I easily would come back to stay at the JW Le Merigot. First and foremost the hotel is well located, second it has great service, third it was so very comfortable... beautiful room, great beds, frette linens, fourth the spa was professional... We were able to get all over Santa Monica by walking... stopped in next door at Shutters for a drink, ate at The Lobster ( a little too popular for great service also ate at Roca Sushi, shopped etc. L.A. to me versus the rest of California, is rude, pretentious, lacking in roots and substance... yet the JW was a contrast. I think we would pick this oasis should we return.

This hotel is not worth the $280 and up rate if you are looking for class and value. The room was average and "stuffy" with no patio and no open window. Hotel has no Jacuzzi and a vey small pool. We were not able to get a chair as several people were competing for chair openings. Pool was dirty and dischelved (underwater light was dangling in the water). Fitness room was nice and had a great view. Staff serving drinks were nice but not the hotel bartender who "sized us up" and refused to serve us and a few other people drinks at the hotel bar. Granted we may have had too many at dinner but his attitude was terrible. We had to get the manager out to overrule the bartender. Stay at the Lowes..much better for the same money.

We did a girls weekend away here, and it was very nice. The staff was mostly very friendly and helpful. Our rooms were pretty big and clean and the bathroom super. The food at the restaurant was good, but over priced. The pool is small, and there is no drink or food service by the pool, that was a minus for us. But fantastic location, a block from the strand, and we had a fantastic time. The hotel is small which was great. The spa was nice, not out of this world, but nice. I would return.

I think that if you have the right expectation going in, this is a terrific hotel. It is not a beach resort, the beach is a bit of walk and unless you have a premium room, the views aren't much either. Their is a very nice small pool and lounge chair area, with a well stocked gym.

The service was very good, a few personal touches that made it very nice. The bed/pillows/sheets were great, as were the soaps and shampoo.

This is good for a business trip combined with some time on the beach, but definitely not for a family vacation.

We stayed at the Hotel for 3 nights and in most part it was great. The service was excellent way above average, but with all the rain are slideing door was leaking and there was a lot of water damage, are carpet and drapes were soaking wet. When we checked out we talked to the front desk and nothing was done about it. We thought they could of done somthing. The Spa was great and all the people working for the Hotel were very friendly and helpful. If I come back I think I might try a different place. But all in all I give the place a 8 out of 10.
