    This hotel is conveniently located in Santa Monica, just a short walk from the beach and close to plenty of restaurants, cafes and bars. It is nowewhere as nice as other Le Meridiens that I have stayed at; the rooms are tired, the facilities are relatively basic and the pool area is underwhelming... Not great value for what you're paying...

On the not so great side, when we checked in and got into our room, it was surprisingly NOT like the photo of the premium room I had booked, specifically having a much smaller balcony and window/door open views... We had an 8-day reservation and despite requests, the manager did nothing to resolve this...

    ...I had called several weeks in advance and requested our usual room (we have been visiting and staying at this hotel for nearly 17 years). At check-in (9 p.m., after a 2+ hour flight and 50 minute drive), we were told that another guest was in our room... At some point during the conversation I was handed over to the Front Desk assistant manager who explained that there was no one in our room, but that the hotel had a roof leak that took the room out of the service... Meantime, we're still looking to find a room... No to the ADA room, no to the 2 queens room (romantic weekend!... We finally we presented with a King Room with a partial ocean view... We accepted (after debating departing and staying at any other beach hotel), and 45 minutes after arriving were off to our room... But truthfully, this stay was just a huge disappointment...

    ...Expensive hotel for creepy experience !!! First of all on the checking : I booked a king size room but the only king size room they have were located near to the pool ( Cabanon) which stairs ( not easy when you ankle is broken) and nobody from the hotel to help you to carry your lugguage... The only way to solve that issue was to be downgraded to a queen room with creepy which I absolutely refused and add to manage by own... Secondly the room itself : view on the pool - nice but no air conditioning, and the TV screen did not work...

    This is somewhat overpriced for what the hotel is—a just slightly upmarket Marriott... As with many hotels in the LA area, the mandatory valet parking amounts to extortion, and a self park option ought to be available... People on vacation might want to be able to be spontaneous and not have to remember to text the valet just to access the car, to say nothing of having to both pay to park and to keep cash on hand to tip the attendant...

    ...We splurged on a king suite with an ocean view... For such a high end hotel, the furnishings are cheap... The sofa bed has almost no support and crunches when you sit, the way cheap upholstery does... Unbelievable for any decent hotel, let alone an upscale one... The food and drink in the hotel restaurant are excellent, if expensive... The valet parking is very responsive; it is complementary as of our stay, but I understand it will go up to $52 a day by the end of the year...

    ...The hotel staff inside apologized but said they would do their best to provide the same level of services. Services were definitely impacted - the restaurant closed early every day we were there and the menu was limited, staff did not know answers to simple questions as they had been flown in from other hotel sites to cover during the strike and were unfamiliar with the hotel and the local area, while our room was ready on time, several other family members who had flown in from across the country had to wait 3+ hours until their rooms were ready (6 PM), rooms were not always cleaned or trash taken out... The rooms were clean and car valet services were prompt...

    The staff at this hotel are what really made it such a great experience! Everyone was so friendly, made eye contact, and smiled... The maids double checked if we wanted fresh towels when they saw our privacy tag on the door... We appreciated the extra thought and offer there... Jimmy especially took the time to get to know us as a family and made sure we had everything we needed when we checked out bikes to use and when we needed assistance taking our luggage to the car... He waited patiently with us until our car arrived and helped us load everything... He was so kind and made a big difference in our stay!...

    ...I had called several weeks in advance and requested our usual room (we have been visiting and staying at this hotel for nearly 17 years). At check-in (9 p.m., after a 2+ hour flight and 50 minute drive), we were told that another guest was in our room... I pushed back as I had spoken directly with Claudia, the guest experience manager, and she seemed to have a good grasp on loyalty and customer service... We were provided the generic $30 credit for our disappointment... We accepted (after debating departing and staying at any other beach hotel), and 45 minutes after arriving were off to our room... I visited with Claudia later on Saturday... From the "Do Not Disturb" that was postesd on the door of our usual room (that we had to walk past multiple times per day) to the front desk team that really seem to struggle to understand customer service and loyalty, to the slightly dillapidated status of the hallways and rooms...

On the negative side, the staff can take an extremely long time to serve even a simple breakfast, the room has no coffee machine or mirrors on the bedroom walls and a very corporate feel to it... From the start he made us feel welcome and he looked after us by organising an excellent Hollywood trip for us and arranging taxis etc...

