    The Eden is a historic hotel in Santa Monica and there have been updates but some aspect/character has been maintained. The rooms were clean and did not hear much of the street noise on Ocean drive. The pool/hot tub was small but welcoming after spending time of the beach which is just across the street from the hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The 1st floor coffee shop and poolside wood grill pizza were excellent for snack and drinks. Would definitely recommend

    Other than that staff was very friendly. Traffic and street noise can be an issue so CLOSE UP EVERY WINDOW. That definitely helps. Nice rooms and bathrooms. Would have loved coffee or water or amenities in rooms. There are no extras at all. We didn't anticipate that... Especially for the price. We travel a lot so we notice these things. Also, beware of the hundreds (literally) in extra fees. We had never seen anything like like that either. Tourism Fee. Occupancy Tax. Parking Fee. Valet Parking. Valet Tax. Destination Fees... Yikes!! Probably a CA thing...that was unfortunate as well. Hope that helps! Dr. B

    Everything was amazing! The staff at check-in were so friendly and helpful. We stayed in a 2-bedroom suite with a gorgeous view of the pier and ocean. Super comfortable bed and even though I didn’t have time for a soak in the tub, it looked amazing. Can definitely recommend The Eden hotel and will be back!

    Location of this hotel is fabulous and we enjoyed a view of the ocean from our room. The staff was absolutely terrific...they could not have been more helpful. My only "complaint" was our room. While very clean, the furnishings were a bit tired. Wood furniture such as the desk and nightstands had chips in them. No extras...no bottled water, the bare minimum with the bathroom towels, no makeup mirror and the bathtub was about 3 feet tall which made it very difficult to get in and out of to take a shower. We also had numerous problems with our TV and the staff had to come up to take care of it. They were excellent about it. Be aware of the "resort fee" and the parking as both totaled about $100 per day.
