My stay at the Hotel Shangri-la was impressive. The rooms were much bigger than expected, and I loved the super bathroom and the sea view. However, the soaker tub had rust spots, so I couldn't use it. The service was beyond incredible, with the staff being incredibly accommodating and upbeat. The location was cool, close to the Santa Monica Pier, shopping, and great bars. The dining was good but lacked variety, especially in non-English/American options. Overall, a memorable stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel provides spacious rooms that are nice and surprisingly soundproof, although they seemed a bit unkept for the price paid. The generous room size was quite impressive, especially with the option of a kitchenette in some rooms.

The service was beyond amazing, with the staff offering us an upgrade and late checkout. Particularly Adrienne, the concierge, was very friendly and helpful, recommending enjoyable activities like the electric bike tour with Barbara. However, the charging without showing the price in advance was a downside.

The location is excellent with easy access to the pier, beach, and Broadway, making it perfect, especially during hot weather. The hotel is well-appointed with lots of lounging areas and very clean. However, the parking charges were a bit high, $49 per night plus tip for valet parking.

The hotel is in a great location, close to the beach and surrounded by fantastic restaurants. The rooms were a bit small and old, not meeting expectations described in the description. The service was friendly but lacked promptness in tidying up. The location is excellent for exploring Las Vegas and beyond. The dining options were satisfactory but could have been more creative.

The rooms around the pool were underwhelming compared to the description. They were small and old, not what I had hoped for. I didn't even need the pool as I could have swum a couple of lengths in the bath.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were absolutely amazing, with two bedrooms, a living room, a huge wrap-around balcony, and a stunning ocean view. They were immaculate, well-appointed, and super comfortable. However, there were issues with the rooms getting really hot, an extra cost added at checkout, very expensive parking, and noise from the bar until the early hours, along with limited access to the sunset due to loud partygoers.

My stay at the hotel was amazing and spacious, with incredible rooms but could have been bigger for the cost. The service was beyond incredible, offering the highest level of customer service. The location was terrific, opposite the beach in Los Angeles. The dining experience was awesome but could have been a little more creative for the money.

The dining was awesome, as nice as in the best hotels in Europe. The rooftop bar wasn't friendly, and breakfast could have been better.
