    My stay at Ambrose was exceptional, with friendly staff who promptly assisted with my business needs. The room offered a comfortable workspace, and I appreciated the cleanliness and modern design. The complimentary breakfast included a variety of artisan breads and fresh fruits. The outdoor patio provided a relaxing environment, perfect for informal meetings.

    complimentary tesla rides
    spacious clean room
    friendly service
    lack of breakfast variety

    We had such a great time staying here with friends! The service was top-notch, and we loved the complimentary Tesla rides and the free bike rentals. We visited the beach and the Santa Monica Pier, which were both awesome. The room was super spacious and clean, making our trip even better.

    We did find the breakfast selection a bit lacking. it wasn't a full-scale offering.

    spacious room
    cleaning service

    We loved our stay, especially the wine hour with great selections and a friendly bartender. The spacious Traditional Studio King worked perfectly for our family of seven, and we appreciated the helpful staff. We took advantage of the nearby Santa Monica beach and pier.

    For dads, it would be great if there were daily cleaning services without needing to request them in advance.

    limited seating
    staff issues

    I had a really enjoyable stay at the Ambrose. The location is perfect for getting around, just a short walk to the beach, and it felt peaceful and relaxing. The complimentary bikes made exploring super easy. The decor struck a cozy and inviting tone, and my room was comfortable and clean. The outdoor seating area was lovely for morning coffee. Staff members Nick and Brandon stood out with their warm hospitality. However, the breakfast selection felt limited, and the seating area could get cramped, especially during busy times. I also noticed a lack of organization during breakfast hours, with some items running out quickly. Overall, I think with more attention to breakfast service, it could be an even better experience.

    I adored my stay! My room was spacious, with plush bedding that hugged me to sleep like a cloud. They have complimentary bicycles that made exploring the area a breeze! Plus, the garden area is a hidden gem, perfect for a relaxing afternoon soak in the sun.

    Charming stay with great amenities

    I recently enjoyed a charming stay at this lovely hotel, where the cozy decor and friendly staff made my experience delightful. The complimentary bikes for easy exploration were a fantastic touch, and I appreciated the Tesla service that really added convenience. However, the breakfast selection felt a bit limited for my taste, which is something that could be improved.

    breakfast spread

    Recommend it for families seeking a haven

    I was really impressed with how friendly the staff was, especially during breakfast. They were super polite and made sure we were comfortable. Plus, the breakfast spread was great, lots of choices, even some pastries I couldn't get enough of.

    It wasn’t inexpensive, but you get what you pay for.

    upscale room
    helpful staff
    cramped space
    basic breakfast
    parking challenges

    The traditional queen room was upscale and comfortable, offering a quiet retreat. Located conveniently in Santa Monica, it provided easy access to local attractions and dining options. The elegant lobby and helpful staff added to the experience, especially when they provided taxis and umbrellas during our rainy stay. Parking was convenient, but the room felt slightly cramped for a family. Breakfast options included takeaway Jimmy Dean sandwiches, which were nice but basic.
