Proximity to the beach, quiet relaxed atmosphere.
Friendly helpful staff.
Beautiful very private courtyard with a pool and areas to sit and relax.
We would definitely go back.
Very friendly staff, helpful and always a “hello” when leaving or entering the lobby. Great location and not too loud or busy. Spacious rooms and a stunning rooftop patio and bar.
I was very pleased with my stay at the Eden. The customer service experience, and overall hospitality was excellent. The location is prime and I really appreciated the maintenance and upkeep of the property.
The hotel staff was amazing. They helped with local recommendations for restaurants as well as activities. It was lovely to have a coffee shop in the lobby and a bar on the roof. The views were spectacular especially around sunset.
Beautiful historic hotel in Santa Monica on the beach front. Walking distance from the pier and great restaurants.
On the same road as the Red Bus tour with easy access Beverly Hills.
Great hotel with good amenities and very helpful staff.
We really enjoyed our stay. When we arrived, Bert at the front desk greeted us with kindness that felt special. Bert, thank you for your kindness and a welcoming greeting.
The property is kept clean. We enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi daily. The pool bar is convenient and drinks are delicious. From our window we could see the Pacific Ocean while stepping out of the room we overlook of the pool from the 5th floor. This was the perfect location for us we definitely will return and ask for the same room.
Great location to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Easy in and out valet parking PLUS free use of bicycles for an easy ride to Venice. 5 minute walk to tour bus stops that take you in and out of Hollywood.
Beautiful clean rooms, pool area is exceptional and the staff are kind and knowledgeable.
10/10- would stay again!
Excellent staff, premier location and nice accommodations. Did not like the $150/night incidental charges, or the $55/night parking fee (deducted from incidentals). But the location was unbeatable.

A lot of things seemed like they were damaged. Staff were very kind. I wish they had coffee available before 7am too.
