool. We had to open the balcony door every night to cool down. This made it hard to sleep with the noise below. The biggest issue we had was the lack of amenities like a refrigerator or an in-house convenience store. We ended up buying a hard sided cooler for drinks and snacks. Not ideal but it worked. The $60 nightly rate for parking was outrageous but we found local overnight parking with in walking distance that was half the price of the hotel.

The Shore Hotel in Santa Monica was a fantastic stay! The location is unbeatable—right across from the beach and near the pier. The rooms were modern, clean, and comfortable, with beautiful ocean views. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the vibe of the hotel was fresh and relaxing. Would definitely stay again!

Good and bad. The location was the reason for booking, it is outstanding. The convenience of a car rental desk within the property is very nice and the Sixt staff was friendly. Onsite food is very expensive but it was delicious and good room service. The negatives, the beds and pillows were terribly uncomfortable, sheets were pilling, and the one request I made in advanced to have rooms close to another party member was not met. I appreciated the friendly service from waiters, housekeepers and car rental staff and loved the location but the beds will prevent me from returning. I am a very frequent traveler and they were sadly bottom tier.
