Fodor's "Inside the futuristic lobby are fountains, an indoor lake, an indoor track, and 12 glass elevators." Full review
Oyster Mid-Range
"Like downtown neighbor Wilshire Grand, this towering hotel offers many perks for the price: pool, shops, large fitness center -- only with better views." Full review
DK Eyewitness "With about 20 eateries, pool, fitness club, shops, and a full business center, the landmark Bonaventure has more facilities than most small towns."
Rough Guide "Modernist luxury hotel with five glass towers that resemble cocktail shakers, a six-storey atrium with a “lake”, and elegant cone-shaped rooms."
Time Out "In the bizarre absence of a hotel near the Los Angeles Convention Center, this five-tower, 35-story, 1,400-room monster does decent business." Full review
Star Service "This Westin comprises five silolike towers, each keyed to a specific color, all in a 35-story clover-leaf pattern." Full review
Gayot "The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites Review: You've seen the exterior and lobby of this hotel in many movies and TV shows in the past couple of decades."
BlackBook "If you've been Downtown you've seen these rounded black glass towers. More stores and restaurants than the Magic Kingdom."
Zagat4.0
"Seemingly a "city unto itself", this "classy" "legend" "in the heart of Downtown" offers "so many things to do", from an indoor jogging track and full-service spa to 19 restaurants and bars."
Travel + Leisure "Encompassing an entire city block in the business district, it's almost a city within a city." Full review

Concierge "Snuck in among the posh apartment buildings on the north end of Santa Monica's beachfront boulevard, the revamped Oceana looks and feels more like a home."
Fodor's "Generous-size suites, soundproofed windows, an open-air courtyard and pool, and ocean proximity add up to a delightful boutique hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "One of Santa Monica’s prettiest hotels, the Oceana has flirtatiously colorful decor reminiscent of the French Riviera. Many of the large suites have views of the ocean."
Condé Nast Traveler99.6
"Snuck in among the posh apartment buildings on the north end of Santa Monica’s beachfront boulevard, the revamped Oceana looks and feels more like a home." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Lime green, eggshell blue, and canary yellow compose the punchy palette at this retro-beach-style boutique hotel." Full review
Time Out "Across the street from the beach and a short walking distance from downtown Santa Barbara’s restaurant and bar scene, Hotel Oceana’s location cannot be beat." Full review
Star Service " In fact, this remains the best small hotel in Santa Monica." Full review
Gayot "A fresh, bright, airy and comfortable alternative to the massive, and generally impersonal corporate hotels, the Oceana is across the street from the bluffs overlooking Santa Monica beach."
BlackBook "Just steps from the beach and the 3rd Street Promenade. All suites—and really very sweet on service and private beauty."
Zagat4.3
""Gorgeous" rooms and suites (with Frette towels, Egyptian cotton linens and high-def TVs) in a "beautiful deco building" across from the beach in Santa Monica set this "lovely, intimate" find apart."
