The hype
Travelers love the chic vibe and rooftop views but are often disappointed by the lack of a real pool and the high valet costs.
Huntley Santa Monica Beach
$230-550/ 박
다음의 경우 예약하세요 You want a sexy, high-design tower with killer rooftop views and don't mind walking two blocks to the actual sand.
사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- The Penthouse rooftop bar has arguably the best 360-degree views in Santa Monica
- Design-forward interiors that feel more 'LA cool' than 'beach bum'
- Location is a perfect split between the beach and 3rd Street Promenade shopping
한눈에 보기: A stylish vertical scene that trades a swimming pool for a rooftop DJ and ocean views from a distance.
@daholisticgypsy님의 리뷰: My stay at The Huntley was the perfect reminder to enjoy the moment. The rooftop brunch was incredible, and the suite was massive. If you're debating booking a trip, just do it—you won't regret these views.

Reality check
The 'Ocean View' rooms are spectacular, but 'City View' rooms can feel a bit generic for the price point.
- You prioritize a lively rooftop scene over a quiet pool day
- You want to be walkable to both high-end shopping and the pier
- You appreciate modern, 'jazzy' interior design over traditional luxury
청결 & 유지관리
8.8
- Housekeeping: Generally consistent daily service, though some reports of missed dusting on high ledges.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling surfaces, but watch out for 'tired' grout in unrenovated bathrooms.
- Maintenance: Some wear and tear visible—scuffed baseboards and unsealed windows are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: High-quality Egyptian cotton, usually crisp and fresh.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells expensive (signature scent), but hallways can occasionally trap food smells from room service.

자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is there a pool?
No. There is only a small whirlpool/hot tub in a 'relaxation lounge,' not a swimming pool.
How far is the beach?
It's a 2-block walk (about 5-7 minutes) to the sand, crossing Ocean Ave.
Is it pet friendly?
No, the Huntley has a strict no-pets policy.
Does the rooftop bar get loud?
Yes, especially on weekends. It transforms into a lounge/club vibe that can be heard on the floor directly below.
Is breakfast included?
No, it's à la carte at The Penthouse or Gene's Cafe. Expect to pay $25-45 per person.
What is the parking situation?
Valet only, approximately $68/night with in/out privileges. There are cheaper public garages nearby if you don't mind walking.
내부자 팁
- ✨
Use the house car (black SUV) for free drop-offs within 3 miles—great for getting to dinner in Venice without Uber surge pricing.
- ✨
The 'secret' glass elevator on the exterior of the building offers a free thrill ride with ocean views.
- ✨
Happy Hour at The Penthouse (Mon-Fri, 3-6pm) is the best way to experience the views without paying $30 for a cocktail.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'ocean view' is often obstructed by other buildings on lower floors; you need to be floor 9+ for the real deal.
💡The windows are not double-paned, meaning 2nd Street traffic noise is a real morning wake-up call.
💡The 'gym' is functional but small and often crowded in the mornings.
💡Room service has a steep delivery fee + service charge that can double your bill.
💡The bathroom layout in some standard rooms has a peek-a-boo glass shower that offers zero privacy.
