Palihouse Santa Monica

The location is perfect, close to the beach but in a quiete area. Also close to the main attractions in town. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms are fairly big and clean. The beds are comfortable. Good breakfast albeit a bit pricy. The hotel in itself is very charming and well decorated!

Breakfast wasn't included but available to order, which we did twice and really enjoyed, especially sitting in the lovely garden at the back. Loved the historic building, quirky interiors, and beautifully landscaped gardens.

The building is fantastic, loads of character. This does mean that there are some quirks such as the plumbing not being perfect and there are creaks from the flooring but if you like character this place is great. Lovely lounge area and gardens both front and back. All the staff were great, exceptionally friendly. Although the bed was small for a hotel, it must have been comfortable as neither I, or my wife woke up until much later than we usually would have.

From the beginning the stuff was great and very welcoming. They celebrated with us our special moment and did everything to make it as memoroble as possible. The hotel itself has very unique, unusual and retro design and you can see that the owner put a lot of though into the place. The location is also great and very close to the beach broadwalk. Definitely great choise for the vacation.

The location of the Pali House is great. A few blocks from the 3rd Street Promenade with shops and restaurants. It is 3 blocks from the amazing Santa Monica bluffs on Ocean Blvd where you can have beautiful sunset views of Malibu and the Santa Monica Pier. The Pali House is old mission style building full of charm and history. The lift(elevator) is the original. The outdoor patio is great for breakfast.
