We checked into Le Méridien Santa Monica on Sunday, July 21, after leaving another hotel chain where we felt uncomfortable. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and our best friend's birthday. From the moment we walked through the doors, Tracy, the front desk representative, greeted us with the warmest welcome. Her friendly and professional demeanor instantly made us feel at ease and genuinely cared for, as if we were meant to be there.
Tracy went above and beyond to make our stay special. When she asked what brought us to town, we mentioned our celebrations. Without hesitation, she brought out champagne to add to our festivities, making us feel truly celebrated and appreciated. Her thoughtful gesture set the tone for the rest of our stay.
We stayed for three nights, and the other staff members were equally wonderful. The room was very comfortable and impeccably clean. The concierge service and valet were also incredible.
If you're looking for five-star treatment in an elegant hotel, Le Méridien Santa Monica is the place to stay. Tracy's exceptional service and attention to detail made our stay unforgettable. Thank you, Tracy, for making our special occasion even more memorable.
About Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica
Le Méridien Delfina Santa Monica offers a location that some guests appreciate. The hotel itself is great, clean, and in a great location close to the beach and easy to get around. Guests find the rooms clean and spacious with a lovely view, comfortable beds, neat furniture, and a small balcony. Housekeeping does an amazing job and comes daily. There is a lovely pool, bikes for guest use, and beach towels available at the lobby. The front desk service can be inconsistent, with some staff being wonderfully friendly and helpful, while others can be a major letdown with a disrespectful tone and attitude. Overall, many feel the experience does not justify the high prices.
Reviews
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Barbara and were thoroughly impressed from beginning to end.
Our room was beautiful, spacious, and very comfortable, with a lovely partial view of the ocean. Everything was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully maintained. The daily housekeeping service was excellent — our room was always fresh, tidy, and welcoming when we returned.
The staff truly made our stay even more enjoyable. Everyone we encountered was exceptionally friendly, helpful, and attentive, making us feel genuinely welcome throughout our visit.
We also had a fantastic experience at Coastal Harvest Bar & Kitchen. The food was delicious,… read full review
We live just a few blocks away but needed to stay here for several days bc of some construction. Our parents had had great past stays here and it was really convenient being able to stay in our wonderful Ocean Park neighborhood. The service from Andrew and Brian were above and beyond and they truly went out of their way to make us feel so welcome. While this is a Hyatt, they really made it feel like a local neighborhood business and we are so happy we stayed here. Thank you!
