Doubletree Guest Suites Santa Monica

First room we had smelled, so we had to change rooms. The second room they gave us was not very clean, and it had cigarette butts all over the patio. The parking was confusing. The staff seemed unhappy; especially the guy serving coffee at the Starbucks counter. The pool was okay, but the spa temp was set way too high. I had to lower the temp myself. The furniture needs cleaning, and the pool at hotel just seemed a bit run-down and poorly maintained. read more

Spacious room with separate living area with fold out couch which was great for the kids. Large bathroom with nice toiletries.

I travel all the time for business in much more expensive hotels located very close to this one. This hotel not only provided a better experience (no pool scene, no drunk beautiful people to wade through every night, no pricey internet that only half worked,) but also a better night sleep due to the quality of the linens and beds. All this, and a warm chocolate chip cookie every time my little boy asked (once a day was all I'd allow, but still! read more

Hotel met expectations. It is a nice hotel that I would recommend. As I mentioned my biggest complaint was the $18 per day fee for parking.

Great location and great amenities. Staff was ok not all that helpful in making recommendations but it was clean and nice overall. Great gym and pool facilities although they needed to replenish towels in the evening there were none left for the jacuzzi!

Great for my business trip. Plenty of room to work in my room, close to freeway, very quiet and close to ocean.

Enjoyed our one night stay there. Were plenty of room for a family of 4. Kids enjoyed pool and hot tub.

Not as close to the Pier as Holiday Inn but nice accomodations nevertheless. I had just stayed at the Doubletree in Santa Ana near the John Wayne airport and I could not hear the planes taking off or landing, yet at this hotel I could easily hear the street noise. If you're a light-sleeper, you'll want to bring ear plugs.
