A great find in Santa Monica. We stayed for just one night and wish we could have stayed longer. The feel of the place is just wonderful, very cosy and welcoming. There is a large living room with comfy chairs and sofas where you can just hang all day if you want too. Tea, coffee and cold beverages are available all day long, as well as home baked cookies and cakes. In the late afternoon drinks and snacks are served. The breakfast is heavenly. The high price for the room seems a lot more reasonable when you consider that all this is included in the rate.

I absolutely recommend The Channel Road in for your next stay in Santa Monica, Ca. It's so beautiful and the staff is so gracious! I was in Santa Monica for a conference at another hotel and really enjoyed coming back to the peace and quiet each evening following a busy day of meetings. I would also wake each morning to the smell of the delicious baking going on in the kitchen each day. My room was just beautiful and my bed couldn't have been more comfortable. There are nooks all around the Bed and Breakfast where one can sit and enjoy a cup of tea, sit and read or visit with others if one chooses. I felt totally at peace and without stress while I was staying here. I am already in the process of making plans to return. I loved it and I hope you will too!

  • Liked — the beauty, comfort and peacefulness
  • Disliked — I can't think of anything that I didn't like or would change.

From our La Jolla home in San Diego, we often take short road trips to LA for fun, relaxation & shopping. The Channel Road Inn made our most recent trip the best ever. From the warm and beautifully decorated rooms and public areas to the most accomodating staff, The Chanel Road Inn is "simply the best."

We've been to the Channel Road Inn three times. Once when it was just my husband and myself. The last two times have been with our son who is now almost three. The Inn makes those wanting a romantic getaway feel comfortable and also makes those of us with children feel welcome...not too many places do that for B&Bs.

There are so many beautiful rooms to choose from. The food served for breakfast and at cocktail hour is always fresh and quite tasty - loved their blueberry french toast!

You're walking distance from the beach and can borrow some bicycles for a nice ride. You are minutes away (via car) from the 3rd Street Promenade where shops and yummy restaurants abound.

The Channel Road Inn is ideal for anyone who wants to go to LA but feel you're somewhere far away. You can still go to a museu, the theatre or a nice restaurant and be there in 20 minutes while staying in a quiet and secluded part of Santa Monica.

I highly recommend visiting. Book early since the most desired rooms book fast.

Cheers!

  • Liked — We had a private entrance so having a toddler worked out great. Didn't worry about bothering any other guests.
  • Disliked — The front door was a little sticky and hard to open :)
