Today’s post is the first of a recent trip to California. The first stop was in Santa Monica, which is a place that I have been before and love! We stayed at the Georgian Hotel, which is an iconic hotel right across from the beach in Santa Monica. It is an historic art deco building and painted the prettiest colour ever! I am sure you have seen it if you have visited Santa Monica before.
This trip was with my friend Joelle Friend because it is always more fun traveling with friends!
Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica
The Georgian Hotel is a historic boutique hotel located in Santa Monica, California. Built in 1933, the Georgian Hotel is an iconic landmark that has been designated as a Santa Monica Historical Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The hotel boasts stunning Art Deco architecture, elegant decor, and breathtaking ocean views.
The Georgian Hotel has welcomed many notable guests throughout its history, including Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Whether you’re visiting Santa Monica for business or pleasure, the Georgian Hotel offers a one-of-a-kind experience that blends timeless elegance with modern amenities. It is also pet friendly!
We stayed in a suite at the Georgian Hotel with an epic ocean view. It had a bedroom that was separated from the main space and just perfect for our girls trip.
We were there in April and the weather was just perfect every day. As soon as we checked in we changed into our suits and went to the beach.
Santa Monica Pier
The Georgian Hotel is also right across from the Santa Monica Pier, too. There are a lot of great photo opportunities waiting there for you, so it is a must see if you go to Santa Monica. It is a lot of fun day or night.
The End of the Trail Route 66 sign is a must take photo opportunity. Route 66, known as the “Main Street of America,” was one of the original highways in the U.S. highway, running from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California. The begin Route 66 sign can be found at the intersection of Adams Street and Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago.
I love the lifeguard stands all along the beach in Santa Monica. Once again, they make a great photo opportunity. My friend Elliott Dunning took this favourite photo for me while I was there.
The sunsets can be amazing, so make sure you are at the beach for that each evening.
Our room at the Georgian Hotel looked right out onto the ocean. It was an amazing view to wake up to each day!
A super special shout-out to Jenny Megenney for these photos! I can’t wait to take more soon!
The Veranda restaurant at the Georgian Hotel is a must visit as it has beautiful ocean views to take in while you eat.
If you are ever heading to Santa Monica, make sure you check out the Georgian Hotel which is right across from the Santa Monica Pier.
