About this property

Sonder The Beacon | Queen Room

Across the street from Santa Monica Beach, The Beacon, built in 1928, transports you back to Old Hollywood. Lounge in an art deco cabana and dip your toes in the hot tub. Catch a Pacific sunset while sipping a tropical drink from rooftop bar, The Coco Club. Through the lobby, Layla features delicious Middle Eastern dishes and elevated cocktails in a stylish setting. It's your stay for relaxation. Each room features modern amenities with a classic touch — soaking bathtubs for winding down and a Roku TV to binge your latest series. Downstairs, the fitness room has free weights and treadmills. You'll have several hiking options nearby, like Los Liones Canyon Trail. Play classic carnival games on the Santa Monica Pier, or ride the only solar-powered Ferris wheel in the world. Endless food options are nearby, starting with the locally sourced catch of the day at The Albright. From sunny beaches and state parks to Downtown LA, The Beacon has it all.

Our top-floor rooms are located under a late-night bar, so you might hear a bit of nightlife buzz. We've installed earplugs and white noise machines to help you sleep, but if you're a light sleeper, another room may be more suitable.
Use the Sonder app to navigate your stay from start to finish. Check in. Request amenities. Connect to WiFi. Contact customer support. All via our small (but mighty) app. Whatever you need, we’ve got you covered.

This Sonder has a front desk which is staffed 24/7. Our on-site team is available to ensure you have a better stay.

We have multiple spaces at this property, each designed to give you a beautiful place to stay — while our style is consistent, the view, layout, and design may vary.

Guests can book housekeeping services on-demand for a nominal fee. This ensures you can enjoy an uninterrupted and environmentally sustainable stay. Housekeeping services must be scheduled via the Sonder app, 24 hours in advance.
Home Truths
You may hear construction noise from renovations on the elevator and late-night noise from the rooftop bar. White noise machines and earplugs are available upon request. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Stay

Small, noisy, nothing really offered for basically an overpriced hotel room. Pay extra for early check in and for the amount paid parking should had been included. $50 a night is a rip off. But my fault I should have researched it better.
