The Spotlight on Gjelina Hotel

Relaxed Beachside Vibes Just Minutes from the Music

Modern and effortlessly cool, Gjelina Hotel puts you right in the heart of Venice Beach, just a short walk from both Venice and Santa Monica Beaches. With its breezy coastal style and boutique feel, this 4-star hotel is perfect for travelers looking to soak up the sun by day and dive into LA’s music scene by night. Rooms are air-conditioned, comfortable, and come with free WiFi and private bathrooms — ideal for recharging after a night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a quick ride to some of LA’s most iconic venues, while still enjoying a peaceful retreat by the beach. The hotel’s flexible, multilingual reception makes late arrivals and spontaneous plans easy. While it’s close to the action, the surrounding area is famously laid-back — perfect for unwinding post-show. Plus, with Los Angeles International Airport only 5.6 miles away, getting in and out is a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends who want a stylish base near Venice nightlife
- Solo travelers catching a dream show and looking to explore the coast
- Couples making a weekend of music, beach walks, and sunset views
- Fans craving a quieter recovery spot away from the city buzz
- Budget-conscious music lovers who still want a boutique experience

Food and Drink Options

Gjelina Hotel keeps things simple but satisfying. A continental breakfast is available, ideal for late risers recovering from concerts. The on-site snack bar offers light bites and drinks, and the Venice neighborhood is packed with walkable options, from casual tacos to upscale dining — many of which stay open late.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself leans chill, you’re steps from Venice’s buzzing bar scene and a short ride to Santa Monica’s livelier lounges and live music spots. Grab a local craft beer at a nearby beachside pub or catch a DJ set just down the boardwalk.

What People Say

Guests love the location — just minutes from the beach and a short drive to major venues. Reviews praise the hotel’s clean, modern rooms, friendly multilingual staff, and the overall relaxed atmosphere. It's a favorite for travelers who want to mix music, beach time, and Venice charm.

Areas for Improvement

The 10:30 AM checkout might feel a little early after a late night out, so plan accordingly. There's no full-service restaurant on-site, but with so many local eateries nearby, most guests don’t mind.

The Bottom Line

Gjelina Hotel is the perfect Venice Beach base for concert-goers who want a stylish, low-key stay near both live music and the ocean.

Exceptional

Liked: I recently stayed at Gjelina in Los Angeles and overall, it was a unique and memorable experience. The design is effortlessly chic minimalist, earthy, and very much in line with the Venice aesthetic. If you’re someone who appreciates subtle luxury and a boutique vibe, this place will likely impress you.

Disappointing

Disliked: We chose this hotel because of the good reviews and its appearance, however, we were deeply disappointed. First of all, during our honeymoon, they showed us no attention at all. The room was tiny and completely interior, with a window that couldn't be opened and faced a wall, allowing no natural light to enter. The included breakfast is a lie; they only give you a terrible coffee and a croissant.Plus, as soon as you arrive, they hold a $100 deposit on your card, which I still haven't gotten back, and it's been several days. Anyway, look for another option in Santa Monica; there are much better ones.

I'd upgrade for one of...

Liked: Style, location, staff, vibe
Disliked: The acoustics. I didn't really enjoy a good nights sleep. Very thin walls, lots of noise from the main corridor and from the water when other visitors take a shower or use the bathroom.
