Location: Sunset Strip vs Downtown Santa Monica

West Hollywood EDITION – Location

West Hollywood EDITION sits at the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Doheny Drive on the Sunset Strip.

  • Walkable to live-music venues like Whisky a Go Go and the Roxy Theatre.
  • Close driving distances to Beverly Hills shopping, museums and LA cultural attractions.
  • Rideshare and several Metro bus lines serve the area; car recommended for wider LA travel.

Best if you want immediate access to West Hollywood nightlife and Sunset Strip attractions.

Santa Monica Proper Hotel – Location

Santa Monica Proper Hotel is located in Downtown Santa Monica on Wilshire Boulevard, a short trip from the pier and Third Street Promenade.

  • About 1.6 miles (1 mi per supplier distances) from Santa Monica Beach and close to shopping and restaurants.
  • Hotel runs a beach shuttle for a surcharge; local walking options include Third Street Promenade and Santa Monica Place.
  • Preferred airport is LAX; drive times vary with traffic to other LA neighborhoods.

Best if you want a Westside base with easy access to beaches, seaside dining and Santa Monica’s walkable retail district.

Rooms: What to expect in each property

West Hollywood EDITION – Rooms

West Hollywood EDITION has 190 modern rooms, 48 suites and 2 penthouses with floor-to-ceiling windows.

  • Rooms include deluxe bedding, complimentary Wi‑Fi and contemporary design touches.
  • Selection includes multiple suites, lofts and terrace rooms (15 types listed).
  • House policies include a destination fee and valet-only parking (fee).

Choose EDITION for a compact set of highly curated luxury room types and suite options in a boutique scale.

Santa Monica Proper Hotel – Rooms

Santa Monica Proper Hotel offers 261 air-conditioned rooms with Frette linens and Smart TVs.

  • Room types range from Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed to multiple Premier and Suite options (many exact room names listed).
  • Rooms feature minibars, complimentary toiletries and some room categories with balconies or terraces.
  • Connecting/adjoining rooms are available on request; check-in age 21 noted in supplier listing.

Proper Hotel provides more rooms and a broader set of room types, which may suit groups and meeting attendees better.

Dining & drinks: On-site options

West Hollywood EDITION – Dining & drinks

West Hollywood EDITION focuses on vegetable-forward California cuisine, rooftop dining, and late-night cocktails.

  • Ardor is the signature restaurant (vegetable-forward California) with limited dinner hours.
  • The Roof serves breakfast and Latin/Californian-inspired drinks and dinner with skyline views.
  • Lobby Bar offers coffee by day and bespoke cocktails by night; Sunset nightclub provides late-night entertainment.

Edition is better if you want rooftop dining, late-night options, and a kitchen-led, plant-forward menu.

Santa Monica Proper Hotel – Dining & drinks

Santa Monica Proper Hotel has two restaurants, a bar/lounge and a coffee shop/cafe, plus limited room service.

  • Local-cuisine breakfasts are available daily for a fee (hours 7:00 AM–11:30 AM per supplier).
  • Two on-site restaurants and a poolside bar are listed; snack and coffee options available during the day.
  • Room service is offered on a limited schedule and the hotel hosts occasional food/wine events.

Proper Hotel is convenient for daytime beachside dining and easy access to downtown Santa Monica restaurants.

Pools & beach access

West Hollywood EDITION – Pools & beach access

West Hollywood EDITION has a guests-only rooftop outdoor pool with cabanas and city/hills views.

  • Pool access is complimentary to hotel guests; adjacent rooftop bar is open more broadly.
  • Cabanas and loungers are available (cabanas may carry a surcharge).
  • Pool hours are posted; typical public listings indicate roughly late morning to sunset hours.

The EDITION pool is an urban rooftop amenity with skyline views, not a beach facility.

Santa Monica Proper Hotel – Pools & beach access

Santa Monica Proper Hotel offers an outdoor pool and a paid beach shuttle for convenient beach access.

  • Outdoor pool is available on site; supplier details list one outdoor pool and a poolside bar.
  • Beach is about 1.6 miles (roughly 2 km) away — shuttle service is offered for a surcharge.
  • The hotel’s downtown position makes beach trips short by car or shuttle, not immediate beachfront access.

Proper Hotel gives easier access to the beach environment, but it is not an on-site beachfront property.

Wellness & nightlife: Spa, fitness and after-dark options

West Hollywood EDITION – Wellness & nightlife

West Hollywood EDITION pairs a Forbes Five-Star spa with a rooftop nightlife program and on-site nightclub.

  • The Spa at The West Hollywood EDITION is Forbes Five-Star, ~6,000+ sq ft with six treatment rooms and saunas.
  • Fitness center is 24-hour, complimentary, and equipped with Precor machines.
  • Nightlife includes The Roof, Lobby Bar and Sunset nightclub with late-night hours on weekends.

Edition blends high-end spa and active nightlife in the same property — good for wellness days and evening socializing.

Santa Monica Proper Hotel – Wellness & nightlife

Santa Monica Proper Hotel emphasizes spa and wellness programming alongside quieter downtown evenings.

  • Supplier listing indicates a full-service spa offering massages; reservations required for treatments.
  • Fitness classes and on-site fitness facilities are noted among amenities.

Proper Hotel appeals to guests who want wellness services plus a more relaxed evening rhythm near the beach.
