Great hotel on a unique place!
Pros:

The hotel is located on an unique location in Santa Monica. It is right on the beach front and the hotel is also very orientated towards the beach. Having a drink outside on the first floor when the sun goes down is magic.

Cons:

Nothing really.

Très bel établissement confortable , mais allez dîner ailleurs 😊
Pros:

Établissement très bien placé , chambre confortable, personnel très agréable et réactif

Cons:

Nous avons testé les deux restaurants et nous avons été très déçus par la qualité des plats . Au Pico , plat de pâtes sans saveur et très petite quantité dans l assiette , idem pour notre fille …. Une ridicule assiette creuse de pâtes digne d une amuse bouche …. Quelle honte pour un restaurant qui se veut haut de gamme .

Perfect weekend getaway.
Pros:

The location was perfection. The food was delicious. The staff was wonderful. I genuinely loved my lobster roll lunch in the outdoor restaurant. I keep thinking about it. We did a weekend getaway and spent one day in Abbot Kinney and one day in Malibu. It was perfect.

Cons:

Here's the thing, it's stunning, but for the price, the room was definitely smaller than expected. Gorgeous but tight.

Pleasant stay
Pros:

Had a very pleasant stay at Shutters. Great location in Santa Monica. I particularly liked the lobby and bar area - great for a nice drink.

Possibly a bit of a refresh coming up in the next couple of years (ironically the shutters were starting to weather!) but nonetheless, a lovely spot

In short - stay here if you can.
