Welcome to our hostel
Are you a group planning to discover the delights of LA? Then this is the hostel for you! Because the HI-Santa Monica offers you all the attractions of this amazing city as well as being just a five minute walk away from white sand beaches.
With regular bus services from the front door of the hostel, the key LA destinations are easily accessible. Want to see Hollywood? Then hop on the bus! Want to see Disneyland? Then there is a bus for here too. And what’s more there is also a bus direct from the airport, making this an easy option for groups to get to.
Most groups to the HI-Santa Monica take advantage of the volunteer-run programmes which are on offer here. Join up with the walking tour and find out all about the local area with an insider. Or how about just staying in and watching a movie? Because there is a film night every evening at this hostel which is free for guests to attend.
Santa Monica is a great place for groups to explore. Used as a backdrop in a number of films such as Oceans 11, Forrest Gump and Iron Man, there are many locations you will be familiar with. (It was also the home to Baywatch). Don’t miss a visit to the Pier and Harbour where the carousel has been named as a National Historic Landmark. And for those looking to ‘shop til they drop’, then the pedestrianised 3rd Street Promenade (just a few blocks from the hostel) is a retail paradise waiting to be discovered.
With a generous free breakfast and large lockers for storage, groups who have stayed at the HI-Santa Monica have said that they would return again.
So if you are looking to discover this part of California, then using the HI-Santa Monica as a base would be a great choice. Make an enquiry at the hostel today.
