About

Ellison Suites - Los Angeles

Ellison Suites is a 3-star boutique hotel tucked into a quiet corner of Venice Beach, Los Angeles. With just seven rooms, it offers an intimate, design-led alternative to the area's larger hotels. The rooms come with parquet floors, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, while many enjoy sea views and city outlooks.

Guests consistently mention the hotel's excellent location — a six-minute walk from General Admission, close to Venice Beach's boardwalk and a short drive or stroll from Santa Monica Pier. Breakfast is served in the courtyard or on the rooftop, and the small scale means staff can give personal attention. It's a straightforward, comfortable base for exploring the beach and the surrounding upscale neighbourhood.
