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."

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

Gayot

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
