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."

"This 569-room Beverly Hills hotel, the site of the Golden Globes, excels at affordable luxury." Full review
Rough Guide "This prominent, geometric white hotel at the corner of Wilshire and Santa Monica boulevards has a pool and gym, plus in-room plasma TVs, boutique decor and balconies."
Time Out "Thanks to a remodel in 2007-2008 the rather tired decor has been replaced by a look that's both comfortable and handsome, classic but not wedged in the past." Full review
Star Service "One-half mile west of Rodeo Drive, this vast, nearly 9-acre hotel remains the largest, most commercial hotel in 90210 and one that leans heavily on conventions, tour groups and splashy media events." Full review
Gayot "All of the lovely rooms come with high-speed Internet access, and most boast lavish bathrooms and terraces with city views."
BlackBook "Cabana buffs chill by the pool awaiting more cooling mist and hairless boys. Health buffs get treadmills delivered to their rooms--those in the Wiltshire Tower are chicest."
