Amazing hotel with great location. Very clean and safe, with extremely friendly staff. I usually book 5 star hotels when traveling but due to the price of 5star hotels in the area, I went for Huntley and it didn’t disappoint. Makes me wonder why it’s not a 5 star hotel yet

We really enjoyed our stay! Safe neighborhood only a 10min Uber to universal studios. Very safe neighborhood. Clean property and accommodating. The only thing I notice was the wallpaper is starting to peel, but it’s also obvious they are actively working on updating the property. Breakfast is pastries only, but if you want more there are dozens of options within 2 blocks. Very much would stay there again.

The Georgian is a wonderful hotel.
Historic with lots of style.
Our suite overlooked the beach/ocean.
The sunsets were spectacular.
Also, the staff was fantastic.
FYI: Two brief negatives:
1 --- The common areas of the hotel were a bit worn … and seemingly, not cleaned on a daily basis.
2--- The elevator is old … and very slow.

I loved my quick trip to santa monica and greatly enjoyed the beauty of the shutters ocean view room with patio. Being able to see the ocean makes me feel closer to nature and i loved the decoration of this hotel including books to read and toys to play with in the room. We used a bike for an hour which was fun. The pool area is nice and very refreshing. Room service breakfast was very relaxing.

It’s a lovely hotel, there is a $55 a day resort fee, which you don’t learn about until check in. Great location, but it’s on a public beach, so public passes by all day and night, didn’t bother us, but I could see how some people would be annoyed by that.

The hotel was cute and the staff was very helpful.
They offer free coffee, tea and water all day, as well as wine and beer for a few hours in the evening. They also offer a free 3 mile shuttle until 8pm so you can enjoy dinner in downtown Santa Monica without having to worry about finding parking. The bakery in front of the hotel was delicious.
My husband and I have already talked about staying at this hotel again if we return to Santa Monica during our stay. Highly recommended.
