This spot was in such a cute area! The place was small but had more than enough with a full kitchen. We had no issue with parking as we paid for a spot. It was right next to the hotel and we walked everywhere while we were there. It was a beautiful location. The rooftop views were breathtaking. It was clean and the staff were friendly and accommodating. They had bikes and beach equipment for free. It was a great experience!

Location is great. Room was clean and comfortable. Only dislikes are the room we had didn't have a window to outside, which wasn't too bad considering we were only there to sleep and shower. Parking can be tricky, but the hotel gave us a spot out back for $30/day. Would recommend booking several weeks or months out, the price was great with a lot of notice.

Location, location.

If you want to be near Hermosa pier, beach, and the surrounding businesses, this is a good location. There’s limited access to staff on site but they communicate well by cell. A little noisy at night but the complimentary bike were very nice. I would stay here again.

This was our first time staying here. My husband and I have been to the Hermosa area several times over the past few years and this hotel was just awesome. We were very close to the beach. We absolutely loved our stay! This property is kept very clean and has everything available for use during your stay. The staff were amazing. We will be returning again soon.

Though it was pricey, I'm thankful that I had the option to pay $30 for a parking permit, as we were getting back to the room close to midnight after a show at the forum, and I wanted guaranteed parking. Reaching a person to ask about things like late check out is proving to be difficult, however. I really like having a door code instead of a key. The room is nicely decorated and the bathroom is huge! Loved the shower. Bed is ok--glad I was just sleeping one night, though! Overall very lovely stay!

Good stay

The pro is this hotel is in walking distance to the beach, pier and everything in between. The conis because it’s so close to everything it can be loud. Other than that the place is clean and comfortable.

SW Beach Hotel was a welcomed surprise! Wonderful cottage feel as all rooms were decorated uniquely. Roof top terrace was so cool!! The staff was extremely helpful and allowed us to store our luggage in room while still preparing it. We said it many times while there "we're definitely coming back here!"
