Had 2 rooms booked through perfect escapes. Nice rooms, good size with ocean views. Reception staff friendly and efficent , allowed us into our rooms early and as we booked through perfect escapes allowed us a late chekout on one of the rooms which was great as our flight out was not till much later that night. Beautiful restaurant with... more

Had a couple of nights to stay in Santa Monica recently. First night stayed at the Fairmont and out of curiosity stayed the second at the Huntley. I was a little suspect given the mixed reviews, but you could almost tell they were aware of the travel blogs, and were accommodating at the front desk. Rooms were perfect for business... more

Very impressed with this hotel, we stayed in room 1501. Room was as good as it gets with excellent views of Santa Monica Beach. Bed was really comfy, and the hotel is really close to the promenade and waking distance to the pier. Try Buco italian restaurant in 2nd street, the food is inexpensive and lots of it. The only... more

Front desk staff rude from the moment we walked in. The room was extremely small, and shower went from hot to cold every 20 seconds. The hotel was the only place I used my credit card and 2 days later I recieved a call from visa's fraud department someone on staff had stole the number and charged over $400 in... more

The room was advertised as Ocean View and if you leaned against the window you could see the ocean. very misleading. At the most it was a partial ocean view. the staff tried but they could only promise so much. It took three calls before a tooth brush was delivered to our room (about 1 hour). The walls were not... more

We booked at the Huntley for part of our honeymoon trip, while the website boasts "on the beach" the hotel definetly is not, you can see the beach out of your room window(s) depending on what room you get, but it's at least a three block walk to get there. The hotel was nice, very "posh", we are a middle... more

I booked the Huntley with great excitement - online the hotel looked fantastic for the Santa Monica weekend getaway my dad and I had planned. When we arrived the front staff were not overly friendly and, despite 2 calls in advance to ensure our room was the one we wanted, we ended up being offered a standard room with one... more

When we first got out of the car,we got immediate help with the valet parking and the luggage.We got in and the people at the front desk,looked very nice and were very polite.The room was very clean and had a nice view of the beach.The TV's were actually a bit bad with signal,but it really didn't matter because we were... more

The Huntley never disappoints. The rooms are lovely with great bathrooms and comfy beds with beautiful elegant linens. I love being able to walk to the beach or restaurants. The hotel has an exclusiveness about it that makes it feel private and quiet, although some of the rooms (those that are near the penthouse club) can be very noisy at... more
