I am a business man and I am a frequenter of the Santa Monica area, and Fairmont hotels nationwide. I prefer to stay out on the west side because in my opinion its much nicer than inland la. That being said for the holidays I decided to take a vacation with my family to visit friends of ours in the... more

Excellent staff, will do everything possible to make your stay memorable and to encourage your return. From the moment of your arrival, the valet's welcome you every time, and remember your name, same with the front desk staff, who always ensure you have everything you need, immediately, Even the maid staff will overwhelm you with their concern that your room... more

The service and staff at this hotel is exceptional. The rooms are always clean and well appointed. It is great to be able to swim in the pool and relax in the hot tub. more

A great personal service right from check in. The rooms were beautifully appointed (although on the slightly small side), with fabulous views - we had the pier, our parents Malibu. The bar, the restaurant "Fig", the concierge... you name it, every part of the hotel gave first class service. Nothing was too much for these guys - even the complimentary... more

everything top notch, however the bathrooms in the rooms are very small and much less elaboarate than one would expect in a hotel of this class. more
