About the Hotel

For the ultimate in California dreaming, check into Shade Hotel. Located in laid back Manhattan Beach, a coastal community of Los Angeles, this stylish boutique hotel was listed as the #6 reason to visit LA by the editors of Condé Nast Traveler. It also landed on the magazine's prestigious Hot List, as one of only 19 US properties to make the cut. But a rendezvous at Shade has as much to do with attitude as it does comfort. The rooms alone make quite a statement with a lighting system known as chromotherapy that color-customizes your surroundings and alters your mood with the flick of a switch. The shoji-screened baths provide an organic feel with two-person spa tubs, soothing showers and luxe linens. When color cannot provide the necessary jolt, play the part of barista by toying with your in-room espresso machine. Other unconventional perks include a Pillow Library and complimentary Beach Breakfast Buffet.

Reviews for Shade Hotel

Almost perfect

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

The hotel has an awesome staff and amenities. The location could not be better. Excellent Restaurant as well. Rooms are perfectly fine. The staff is top-notch in every way. My only complaint is that the HVAC system is programmed to a maximum low of 72° starting at 2:30 AM. I like to sleep cooler than that but you don’t get that choice. A fan was provided at least which was very helpful.

The upgrades look great guys! Such a special place for our family, married in 2017 and coming back never gets old. The food, the location, and everything about this place is well done. Shout out to Gustavo and the gang as well. We’ll be back! -Dr Moore

Stay away from the shade hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

I have stayed her numerous times and this was the all time worst!!! To start the bottom sheet on the bed kept coming off when we slept. 2nd the room air conditioner would not cool down the room and we were so hot! Then to top it off the blue lights would not turn off anywhere and we had to sleep with them all night since the telephone also didn't work to call the front desk!! Not coming back it was a waste of money!!!

This was my third stay at this hotel. If you want to be in Manhattan Beach, the location can't be beat. I love the rooms - beds are super comfortable! But, for the price, there is a lot lacking. The last two times I've stayed my room was on the first floor with a slider opening to the courtyard. Because of this, I couldn't get any daylight in because of the extreme lack of privacy. In addition, the hotel is LOUD. My room was near the restaurant and it was super noisy. In addition, I constantly heard doors slamming all throughout the night. On Sunday morning at 7 am, there was vacuuming going on right outside of my room.

Very comfortable beds and bedding, delicious food! The bar and refrigerator were fully stocked. The closers were very small and made it hard to hang formal wear. A ring was lost in room #216 and never found or turned in. The staff didn’t seem too helpful.
