"Shutters feels like a rambling seaside villa that's been plucked from Martha's Vineyard and dropped onto the boardwalk below Santa Monica Pier."
Fodor's
"The beachfront location and show-house decor make this one of SoCal's most popular luxury hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This delightful hotel right by the sands of Santa Monica takes the beach cottage to new heights."
Rough Guide

Travel + Leisure

Time Out
"Formerly a cool retreat for hot Hollywood stars and now a sister to Casa del Mar, Shutters has a relaxed but decidedly upscale style." Full review
Michelin Guide
"A beachside-cottage feel undergirds this property set on the sands of Santa Monica Bay. Relax by the pool or have a massage at the spa."
Star Service
"The beachfront setting and pleasurable poolside scene are notable, but the laudable meeting facilities and spring-heeled staff are ready for business at the drop of a sun visor." Full review

Avoid the rooms in the internally connected annex facing east as these could just as well be a separate entity called, "Shutters on the Parking Lot."
Gayot
"At this on-the-beach retreat, travelers appreciate the respite from L.A.'s high octane atmosphere."
BlackBook
"Plush pied-a-terre and oversized hot tubs for moneyed beach lovers. High-end cottage suites offer feast of Pacific views."

"It's no longer the center of the universe, but it's still a super-sexy spot that attracts, well, the super-sexy."

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."
