Avi Brosh's distinctive curation and attention to detail.
Conjuring Gertrude Stein, Hemingway, Joyce, Picasso and Matisse in the Palihouse SM salon.
The ubiquitous P.
Sumptuous window banquettes.
Gabskidermy.
Dramatic curtain call.
Bubbly welcomes are always best.
Prints, papers, palettes, particulars...Palihouse.
P. is for a perfect night's sleep.
We almost stole the robes.
Full-size kitchens, perfect for longer stays.
The sunlit breakfast nook.
Selfies in the dressing room's vanity mirror.
Lovely garden terrace with Malibu tiles and Cyprus trees.
Cruising by the Santa Monica Pier on the rental Linus Dutchi bikes.
The elegant Spanish Colonial Revival-style.
Highs & Lows
-
The Linus “Dutchi” bike rentals for cruising along the beach from Santa Monica to Venice or Malibu; or to Abbot Kinney, Third Street Promenade or the Santa Monica Farmers Market, where you can fill the basket up with organic produce to cook in your very own Palihouse kitchen.
-
100% smoke free.
-
Handsome, well-appointed, spacious suites with stealable custom toiletries and stationery; but they’ll charge you for that irresistable Le Labo candle, so think before you strike the match!
-
No pool. If you’re not into chilly, briny Pacific dips, they’ll arrange to take you to Annenberg Beach House for use of its pool.
-
Front desk can be understaffed and slow during busier periods, but they more than make up for it with courteous, knowledgeable and accommodating service.

Neither. The beach is a stone’s throw away.
-
Restaurant
Cozy café in the salon-esque lobby offers a good breakfast and lunch menu.
-
Bar
No bar, though the quaint, diminutive coffee counter will soon be serving cocktails exclusively to hotel guests.
-
Children
We found the well-mannered progeny of the chic, worldly guests poking about the lobby’s curio totally adorbs.

Good bang for your buck.
