Unfortunately, Hotel Erwin put us in rooms adjacent to the 6th floor elevator.

The issue with this is they use one of the two elevators.

From the moment I stepped into the “lobby”, it was inundated with drunk loud people squeezing into a tiny elevator to get to the rooftop bar.

There’s only one elevator which causes a backup in the lobby, I ended up using the stairs.

The door for the bathroom could do with being fixed in properly and having only one lift and with the roof terrace being very popular does make it sometimes a wait!

but the same guy who won't let you in the door without a mask will gladly put you at the end of a line of 20 hipsters to squeeze into a 6 person elevator with no concern for social distancing.

They aren't the ones who have to share the *single* small elevator with unmasked people.

The only negatives I can say would be the water pressure in the shower was terrible.Also in the evenings the elevator is backed up when the rooftop bar is open.

One elevator for 6 flight hotel was not ideal with Covid

Only one elevator services this hotel, and a long, slow line awaits. you.

Many rooms and only one elevator - not a problem

Btw, there’s only ONE elevator for the whole hotel.

Took almost 10 min to get my elevator, that sort of thing.

The one elevator gets jammed with people trying to access their rooms.

Also, there is only one elevator - which takes everyone up to the bar.

It is THE slowest elevator I've ever been in.

Only other thing and especially on the weekend, the elevator situation is a bit of a disaster.

Venice Beach itself was great for the family - safe and fun.

Fun robes in the walk in closet and a lovely balcony to take in the fresh air.

Super fun and refreshing vibes, great views and very friendly and accommodating staff.

The hotel has a fun breakfast place - great place to grab coffee, small bites and get some work done.

The best ever location for the sea, the sunsets, famous Venice Boardwalk, the canals so many fun neighborhoods and Abbot Kinney for shopping!

The sights are amazing and it is a true reprieve from the craziness of Venice Beach down below, Absolutely worth stopping by for a couple of drinks and some fun photos.

Hotel Erwin made our stay in Venice a super fun one!

We also had lots of fun waking up beachfront (literally), and walking right out to the beautiful view.

Who knew this fun filled weekend going down memory lane would led to a proposal!

Worth every penny for the stay, the location made it fun and the team made it unforgettable.

Loved the proximity to Venice Beach Boardwalk and the fun things in this area.

The hotel is modern and fun, comfortable beds, great balcony to enjoy watching the sunsets, fantastic Byrd toiletries that smell soooo good!

Just three things above all about the service, the terrace over the beach is really amazing at the sunset and sunrise and it’s exlusively for hotel guests, second thing is the free bike provided by the hotel which allowed us to go to Santa Monica Pier and back having a lot of fun; third, location!

So many cute restuarants and cafés near by that were really trendy and fun.

Just the little things like that make the trip that much more fun.

The hotel was really noisy in the evening, whether it was the rooftop bar or the speakeasy across the street, the place just wore me down.

But these rooms were awful due to the noise pollution.

We only had one night in LA before leaving on an international trip and were determined not to spend it in traffic.

I mean, I could hear every sound from the couple next door.

At the rooftop, the DJ was so loud the hostess couldn't hear us.

We were worried at first, being able to hear people in the hallway while in our room,

Every night I was woken up by drunk people shouting down the corridor on my floor.

During the week, we had the "joy" of waking up every morning to excessive noise at 7am due to the garbage pick ups in the alley.

I still can’t believe it goes till 11pm on Sunday and people are expected to be ok with their rooms pulsing from the sound.

We didn't have any complimentary water in our room, the carpet felt yucky, like a college doorm room after a party and the noise outside from the vendors was pretty loud.

All the hallways smelled like smoke, the room was on par with an inexpensive motel room, and very noisy due to the rooftop bar and late night music outside.

Besides that, I had constant trouble getting the fan in my room to work because it wrongly thought that my balcony door was opened.

There is a constant line at the lobby to get to the bar on the rooftop and it's a hassle to get into the hotel.

I don't recommend the hotel for young families unless you just care about walking to beach and don't mind some noise if staying on the weekend.

I just have a few picky complaints that apparently they hear quite a lot.

We were then woken by a piercing fire alarm at 2am - someone had set it off somehow and luckily no fire or evacuation

The location is great for the night life too bad my husband and I are a little old for shaking our tail feathers.

