Kimpton Hotels, Santa Monica hotels

"The hotel is very well located within walking distance to excellent restaurants, attractions such as the Chinese Theatre, Dolby Theatre, wax museums and Hollywood Museum (highly recommended). Tours and the Big Bus leave from nearby stops. You can also see the Hollywood sign from the area adjacent to the pool. The bar area is well patronised and we saw appetising snacks served. The buffet breakfast was adequate but expensive at $42. The on-site cafe has snacks and a variety of items. The hotel charges a 20% service fee, even when purchasing water from the fridge where no service is provided. This resulted in an additional $2 cost!"

"Great place, great location, great staff. All around excellent. "
