Gjelina Hotel

the location, the design, the staff, the room, the vibes were all top tier. If i have to nitpick, there were two things that i would have to mention. If i were entitled id throw a fit, since i am not, i hope that these are only things to be mindful of. If i had another visit to Venice Beach I would definitely stay here again frfr. With that being said… 1) if you happen to rent a car, there is no dedicated on-site parking. It was a really a non-issue, but you may spend an extra 3-5 minutes finding parking. As a solution that has probably already been thought of, I would like it if there was a valet service that collaborated with a local parking area/structure. Additionally, having a space to load-unload that is primarily reserved for Gjellina patrons would make the arrival process slightly easier. Street parking is really easy to find. If you can navigate a Traders Joes parking lot, venice beach parking is a no brainer. 2) the humidity outside is the humidity inside. Maybe i was doing something wrong. There is excellent ventilation, but my swim shorts never really dried. Still a non issue, they were dry enough. IRRRregardless, i highly recommend staying here. The staff is friendly, the welcome cookie is fire, and there a lot of little things that are worth discovering yourself. And dudegirlbrosis, the location?!!! Nothings beats it. Also, beware of coming here for beach music festivals, the city might cancel them because of “weather” and not ticket sales.

Very chic property. Beautifully designed. Very Lo fi hip. Don’t hesitate to book it.

Lovely stay, so peaceful and quiet! Will return!

My stay at Gjelina surpassed all expectations. A lovely escape for my 50th birthday and so worth the extra splurge on the King Suite with a bathtub. The room so well curated, the view perfect. An overall memorable stay. Thank you!!

I feel like we did not receive the best experience as when we were leaving we over heard a new guest being told where their restaurant was and a voucher to use. We had not been told this in the 4 nights we stayed so that was a bit disappointing. Overall it was a nice hotel with limited facilities in line with a 2 star but they cleaned our room every day which was very nice. The bed was not as comfortable as I would like but this is very personal but I got to sleep nevertheless. You are on the beach in a short walk and it is very well located. The room is very small but very nicely decorated.