The hotel delivers on all fronts - great rooftop bar, big rooms (go for the Epic Sea View room on L6), perfect location and very friendly service.

High at the Erwin Hotel is an Amazing roof top bar in Venice Beach.

They did appear to want to keep the rooftop bar area tidy as they were up there scraping the floor at just after 7am on Sunday morning… brilliant.

The hotel has a roof top bar and one should definitely visit the same to have good drinks and enjoy an amazing view.

Great location and the rooftop bar is a great place to relax (though the cocktails weren’t to my taste - a little too strong.

Rooftop bar was nice with great food and ocean views.

The best coffee in LA and the rooftop bar is best view.

Really enjoyed the ambiance of the rooftop bar/restaurant.

The rooftop is very popular and has a reverse happy hour, people are constantly coming in just for the rooftop bar.

Excellent hotel with an amazing roof top bar, wonderful location, and a very accommodating staff.

The roof top bar offers an outstanding view and is a must.

We had a reservation at the Rooftop bar for a group to scout the location for a larger party the following weekend.

I really enjoyed their rooftop bar, lounge - great place to grab cocktails at sunsent.

Lovely views from the 6th floor and the rooftop bar is amazing.

I have stayed at the Hotel Erwin before and really enjoyed my stay, from the hip comfort of the room design, to the amazing scented shower products, to the rooftop bar.

Hotel Erwin has been a fav for years just because of its rooftop bar, High.

Rooftop bar is also a perfect place to take in the sunset and have a few drinks.

Also loved the rooftop bar and Venice Pizza.

Hotel has a rooftop bar that has the best views and atmosphere.

The location is perfect for a stroll at the beach, a short drive to Santa Monica, and a few minutes walk to Abbot Kinney.

You can borrow them for up to 4 hours at a time, and the bike bath between Venice and Santa Monica is awesome.

As first timers to the LA area, being able to walk/bike (bikes are free to use with your stay) to so many great locations (Santa Monica, Abbot Kinney Boulevard, shops, restaurants, etc) was incredible.

Also, loved Venice Beach and Santa Monica - great place for my daughter and I to stay.

Hotel is close to Venice beach and not far from Santa Monica.

Sure, there are fancier hotels in Santa Monica and Marina Del Rey,

You are also about 45 minutes from Disneyland and 10 minutes from a ton of shops and restaurants in Santa Monica.

Stay in Santa Monica - much better value for the dollar.

but it is clean, pleasant and convenient to Santa Monica and the beach area suburbs.

First time in Venice/Santa Monica and already making plans to come back!

The location was perfect for us, I travelled with my two kids who were in a surf camp in Santa Monica all day while I worked, we commuted to the camp via the beach bike trail with the free bikes at the hotel (we brought kids bikes which the hotel stored for free safely in their garage).

I want to start by pointing out this is a legit review---we had friends visiting from Europe, and wanted to bring them to Venice/Santa Monica/LA.

We rented the Bird scooters and drove to Santa Monica at night for dinner and the Pier.

Close enough to get a cab to Santa Monica if you wish.

They offer good food and nice sofas with a view of Venice and Santa Monica.

No better way to enjoy Venice Beach than to take a bike ride from the hotel to Santa Monica.

The life of the boardwalk parade moving north, pulls your eye to the horizon upon which sits the Santa Monica Ferris wheel.

I was lucky to experience good weather so I took one of the hotel bikes and easily got to Santa Monica and its attractions as well Venice and the canals.

The rooftop bar is amazing, with probably the best rooftop view of any of the hotels in the area (even Santa Monica) given its location.

The free drink upon check-in 'the Grinch' was also very tasty lol The rooftop had a great view and overall the experience was very vibey.

I've stayed in 30 different hotels this year and this was my best experience by far.

I have never experienced such quality and generous service from a hotel!

I can honestly say he helped me with everything bikes, food, drinks, and just all around hospitality.

A huge shout out to Miguel, Shane and Misha for their hospitality.

This was my first stay at the Hotel Erwin, and what a great experience.

I'm used to sub-par hotel experiences in Venice so this one took me by surprise, in a good way.

12/10 experience and I can't wait to visit again soon. Xx

The roof top experience has been a desire.