    ...First of all on the checking : I booked a king size room but the only king size room they have were located near to the pool ( Cabanon) which stairs ( not easy when you ankle is broken) and nobody from the hotel to help you to carry your lugguage... Lucky me some colleagues where here every morning/ night to manage the stairs... I came 5 times at the reception and every time the answer remain the same, it will be fixed by today … but today never happened... Restaurant - classic foods without test at least the only positive review I can give will be for the housekeeping and valet team... Always smiling and helping when necessary… For the rest and after paying more than $2,000 for this stay, I won’t recommande it at all... Even in a Motel you can get better service provided...

The front entry patio has relaxing lounge furniture with heat lamps, and the sound of a fountain gurgling nearby...

    ...Beach is walkable, which is a positive,but the stretch of Pico on which the hotel is located is somewhat bleak and a bit removed from the heart of Santa Monica. The pool is minuscule, and the experience at the hotel was not helped by the fact that there was a strike going on, necessitating the crossing of picket lines to enter the hotel and subjecting guests to a cacophony of drums and chants starting at the crack of dawn... People on vacation might want to be able to be spontaneous and not have to remember to text the valet just to access the car, to say nothing of having to both pay to park and to keep cash on hand to tip the attendant... Some of us like to have soap by the sink and in the shower, but only one bar is provided, requiring one to move it back and forth from the sink to the shower...

    I came to Le Meridien Delfina Santa Monica with my mother this June, it was our first time in Cali / Santa Monica and we loved it so much! The staff were excellent, so attentive and helpful - especially Hugo (concierge) who made us feel very welcome and gave us great tips on things to do / places to see in the area... Hugo was very friendly and kind and looked after us well during our stay... The room was spotlessly clean every single day after the cleaners came in and they went above and beyond to ensure the room was comfortable for us!... I could not recommend this hotel enough as it perfect for families, couples and solo travellers alike...

    I stayed here for a wedding weekend and could not have been more pleased. Valet promptly got us situated while front desk checked us in and let us know about the complimentary elite breakfast... was great in helping us unload the car and got us into our room with ease... The room got great natural light and the black out curtains were a godsend so we could sleep in... The location was convenient enough for us to walk a few blocks down to the restaurants to join some friends for dinner and walk back after... The hotel breakfast was delicious and we spent the rest of the morning walking around Santa Monica before checking out...

    We arrived for a quick visit to Los Angeles and were greeted with such a gracious and friendly staff, we were wishing we could stay longer. The front desk staff were highly professional as was the valet and Carlos, the professional who assisted us to our room... Most delightful was our host at the bar, Atilano... He indulged our sports fixation and we had an extremely pleasant visit over outstanding craft beer and artisanal cocktails at the bar... The small plates were exceptional as was the service... Atilano made sure our visit, though short, was memorable...

Just arrived and was greeted by Tracy. Far and away the most personable greeting I have ever received at the front desk of a hotel. As well as being welcoming, Tracy also provided an informative overview of the hotels amenities and was flexible with our early check in. She is extremely hospitable, friendly, and an asset to both this particular establishment as well as Marriott as a larger entity.

Tracy anticipated everything! Tracy at the front desk of this blocks from the beach with city and Santa Monica Mountain view hotel said yes before we could even ask for anything! You know what I mean, she anticipated everything. Before anything to do with our reservations she said yes to helping us while we were walking in. She said yes to two glasses of champagne (sparkling wine) as our arms hit the desk to check in. She said yes to a different room with a better view when she noticed our reserved room's configuration was not available. Tracy anticipated everything. Thank you Tracy and thank you Le Meridien Santa Monica.

Room is nice. The elevator wasn't working, so it took forever to get in and out. My real issue was with the extortion via the resort fee of about $40/day with taxes. Upon asking what I got in return, they listed off a bunch of ridiculous optional items. Beach yoga, shoe shine, rental bike, game room??? All I required and paid for was a place to sleep. If I wanted to do any of these, I would have signed up and paid. I subsidized the services of others who wanted to use these amenities. These egregious and extortion-like fees need to stop.

I was here for a quick work trip stay. Everyone was so friendly. Tracy at the front desk made me feel so special, upgrading my room type. It was also a nice touch at the restaurant - they called my room when my to-go order was ready so I knew when to go down. The room was nice and clean with a great oceanfront view. No complaints here!

Shoutout to Tracey at the front desk for being utterly amazing! From check-in to check-out, she will go above and beyond and is always such a smiley and welcoming presence (as are the door men/women). The location is also fab, and you're a mere walk away from Santa Monica Pier.
