Frommer's "Hidden away just a stone's throw from the Getty Center and busy I-405... The overall ambience is very relaxing." Full review
Concierge "The leafy hillside property is peaceful enough to make you forget that the hotel's actually just a stone's throw from the massive 405 Freeway."
Fodor's "On seven landscaped acres near the Getty Center, the Luxe feels like a secluded country club—but it's also next to the I–405 for easy freeway access." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A lovely property with lush landscaping, this is conveniently located right next to Freeway 405. Spacious rooms in soothing colors feature extras such as DSL and fax machines."
Gayot "Located just west of the 405, this hotel is close to the Getty Center, Beverly Hills and Westside parks and beaches."
Time Out "A true urban retreat, the Luxe is situated on seven acres of lush grounds, replete with a heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, spa, on-site restaurant, and generously proportioned guest rooms." Full review
Jetsetter "Modern belle of Bel Air with tennis courts, heated pool, spa and seasonal Cali fare." Full review
Star Service " This is an excellent hotel, a posh yet unassuming place, but the din of near-constant traffic at the pool can be grating." Full review

And the in-house eatery, On Sunset Restaurant, dishes out California cuisine with a hint of French flair (don't miss the jazz brunch on Sundays).
Michelin Guide "If anything the rooms are even more stylish than the public spaces, and they’re long on comfort as well. The look is sleek and contemporary, the interiors clearly designed rather than just decorated" Full review

Avoid only summer, when morning fog can hang over the coast and the boardwalk gets crowded.

Oyster4.0
"A design-conscious, thoroughly un-beachy 18-floor hotel in the center of a beachside community with an exceptional restaurant." Full review
Time Out "There's something of the W chain about this operation, located in the building that previously housed a branch of the unremarkable Radisson chain." Full review
Star Service "With that said, travelers here may have to work to get to the action, but they are still within strolling distance of the pier, beach, shopping and entertainment." Full review
Gayot "This intimate residential tower is set amidst quaint seaside apartment buildings and cottages just blocks from the sea cliffs above the Santa Monica Beach and Pier."
BlackBook "Ocean chic is what it's all about at this it hotel on the shores of tawny Santa Monica. Seaside retreat, but with a touch of cool."

Jetsetter "The genius of designer Thomas Schoos, who headed an $18 million renovation in 2005, brought this hotel into the realm of the uniquely hip." Full review
