Rough Guide "Excellent choice for inland Santa Monica with Craftsman-styled decor and boutique rooms that have internet access and include continental breakfast."
Fodor's "An air of tranquillity pervades the four-story Ambrose, which blends right into its mostly residential Santa Monica neighborhood." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The property features four floors, 77 guest rooms and is a short drive to the beach and Third Street Promenade shopping corridor." Full review
Time Out "This boutique avoids the stereotypical super-sunny decor prevalent in so many Santa Monica hotels, preferring a cultured mixture of sturdy Craftsman tradition and Asian chic." Full review
Star Service "Located on the east side of Santa Monica at Arizona Avenue, in a quiet neighborhood just south of Wilshire Boulevard, this notable LEED Silver-certified property puts a stylish sheen on green design." Full review
Gayot "The Ambrose fuses twentieth-century Craftsman design with an Asian influence, steering away from the too cool and edgy feel of a lot of hip urban properties."
Zagat4.2
""Luxurious" yet "eco-friendly", this Santa Monica boutique "in a quiet neighborhood" may not be on the beach, but admirers "love" its Asian accents and "oh-so-comfy" ambiance."
Lonely Planet "This sustainable boutique hotel beautifully blends Craftsman and Asian aesthetics and goes the extra mile when it comes to being green." Full review
