Many adjectives, and descriptions, paint a portrait of The Georgian Hotel–beautiful, well-run, the sun, sand and sea, luxurious, the perfect get-a-way, and so forth– and they all fit.

The Georgian Hotel inspires and defines Passion

The Georgian’s Hotel‘s dedication to Passion is what makes a stay here uniquely special. It’s ubiquitous the moment you enter the hotel, until you depart. Spending time here is an experience and a feeling at the same time.

With its cozy lobby, pictures of Santa Monica’s historic past, veranda, intimate access and view of Santa Monica’s world-class beaches, its art deco lobby, the luxurious mahogany bar, and the effort put forward into making The Georgian Hotel a premier destination resort, is the reason that the Broughton Hospitality Group boutique hotels distinguish themselves both in California, and around the world.

Here they not only meet any reasonable expectation of comfort, they define luxury and excellence.

Have you been recently thinking about a romantic getaway? Or a relaxing weekend to get away from the city while still being in the city? I found the relaxation I needed recently at my stay at The Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica to feel and know everything that makes Southern California special right at my front door.

The Georgian has it All

Built in 1933 with an art deco exterior, The Georgian Hotel is where the Hollywood of old called home. The Georgian’s rich history parallels that of early Hollywood – many famous actors and actresses have stayed here over the years. Indeed, as soon as you step into its welcoming entrance, the hospitable staff greets you warmly.

Their light and airy hallways immediately immerse you into belonging and feeling a part of Santa Monica’s seaside resort community.

After entering your room or suite, your troubles and stress are immediately left behind. My suite included a spacious living/sitting room on one side, and a gorgeous bedroom on the other– I felt right at home.

Everything at The Georgian is brand new—from its lobby, to veranda, to everything in its rooms.
For example, its richly ingrained and finished mahogany tables, desks, and wet bar, not to mention sofa, pictures, chaise lounge, and Flat Panel televisions—no detail was ignored, nor any shortcut employed. Recently, The Georgian underwent a multi-million dollar renovation to bring this magnificent art deco hotel to today’s luxury standards.

After unpacking my luggage, I went to the one room which never lies, and tells the true story of any hotel– the bathroom. If the bathroom isn’t clean and shiny, I won’t enjoy my stay. The bathroom outdid my expectations—it was spotless, delightful, and possessed a charm one doesn’t usually equate with the same. The sitting room and the bedroom had fresh crisp sheets, and had to-die-for views toward the east of Santa Monica, and on the other side, I could enjoy and see the Pacific Ocean.

The Georgian’s Veranda

After I ordered a perfect aged dry white California wine from Sonoma County from the Georgian’s full-service bar, I sat back to enjoy the ocean breeze, while the sun set over the horizon. I then leisurely sauntered toward the aqua-tinted beach’s sand, and walked across the street. I was on the beach in minutes, stepping in the moist sand. At water’s edge, I dove into the Pacific’s warm and inviting waves for a quick swim.

After my soulful foray to the beach, I returned to my suite, and took a long and relaxing bath. Of course, they supplied the necessities, which included a Rubber Ducky!

Afterward, I walked a short two blocks to the world famous Santa Monica Third Street Promenade. From that point, my potentials and possibilities for enjoyment were endless–shopping, eating, taking in the latest movie or book, and enjoying the best that Santa Monica has to offer.

After a day and night of gourmet eating, beach trotting, walking, shopping, fun, and leisure, I returned to my suite to watch a bit of television.

After watching the ocean’s sunset from my room–as the Pacific’s winds were gently blowing–I drifted to sleep with the relaxing sound of the beach’s breaking waves in the background.

Perfect Bliss

I started out the next morning true; I brewed fresh coffee from the suite’s private coffee maker. There’s no better way to start the day off than to enjoy breakfast on The Georgian’s veranda, where I ordered their world famous and signature French Toast Soufflé.

Unlike French toast that is fried, this is baked, and with a touch of maple syrup, it literally melts in your mouth.

Afterward, to plan my day, I perused my Santa Monica walking map, which displays some of the many spots and locations of interest go and do of interest. With the beach in front of me and the hotel as my anchor– I was armed, ready, and willing to enjoy my stay in town, but feeling a million miles away.
