Hotel Shangri-La Bio

Hotel Shangri-La is an architectural gem and iconic landmark on the Pacific Ocean in Santa Monica, California. It is a beacon of Art Deco beauty, Hollywood allure, and Los Angeles history, with expansive ocean views from every room.

Built in 1939, Hotel Shangri-La is a quintessential example of Streamline Moderne architecture. For decades, the Hotel Shangri-La has been a popular hideaway for guests ranging from presidents and luminaries to movie stars, artists, tastemakers, insiders, urbanites, and world travelers.

Located in the heart of Santa Monica, Hotel Shangri-La is a luxury boutique retreat just steps from the sand.

Walking distance to the Santa Monica Pier, premium shopping, and world-class restaurants, Hotel Shangri-La is only 20 minutes from Los Angeles International Airport, minutes from the Santa Monica Airport, and a short drive from some of Los Angeles' most coveted attractions, including Malibu Beach, the Getty Center & Villa, and Rodeo Drive.

In October 2008, Hotel Shangri-La will reopen after a $30 million refurbishment– the first renovation in more than 20 years. The new look will embody key elements of the original design of the era while bringing it into the 21st Century with a contemporary twist.

The full-service hotel will include 71 rooms & suites (an increase of 17 rooms), a lush courtyard with elevated pool and cabanas, social dining restaurant, lavish suites, and posh rooftop bar.

Each room & suite will be restored and modernized to include high-speed Internet connections, premium sound systems and more. The ideal balance of past, present, and future, Hotel Shangri-La is the idyllic destination for the discerning traveler looking for something inviting, luxurious, experiential and enduring.
