We stayed in the Cal Mar after a terrible night in a Loney Planet recommended "hotel". It was great value and the rooms were very spacious. I would highly recommend it to familys or groups of people. There were three of us, plenty of room and one of the only hotels on our trip which had three beds. It's only... more

We had a spacious suite, not fancy but very comfy, cute 50's tile kitchen & bath, fine shower. Not the Ritz, but great value and steps to the 3rd Ave Prom & Pier. Tell your snooty relatives you're "right behind the Fairmont." Services to the big hotel in back were noisy, like trash at 5AM. Liked being near street &... more
Thank you so very much pdxbabs 1 for posting your comments and appreciating the "value" of our property. We are delighted when we satisfy our guests' needs. Our guests are our number one priority. We are glad you enjoyed the "comfy" suites we have to offer and our close proximity to all the great venues in Santa Monica. We hope...
I agree with all the reviews as to the tired look - but don't be put off by this - the room spaces are huge. My main negatives are the fact that depending on where you are (we are in a pool facing room) things are very noisy. You can hear everyone else's business from the front room (including a... more

If you are looking for a place with character -- something that gives you an authentic taste of the '50s -- then you might like the Cal Mar. My husband and I had a wonderful stay there. I must admit I was a little worried when I glimpsed the outside of the place. The exterior is plain, and the casement... more
Greetings Travelhappy 919! Thank you so very much for posting your review regarding your experience inside the courtyard of our hotel. We appreciate so very much highlighting the details of your stay and your appreciation of our great staff. We take pride in the charm of our "50's look" and thank you for taking the time of providing your feedback....
I agree with many of the previous reviewers. The place definiely has a 60's feel to it. It's a bit worn out, but it is clean, spacious, well located, and the people that work there were very nice. We stayed four nights (two adults, two kids) at the end of a long west coast road trip. We could spread out... more

We needed a relaxing Labor Day weekend and we got it. The hotel was everything I hoped from the other reviews. Thankyou. The hotel is in an excellent location, within walking distance of the beach, the Promenade, restaurants and grocery, and is very reasonably priced for the area. All the rooms are suites (apartments) and there is covered parking. Our... more

I stayed at Cal Mar Hotel Suites for 2 nights at the end of the summer season on my way back to Melbourne Australia in a corner room. At first glance before I opened the door I sighed but then was blown away. The Hotel is situated one block up 5 minutes from the top end of the Santa Monica... more

We stayed for three nights at the Cal Mar. Staff are extremely friendly, it is safe and quiet, and old-days crisp and clean. All amenities are there, Santa Monica is around the corner, a lovely pool. All in all, a really very nice place to stay! more

Walking through the entrance of the Cal-Mar and into its light, airy courtyard seemed a bit like stepping back in time to the 1950s or 60s. The building and facilities showed their age, but this friendly, relaxed hotel is a great spot for laid-back travelers who want to experience something of the old Santa Monica atmosphere at a reasonable price.... more

We our proud of our great team that works to ensure that our guests are comfortable and have all the necessities available to them to enjoy...
Just spent 5 nights there, the staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. A few of the reviews on here lead me to believe that it's a bit dated but I didn't really see it myself. Very spacious, the maids did a great job every day. I can't believe that 1 or more of the reviewers have taken time to... more
