Our New Favorite Hotel
What a wonderful stay at Shutters! Our ocean view room was exactly as pictured - beautifully decorated and oh so comfortable. And it may be silly to point out but the toiletries in the room (Diptych) were luxurious! The hotel staff was thoughtful and responsive - especially the valet squad - we were in and out everyday visiting family in the area - and it was so easy. Being right on the beach was such a bonus - We took advantage of the bicycles and loved exploring the beaches further south and north. Brunch at Coast was delicious. We absolutely loved everything!

Staff, from the front desk to bell/valet, and restaurant were extremely hospitable. Hotel just tired and there is an odd smell in the hallway going to the room. We were unable to get a reservation in the higher end restaurant during our stay which is a bummer as a hotel guest, but there are some great restaurants in the area. The cost of the room plus ready fee, tourism and other taxes was not a good value.

Stayed here 2 nights for our 35th Anniversary. Service was good, the rooms were clean and "beachy," but small - only one sink, cruise ship-sized shower, toilet area only had a louvered dood, so no privacy), our ocean view was great, but the balcony doors weren't very soundproof to the outside. Coast restaurant food was good, service was good, and (as expected) a bit pricey. But, the thing that bothered us the most was the location. There are many homeless people on the beach, around the Downtown shopping area, and on Ocean Ave. near the restaurants. They are sleeping in tents, on benches, and some were approaching tourists in threatening ways. Several times, we did not feel safe. Santa Monica Pier is dirty, old and run down. So, while the hotel was fairly nice, we would not return to this area.

I liked the atmosphere. Location, beach access but can get away from beach. Most staff outstanding. Didn't like our rooms were on a busy street, going up then down elevators to access. Parking at $75.00 per day. The first-day pool staff was not very attentive. Living room bar should open at 10:00 not 11:00

I never rate properties but I had to for this hotel. Service was possibly the best I’ve ever experienced. Staff anticipated your every need and everything was done swiftly and with a smile. Great beach location and great food. We stayed for my birthday weekend and I was given something special without even asking! Amazing

Well…the rooms are a bit small but when opening up the patio door, it fell off its track because the wood had deteriorated. The bed lights didn’t work properly, they kept flickering. Ordered room service and the food was cold. If it wasn’t for the view and the jacuzzi tub my anniversary weekend would have been a bust at this hotel. The staff were all very pleasant and friendly though!
