Frommer's Review

L.A.'s finest family-friendly hotel is also a great choice for anybody looking for comfortable accommodations, an A-1 Santa Monica location, outstanding service, and a wealth of first-rate facilities. Loews isn't exactly beachfront; it's on a hill less than a block away, but the unobstructed ocean views are fabulous. Immediately upon entering, guests are wowed by the dramatic atrium lobby with its playful So Cal style (including dual rows of huge palm trees), which serves as a great backdrop for the spectacular ocean views. The guest rooms have an inviting, clean-lined contemporary style in light, earthy colors. But the best news is still the top-rated facilities, which include an excellent heated pool, plus the fitness center and spa with a state-of-the-art gym, yoga and Pilates classes, health and fitness counseling, and full slate of spa and salon services.

The restaurant Ocean & Vine is one of the newest editions to the hotel, offering California farm-to-table cuisine and expertly paired wines to match. The stunning patio has fire pits, lounge chairs, and the picturesque backdrop of the beach and Santa Monica pier. The Papillon Lobby Bar is a classy spot for a drink.

Facilities: Restaurant; bar; poolside lunch service; oceanview outdoor heated pool and whirlpool; full-service spa; state-of-the-art workout room, steam, and sauna; bike and skate rentals; concierge; Hertz car-rental desk; executive business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning.
