Kissed by the fresh air that sweeps off the Pacific coast, with a vibrant atmosphere where modern beachside glamour meets casual urban chic, Huntley Santa Monica Beach invites you to experience the best of Santa Monica. Overlooking a world-renowned stretch of golden beach, this fabulous boutique hotel welcomes you with classic elegance, contemporary sophistication, and the relaxed and playful ambiance that only Southern California can provide. Spacious rooms are dramatic and inviting, with sleek lines, deep chocolate and pale cream palates, and dark wood accents adding a decidedly designer touch. Natural sunlight filters through large picture windows, while the panoramic views of ocean, cityscape and mountains will take your breathe away. Huntley Santa Monica Beach is truly as amazing indoors as it is under the sunny California skies.

Impeccable experience! Rooms and services are very curated and of great quality. It was so good I went back after only few days!

Great hotel and service close to the beach in a quiet neighborhood - wish they had a pool - maybe in the future! Walkable to santa monica action but peaceful street. Would like a few more casual value items on the restaurant dinner menu but that is only complaint. Wifi also fine but would nice to have a higher tier for business use.

The service at The Huntley was exceptional. The staff was attentive, professional, and made the entire stay feel seamless. The convenience and location alone make this hotel a 10/10. The rooms were clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the views were beautiful. While the building is older and the views are more of an 8/10 compared to some newer high-rises, they are still stunning and absolutely enjoyable. The Penthouse restaurant was very lively and loud on Valentine’s Day, which is expected for a holiday weekend. However, I stayed five days and genuinely enjoyed every single meal — including room service. The food and consistency were impressive. Overall, it’s a great location in a beautiful town. Santa Monica is special, and The Huntley is a GREAT place to experience it.

We Frequently stay at The Huntley for monthly "staycations". It is our go to hotel. Location is a 10 and we can walk to all bars and restaurants, the pier, boardwalk, third street promenade, etc. Front desk staff greets us by name, always have a smile on their face and are professional, informative, and helpful with any of our requests. The Penthouse restaurant at the top of the hotel has the best view in Santa Monica. Rooms are spacious and have great views. We stay at this hotel 8 to 10 times a year and love it.

I threw my mom a birthday party at the Penhouse. Mandy did an exceptional job helping me plan and execute the party from afar. She made the whole process so easy. And mom and her friends had the absolute best time. They are all asking to do their milestone birthdays at the Penthouse. 5 stars!
