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.

A hidden gem just a...

Liked: Not only is the location of this property absolutely perfect (especially for the price) just meters from Venice Beach ocean walk patch, the friendly staff, incredibly comfortable beds & tasty breakfast treats make it a truly special spot to visit. It's recently refurbished and the added touches to speak to it's heritage are just gorgeous. It's truly a hidden gem.
Disliked: Rooms are slightly small, however they have maximized every bit of space, making the rooms cosy & comfortable! But with the location, who's spending much time in their room.

Disappointed that I couldn’t enjoy...

Liked: The staff was great and very accommodating.
Disliked: Parking was ridiculous. There was no onsite parking. It was a waste of time driving around trying to find a spot. Since I couldn’t find parking I didn’t end up staying. I had to go find a different hotel that had parking!

A wonderful experience for the...

Liked: My daughter and our two dogs came from Flagstaff, AZ for a two night stay and had such a wonderful experience. J and the team were so sweet and loved our dogs. They helped us without even having to ask with our luggage. Breakfast was fresh and great coffee. We stayed in suite 21, which was equipped with everything we needed! Even fresh bread gets delivered to your suite. The decor of the suite and all the live plants around the hotel were stunning and creative! We had a partial ocean view but the entire upstairs allows for full view. We will definitely be coming back and thank you for having us!
Disliked: Nothing to unlike!

Amazing stay! Great location, great...

Liked: The location, the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the rooms and common areas.We stayed here twice (in between stays we went to Hawaii) to celebrate our honeymoon and in our first stay we were given a complimentary room upgrade to one of the suites, which was great and we are really thankful for. The room was fantastic and had everything we need! On our second stay we were given the room type we booked for and, although smaller than the previous one, it was very comfortable and clean, which we really appreciated.Thank you for everything, it was an amazing stay and we hope to come back some day :)
Disliked: Although the breakfast was very delicious (the croissant), there is not much variety for breakfast. It’s not a big deal though, just a little room for improvement. Other than this, everything was perfect!

Luxurious and friendly.

Liked: Beautiful decorated, very comfortable and perfect location close to the beach but away from the crowds. Our 2 top favourites would be the rooftop balcony and the amazing staff who were super friendly and couldn't do enough for you.
Disliked: Could only have been improved by having a fridge and coffee maker in the room and maybe a little more choice of pastries at breakfast.
