We stayed at Hotel Hermosa in their unique two-story room with the winding staircase, and overall, it was a great experience. My daughter and niece especially loved the separation of bedrooms—it gave everyone their own space and added a fun, loft-like vibe to the stay.
The spiral staircase was definitely a cool feature and added to the room’s character, but it’s worth noting that the metal steps are a bit tricky. It’s easy to bump your head if you’re not careful. Just something to be mindful of.
The hotel itself had a relaxed, beachy atmosphere, and the location is close to the Hermosa Beach Pier, restaurants and shops. We enjoyed that the location was very walkable. Staff were friendly and check-in was smooth.
