Time Out "Palihouse arrives on the Westside, inside a historic 1920s Spanish Colonial building, steps from the Third Street Promenade." Full review
Star Service "Service is attentive, rooms are generally oversize, and there are a number of the units that sport kitchens and kitchenettes aimed at attracting well-paid long-stay guests." Full review
Gayot "Just a stroll from the Pacific and mere blocks from posh Montana Avenue and the lively Third Street Promenade."
BlackBook "In an opulent 1927 Moorish revival building, the new Palihouse Santa Monica has an even cozier feel than its Melrose counterpart."
Fodor's "Palihouse Santa Monica caters to design-minded world travelers craving spacious rooms and suites decked out in whimsical antiques." Full review
Afar Magazine "For a beachside pied-à-terre, Palihouse Santa Monica is surprisingly moody and dramatic, with nary a white linen slipcover or seashell detail in sight." Full review
Jetsetter "A new Santa Monica stay with vintage touches near shops, restaurants and the beach." Full review
Wallpaper "The historical 36-room landmark features classic examples of Moorish-influenced Mediterranean architecture." Full review

If you're a light sleeper, request a room away from the pool area, where the occasional nighttime pool party can get loud.
Concierge "These days, the Avalon also includes two newer buildings, and the property's style is a hip homage to mid-century-modern style."
DK Eyewitness "This cool Beverly Hills hot spot has intimately lit cabanas that fringe the curvaceous pool."
Rough Guide "A hipster-oriented hotel with cosy rooms and modern furnishings, along with in-room CD players, balconies and internet access (for a fee)."
Travel + Leisure "Hidden down a tree-lined street, this hotel’s three separate buildings are all decorated in quirky, Nixon-era style." Full review
Time Out "Mediterranean charm abounds at this posh hotel’s restaurant and bar, Oliverio." Full review
Star Service "Located at South Canon Drive, a half-mile south of Wilshire Boulevard, this hotel sits in a more down-to-earth section of Beverly Hills that contributes to its moderate rates." Full review
Gayot "In 1998, Kor Hotel Group took it over and did a complete renovation, creating a hip retro-fifties-style hotel."
BlackBook "Slamming pool scene goes off after work for Beverly Hills happy hours working on getting happier."
