Nice hotel, but I have some reservations
Nice hotel, but several hidden charges you must pay at check in. The area around the hotel is not the nicest, so it’s a bit too pricey for what you actually get. Swimming pool area is tiny.

Staff was really nice and helpful. Rooms over looking the ocean on the higher floors are really nice. It’s a great place if you’re traveling with your pet. The food at their restaurant/in room dining is really good.

Probably a 3-3.5 star hotel
The pros are location, clean, friendly staff, small bottles of water available in lobby, nice vanity mirror/area, fridge.
Cons are no coffee in the room, no glasses in the room to get a drink, carpet was old. We are up early and had to wait for something to open to get coffee.

Viceroy-Santa Monica never disappoints. It’s our go to hotel when we visit Southern CA. Great staff! Location is perfect. Close to the beach and only a few blocks to just about everything the area has to offer.

We stayed here for a quick weekend getaway and it was the perfect choice for our family of three. Very comfy room, lovely staff, late access to the pool and awesome coffee bar open early. The location is fantastic - the beach is just 2 min right outside your door and there are tons of great restaurants all around. It felt like a nice little oasis just outside of the craziness by the pier but super walkable. Glad we chose the viceroy!

Nice ocean front room on 7th floor. Complementary water.
I think with this hotel price, complementary coffee in the room should be there.
