I am currently in a wheelchair and the staff was above and beyond accommodating to me. I felt very taken care of. Room service was quick and great. I would highly suggest this hotel especially for customer service. Great and walkable. The homeless at night and on the corner can be loud and too much but they make up for that in other areas.

Incredible, Luxury & Relaxing Stay

I really enjoyed my stay at the Santa Monica Proper Hotel. I stayed as part of a solo birthday trip, and everything was perfect from the welcoming check-in, attentive pool experience, and food options to the central but quiet location and above and beyond spa amenities. 10/10 would highly recommend.
