This isn't your usual hotel with lots of floors and crowded lobby. You'll feel right at home in this updated retro feeling hotel. Beautiful soft linens, robes and comfortable rooms. It has the same inviting environment that I have experienced at the Larkspur in Renton, WA. more

Despite an odd location at the intersection of two quite busy roads, this is a nice boutique hotel which seems to have been renovated fairly recently. The rooms are large and well appointed with free wireless, nice decor and both a desk and separate table and chairs. I was totally unaware of the hotel's busy location when inside, but that... more

We really enjoyed our stay at the Belamar in Manhattan Beach. Our room was beautiful, roomy and very clean. The furnishings and decor were very nice. The courtyard at the hotel is very pretty - nice flowers and great place to sit and relax. The only drawback was that the pool closed at 10, as we were not able to... more

The lobby of the Belamar was welcoming, light and spacious. It felt like it was a beach hotel. The hotel is actually about 1 mile from the beach, by a pleasant pathway. The valet/bellman staff were helpful and pleasant. One of them helped me find the parking brake release on my rental car. The next day he also pointed out... more

I stayed 3 nights at this hotel for business in April, 2009. It was described to me as a boutique hotel experience as oppossed to the big hotel type experience.

I was there for three nights and would highly recommend staying at this hotel; everything was fantastic. I'd like to mention that the room and linens smelled "fresh" like clothes smell when they are dried outdoors. Quiet stay, friendly hotel personnel. Manhattan Beach is 1 mile away. You can walk to it on sidewalks through a nice neighborhood. They also... more

Booked hotel through third-party website. Very pleased with value received and facilities provided. The free valet service saves $19 a day that are charged at other area hotels. Check in was quick and efficient as was baggage handling to room. Free wireless was available( not used) and free internet / printer use (first floor) to print out boarding passes was... more

I loved my stay at the Belamar. The staff went out of their way to take care of me and my family. The restaurant was awesome. The skirt steak is to die for and the bread pudding out of this world. Beds super comfy and just a great place. The Belamar Rocks! more

We stayed for a week at the Belamar after cancelling our booking at the Marriot in Torrance . The Belamar is small enough so the staff all know who you are and greet you by your first name , we loved the cookies at the front desk in the afternoons and the FREE valet parking which after paying $17 a... more
