What People Are Saying About The Georgian Hotel

The Scene – Sitting on one of the city's most coveted, palm-lined plots, the Georgian is a short walk to the restaurants and shops of the Third Street Promenade and the historic Santa Monica Pier. Back in its heyday, a patient onlooker could spot Clark Gable savoring a martini or Carole Lombard listening to the strains of jazz on the ocean-facing veranda. During Prohibition, the hotel/speakeasy was a hot spot for both the famous and infamous--Fatty Arbuckle and mobster Bugsy Siegel were familiar faces. – – The Details – The turquoise-and-gold building with art deco…

Great atmosphere, so-so service
by Kaitlyn918
I was fantasizing about sweet tea and the oppressive humidity that characterized my roadtrip through the south this summer. Thought the Georgian looked like a nice place to reminisce. Dined here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn't very busy but the service was dreadfully slow. Iced Tea was overpriced. However, the location and beautiful front patio are appealing enough to bring me back- except next time it'll just be for an evening cocktail..
- Pros: Location, outdoor seating
- Cons: lunch service left something to be desired

Reasonably-priced and clean hotel with an ocean view...
by freebie_grabber
Don't expect any frills with the Georgian Hotel. The standard rooms are small and the hallways are narrow. Due to its older architecture, the valets are unable to wheel luggage carts all the way down to the curbside. If you want ice cubes in your room, you need to call the front desk. Parking is expensive -- use the cheap city lot around the corner on 2nd Street. One nice feature, however, is that the entire hotel, including the outdoor verdanda, is 100% NON-SMOKING thanks to a recent Santa Monica city ordinance. You're within a two short blocks of the (obnoxiously noisy and crowded) Third Street Promenade and the S.M. Pier, and you're right across the street from the ocean. The hotel also offers express check-out via your television's remote control. Overall, The Georgian Hotel is a reasonably-priced and clean hotel with an ocean view, and offers a cheap alternative for pricier hotels like the Loews and Shutters On The Beach.
- Pros: Close to everything, clean, 100% non-smoking
- Cons: Small, parking is expensive

The Georgian offers a little of everything. A classical hotel with ocean views. The best place to have a morning breakfast and greet the day. All my employees loved staying here.
- Pros: close to beach, shopping area, easy access