Had the best staycation at Hotel Erwin and the entire experience was really wonderful.

clean, great experience, not bad guys, not bad at all.

but what makes an experience is the hospitality/customer service you receive.

Potentially horrific experience Airbnb experience down the street averted.

Miguel‘s warmth and hospitality makes you feel at home.

Miguel's hospitality skills were above what we expected.

Let me tell you, the room, the view, the experience was just amazing.

staying experience

Be prepared to heat up the old Visa card,

The manager double charged us for a mistake he made and kept the keys to my brother's car.

Our rooms were paid for in advance and yet they took £1000 on our card as a deposit which they have yet to pay back ( over 5 wks ago)   despite many phone calls!

1)I stay 5 days in the hotel , and after they charge me they told me that I will only have 1 or 2 days of housekeeping service  

2) the refrigerator in the rooms does not cool, it only refreshes, That is what they told me in the lobby and it was indeed like that, the refrigerator in the room does not work

Bad attention , and the hotel is not clean ! 😕

but it has clearly hit rock bottom during CoVid, as even basics of Hospitality 1.0 are not there anymore: no breakfast, no pool, no gym, no in-room dining, no more room charge at the restaurant at night (what the point vs Covid???

Oh and if you wanted more then two cups of your in-room coffee they charged you.

but I don’t hit the stars for them: they didn’t do our room service, our reservation on the rooftop was messed up and they don’t charge to the room for the bill there, the minibar in the room is ridiculously pricey- like seriously bad.

If you use more than 2 pods they charge you $2 a pod.

Beware of hidden charges and a staff that steals!

They simply shouldn’t charge what they do for rooms in such poor shape.

I had an issue with my credit card at check.

Another annoyance was the $400 hold placed on our credit card for incidentals after the front desk staff member stated there was only going to be a $150 hold.

I had simply forgotten to unlock my credit card in the United States.

I needed to cancel my four days reservation because my father was hospitalized in my Home country and they even charge a penalty for not cancelling 24hs in Advance.

I ended up paying with the credit card, as advised up to today the 700 usd diference have not been reversed on my account, this policy screwd up my trip.

I gave my credit card and asked the front desk to charge another card at the end.

but parking definitely is a problem in Beverly Hills so i can understand why the hotel charges that fee.

One potential criticism is that the bathroom and full-length mirror are a bit on the dark side.

There was a magnified 'make-up' mirror that only had the dark setting so that was no help.

but they fixed it and room was still very dark.

It's so dark even with the lights on I can hardly find the soap.

The big downside was that the room was super super dark, both because of the room decor, the lack of natural sunlight and the choice of lighting.

The room we stayed in at first was not renovated and extremely dark and small.

Room and hotel lobby area very dark and just lacked atmosphere.

Reception is dark and dingy and the staff there are a mixed bunch, some clueless

The room was very small and ridiculously dark, with one small rectangular window, and a bathroom with practically no counter space.

Our hair is dark brown so it could not belong to us.

Room was very dark and overall lighting was poor.

Hotel: The exterior is deigned in timeless Beige/Sand color and the unmistakable floor to ceiling dark windows.

We found the service level uninspired at best and the room dark in its weak attempt to be slick.

The room was so dark even with all the lights turned on.

Stepping into the elevator, which was dark with padded walls, I felt as

The lighting was awful and very dark, probably to mask the dirt.

Rooms are so dark you can’t use the mirrors - had to take a small mirror on the balcony.

I did use the gym one morning, it was dark and small

In an attempt to be modern the design is very dark, and not very attractive.

We ordered pizza's (and fresh coconut water) and ate them on the patio there one night which was fun!

I go to L.A. pretty often and staying at the Sixty was fun and convenient.

The restaurant is delicious and has a fun atmosphere.

Pool bar was extravagant, relaxing and fun.

My sisters were in town for the weekend and we hit up this bougie, relaxed, fun spot for brunch.

He made brunch so much better and brought such a fun and joyful energy!

His recommendations exceeded our expectations, he brought us free shots and really went above and beyond to make our time at Ella so much fun!

We were drawn in by Ella’s ambiance and eclectic fun decor,

Great crowd and we had so much fun at Brunch.

Michael, one of their fantastic concierges, was so helpful and fun.

Great use of space with plenty of guest space and attentive staff, with a fun pool portal window below at nearby easily accessible and clean restrooms.

