Frommer's "Rooms are laid out for relaxation, not business, so travelers with work on their minds should stay elsewhere." Full review
Fodor's "In the 1920s it was a posh beach club catering to the city's elite; now the Casa del Mar is one of SoCal's most luxurious and pricey beachfront hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness "An imposing presence overlooking Santa Monica Beach, this 1926 beach club has been restored to its original grandeur."
Concierge "On the fourth floor is the Murad Spa—although massages can also be had in poolside cabanas—and the 75-seat, first-floor restaurant, Oceanfront, has spectacular sunset views."
Jetsetter "A mod take on a California beach club, with prime oceanfront views and a top-notch seafood restaurant."
Time Out "Located on the sand, close to Santa Monica's shops and restaurants, this elegant and architecturally significant hotel is a local landmark." Full review
Michelin Guide "An opulent beach club for well-to-do Angelenos in the 1920s, Casa del Mar was neglected after use as a military hotel in World War ll."
Star Service "Boasting a prime location directly on the beach opposite its enchanting Hamptons-inspired kin, Shutters on the Beach, this is Santa Monica's most luxurious beachfront hotel." Full review
Gayot "Santa Monica's landmark on the sand has become a pure jewel by the beach. Casa Del Mar has been lavishly restored to the opulent grandeur it exuded when it opened."
BlackBook "Chill out, Riviera style, in a chaise lounge, pretending it's all really quite a strain on your busy life."

Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Like Ron Burgundy, this elegant tower is staying classy." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The rooms seem an afterthought at New York hotelier Ian Schrager’s celebrity outpost. The Cuban-Asian eatery, pool deck, and hip Sky Bar provide stylish hobnobbing territory."
Travel + Leisure "This fashionable property from the Morgans Hotel Group has endured on West Hollywood’s Sunset Strip since 1996." Full review
Time Out "It still carries a certain amount of star quality, despite several recent changes, not least a redesign by Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz." Full review
Star Service "Rooms facing the front have Hollywood and Sunset Boulevard views, while the preferred units in back have pool views and city views." Full review
Gayot "Though not the fanciest hotel in town, this one is certainly among the hippest."
BlackBook "Rooms may have a little wear and tear, but still a party. Streamlined and modern, with clean colorful lines, baroque flourishes."

"This "chichi" West Hollywood star may not be "quite as hip as it used to be", but it's still "full of beautiful people" and remains "visually stunning", with "gorgeous" views of the city."
