Top 10 Santa Monica hotels and places to stay

Sheraton Universal Hotel
4.0 star property
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, 3,616 reviews
"I highly recommend this hotel. This hotel was incredibly spacious and clean. Very close to Universal Hollywood Studios. Recommend walking to Universal rather than trying to catch shuttle in the morning due to delays from being full. The pool was large and deep which was a great way to refresh at the end of a long day. Busy hotel (as expected) but no noise in our room at all. Buffet breakfast was good. Close to the Metro as well. Would stay again!"

"We enjoyed our 5-night stay at this hotel. It was clean, spacious, the staff were friendly and helpful. We didn't spend a lot of time in the hotel other than sleeping, but we tried to utilize a lot of the amenities when we could. The restaurant offered a variety of food, the pool was refreshing, and the complimentary glasses of champagne were an added bonus! The location was also very convenient, as we were able to walk to Santa Monica Place, Santa Monica Pier, and Venice Beach. We'd definitely...