Would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun afternoon !

There seemed to be a DJ all day on the weekends and the people watching is fun.

Our family checked into Sixty Hotel July 14th for a week of fun in LA!

The hotel was fun and had such a great roof top.

When I asked if they could let someone from DoorDash up to the elevator because I’m not leaving my child nor am I disturbing other guests, they also said no.

A couple things could be improved though: 
- the room was located next to an electrical cabinet, it was quite noisy for the first evening

I went over and he man started screaming extremely loud that he was hotel security to open the door.

We could not hear our very noisy neighbors and they didn’t hear us as well.

The only downside is avoid the rooms with an adjoining door, you can hear everything, even when your neighbour is quietly talking on the phone -please re-design this!!

I checked into the hotel on Monday (21st of March) and had called in advance from London to make sure I could have a quite room as I knew jet lag is bad for a few days for me and am here for work so won't have much time during the day for naps!

Issue is that we called down to get hypoallergenic replacements and didn’t hear back for an hour (midnight by now which is tough with two young kids).

No restaurant, no room service, slow Internet, rooms are not sound proof and you hear everything.

Marks and stains on sheets, floors and corners full of dust and grime, loud noises from the street and within hotel, all the furnishings were beat up with scuff marks.

Only issue was the walls are paper thin and you could hear your neighbor pretty clearly (and this is just with normal speaking volume too).

The down side is that it’s a little noisy -

The room itself was also extremely noisy because of the air conditioning duct going through it, which I can’t imagine is solvable, and is seemingly a design flaw.

When I called the front desk they sent maintenance up and said they had no idea what the noises could be.

The fan/ac made annoying noises throughout the evening.

but very loud with street noise, even on a higher floor.

There was building work going on in the building opposite which was very noisy from around 8am & there's also extensive roadworks taking place at the moment so bear in mind as it does get very noisy.

No soundproofing to the outside though, continual traffic noise, neighboring a/c units etc

As I'm writing this, the bedside light just burned out, adding to the comedy of errors. On top of all this, there's no coffee makers in the rooms and they only offer coffee in the lobby from 5-7 a.m. (are you awake at 5 a.m. on your vacation?)

We booked this hotel to be close to Rodeo drive and it didn’t disappoint.

In The perfect location near Rodeo Drive and the Beverly Wilshire.

Friendly staff, fantastic location and within walking distance to Rodeo Drive and associated shopping/dining attractions.

the hotel is awesome best views and location just near rodeo drive and all the restaurants.

Great location, you are walking distance from Rodeo Drive.

The sixty is a trendy LA hotel close to Rodeo drive so you expect a certain kind of clientele.

The location is walking distance to Rodeo drive and the Beverly Hills sign - just a few minutes walk.

The hotel is located right near Rodeo Dr and is a great part of LA to be in.

My family and I stayed at this location in May 2021 - nice location which is walking distance to Rodeo Drive as well as many restaurants.

although many uber drivers can't find the entrance (I suggest you meet them on the corner), it's in the ideal spot - walking distance to Rodeo Drive and Saks Fifth Avenue.

Located within close walking distance to Rodeo Drive and South Beverly Drive with great food and shopping options.

Close to great restaurants and cafes, and is only a short walking distance to Rodeo Drive.

Also great location - walking distance to Rodeo Drive and if you forgot any necessities there’s a 24hr rite aid a few blocks away.

The place is cool and is located in Beverly Hills near Rodeo Drive so you can walk around and find stores and restaurants at walking distance which is a luxury in LA where you have to use a car  for almost everything.

Most people probably stay here due to the hotel’s proximity to Rodeo Drive and most of the other tourist attractions in Los Angeles.

Though it was in a convenient location (walking distance to Rodeo Drive), I will not recommend this property.

the hotel is well located right near rodeo drive.

Will definitely stay again at this hotel, close to Rodeo Drive, shopping malls and generally everything you need in LA.

Great rooftop bar with a view and excellent craft cocktails.

Cool ambience, awesome staff, the rooftop bar and pool is a quiet and incredible find.

The rooftop bar and pool area were an absolute highlight for us.

Great service from the staff (Ambassador Nick, Tony at the rooftop bar).

Jeff, from the rooftop bar, was very thoughtful and helpful at selecting dinner.
