I love staying at The Ambrose. It's not a huge hotel and the staff greets you by name each time you walk in the door. They have an amazing continental breakfast included with the room and the fitness center is perfect for the size of the hotel. more

My Family and I recently stayed at the Ambtose during a one night stop over in Santa Monica. We found the staff very helpful and the atmosphere was very relaxing after a long flight from Melbourne. I will stay here again if I am ever in Santa Monica more

I've stayed here close to a dozen times, always on business, and to the comfort of the Ambrose continues to be a treat when dragging myself back after a long day of fighting LA traffic. The beds are just the best -- great linens, comfy pillows and mattress. It is understated yet elegant, a welcome break from the showy West... more

We upgraded to a suite on the 4th floor and boy was it worth it. We had a large room with a huge double bed and there was a comfortable sofabed for my travel partner to stay on. The room had a desk, sofa, large bed, and there was a big TV with a huge number of channel. The bathroom... more

We stayed here for 3 nights. The rooms were well presented, clean and comfy! Parking was secure and free, and the complimentary breakfast was a bonus! There was no view from our room, we felt we had paid enough, and I guess a view would have come at a cost! Apart from the sound of neighbouring doors slamming, the room... more

We recently returned from a 7 day vacation to the Los Angeles area and stayed at The Ambrose Hotel. We were initially concerned re. a first floor room (especially one near the elevator) however it was very quiet without any hallway noise. The parking garage (free) is below the hotel with an easy key entry system allowing access to the... more

We stayed at the Ambrose for 2 nights while just arriving from france and adapting to jet lag. We really appreciated the quiet surroundings and friendliness of staff. Breakfast was served very early (from 6 am) which also really suited us. As we were travelling with our 3 kids (aged 6 to 10) we asked for and were given two... more
