The Kinney was a fantastic place to stay near Venice Beach! The location is perfect, and our room was clean, comfortable, and incredibly spacious. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and professional. We also loved the extra amenities—the pool area, ping-pong tables, and outdoor lounge were wonderful additions to our stay. Highly recommend!

Always a serviceable, lively stay at the Kinney. I'm always here for business so haven't had a moment to use the lovely pool and hot tub, I can see the guests enjoying themselves - couples, solo travelers, and families. Location, staff, grounds all provide excellent value. I'd say you don't get what you pay for. You get more than that at the Kinney

Wonderful rooms that are clean! Staff and housekeeping takes good care of you during your stay. The amenities are worth it! When I had some downtime, i laid back on the hammock and relaxed. Parking is $38/night but it is so worth it. I felt safe that my car was tucked in the garage. The drive to Santa Monica is about 20 minutes away. My sisters and I stayed here for the BTS concert at Sofi stadium, which was also a 20 min drive. To get to LAX, it’s only 10 minutes! I’d stay at this location again.

What a charming hotel! It’s very “Venicey”. Very thoughtful staff, immaculate room, comfy bed and great towels! I would just recommend that the carpet near the elevators be replaced when possible. I will definitely stay here again….and look forward to my return. Thank you Kinney staff for being so sweet and accommodating!

The property itself was very cute. Loved the hammocks and stuff around the property for you to lay out and look at the stars. I will say I paid extra for a King (boardwalk) thinking that meant I would have a view of the boardwalk. But was given a queen room I’m pretty sure, as me and my partner both kept thinking this was way smaller then our bed at home. And a room with a view of the hammocks. This property is not even close enough to the boardwalk to see it from any room in the hotel. So I am upset about the upcharge for that. And there was some black mold in the shower but very little. Overall it was a good stay still and we would ultimately stay here again if we were in the area again. Parking costs are outrageous at almost $40 a night but we chose to do street parking and had no issue with that during our stay.

We didn’t enjoy our stay at the Kinney. We were scheduled for two nights but ended up adjusting our reservation to one. The change is likely more a reflection of what we want in a hotel versus anything wrong with this hotel. Pros: staff was great and helpful with our change request. Property had a “cool” vibe with the hammocks and ping pong tables, etc. Shower was great. Cons: it’s an old hotel that has been redesigned but not really updated. Small rooms, tight spaces. We were there during a heat wave but the ac didn’t really keep up with cooling the room. Pool area was very small and limited/no pool chairs. The hotel is fine, for us we prefer a bit more space and I guess just a newer built hotel. I think the hotel shows a lot better in pictures than what it does while you’re there.

Lovely clean large room, well equipped but could do with some sound insulation on the window as road noise at night is quite loud. Pool area really well maintained & clean. Would recommend to anyone as long as you drive or don’t mind a walk to the beach
