Regent Santa Monica Beach

LikedEverything Location, clean, staff, room size and amenities

LikedExtremely close to the pier and many options for food. The beach butler was extremely nice touch. Pool was not deep so allowed for short kids to reach the bottom.

LikedWe loved staying at Regent Hotel. Since we checked in, we had many pleasant surprises: 1. The personnel are super friendly and make very good recommendations about activities, food, local things to see, ... 2. The rooms are incredible: very large, modernly furnished, and with two separate Queen beds. 3. The Orla restaurant is a culinary delight with high-quality fish and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. 4. The concierge is extremely helpful and can make arrangements very fast (e.g.: car rental with pick up directly from the hotel). 5. The hotel is located only a few minutes away (walking) from the Santa Monica Pier. 6. From the hotel, you can easily walk to the Santa Monica Promenade located on 3rd Street. 7. Breakfast is simply amazing. They combine à la carte menu items with freshly made pastry delights. Moreover, the waiters are very nice (especially Jose). I honestly feel this was a very good deal for the high-quality facilities it offers.

DislikedThe concierge usually make the arrangements through third-parties. In our case, we rented a car and explicitly mentioned we need it for only one day without overnight Valet Parking. We were told this is extremely easy: just return the car before 7 PM and the valet will make sure it is picked up by the external. Unfortunately, this didn't happen because the valet never actually called the external vendor so we ended up paying for overnight parking. Recommendation: always ping the external party in such situations rather than relying on the valet.

LikedVery we’ll refurbished. Room was brilliant for a family. Facilities and food great

LikedGreat room, all modern and spacious. Guest services are amazing. Location perfect for walking.

LikedThe entire resort! Highlights were the room, the staff, the location, the room service, the coffee, the “lounge” (allows you to have a shower and change for a long haul flight even though you’ve checked out).

DislikedShower took a long time to heat up (>5 min).
