Great overall, but service in restaurants not up to par
Excellent location and great overall in terms of condition of facilities and comfort. Concierge also very helpful in terms of getting us tables on short notice in great and popular restaurants. Big disappointment in terms of the service level in one of the hotel’s own restaurants however.....not up to par for a hotel of that level and cost.
Traveller's tip on local attractions
Bikes are available for rent at a reasonable cost from the hotel directly. Great and very convenient to then be able to ride down to Venice and onwards to places like Marina del Rey, etc...

Amazing Shutters Experience
We have stayed at some great hotels around the world, and Shutters is one of the best. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly from the moment you step out of your car. Our "partial ocean view" room was on the top floor and had a beautiful view of the beach, sunsets and ocean as well as pool area. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and plenty large. The bathroom including shower and bath were awesome. They were great about meeting our every need including our baby needs. The poolside food/drink service was great. The restaurant Coast was great. I miss it already and hope to come back.
Traveller's tip on local attractions
Try to make it to one of the two Santa Monica farmer’s markets, each (Saturday or Sunday) is in easy walking distance. Best boutique shopping is on Main Street heading toward Venice. We loved the brunches at Rose Cafe.

The best
Shutters has a wonderful, understated California casual feel to it. The rooms have hardwood floors and are filled with built-ins and books that create a wonderful ambiance. The lobby is inviting and the restaurant excellent in all respects. This is where I will also stay in LA.
