The Vurpillat Beachfront Hotel

Good

Rooms are clean. Staff is very helpful. Nothing like website. Not worth the price.

Amazing historical hotel right on the beach in Hermosa. Nothing else out there like this 100-year-old hotel. Wake up to the sun shining off the beach. Go to sleep listening to the surf. Beautiful room with ocean breezes blowing through. Spacious. Tasteful. Lovely.

Can't beat the location on the strand. Owner greeted me personally and took good care of me with parking permit and later checkout. They were in process of renovating so you can tell they are working to keep it clean and nice. Make sure to get parking permit before you pay for a meter!

The building is infront of the beach but there’s no working AC or cold fridge. The beds are super comfortable, staff was friendly and had great recommendations. Very laid back.

The room is okay for family but atleast they could've maintain the cleanliness especially the bathroom, the kitchen. I have to scrub the bathroom my self because the stain of the toilet was there. But anyway thank you. I don't usually comment or anything like this but i dont think it's fair for the price specially the sanitation of the room.

The staff and room were great, I'd like if they had a ceiling fan in the room. It's close to everything and that is nice

The location is awesome for access.

Parking is a little inconvenient but we loved the property and the location, and the room facing the ocean was amazing.

I loved this place! Just know it’s over 100 years old and almost everything is original. So if you are looking for glam that’s a definite no, but looking for history, it’s amazing.

Hallways used for tenant storage. Street parking only. With permit.

Loved how close to the beach and restaurants it was! The only thing I really didn’t like was there was no screens in the windows in the room. So we got bug bites..

Exceptional

This place was incredibly relaxing , had a great stay with my daughter she enjoyed it being so close to the beach we played All morning with the beach toys the lend you it was so nice staff was also very friendly and I was able to find parking nearby .

Location can’t be beat. Desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Appreciated the beach chairs, towels and sunscreen they had to share. Appreciated the vintage charm, however they need to keep working on updates. No screens on windows was an issue. Also, there were no hooks anywhere in the room to hang towels (shower towels, or beach towels). Parking was also an issue- we were supposed to get a pass for free meter parking but they didn’t have any to offer so we were constantly shuffling cars in their side lot.

I never saw the person who runs it although they were responsive to texts and seemed pleasant in exchanges. Overall it is a no-frills, older structure that is very unique in its spot right on the beach in Hermosa. That is its great charm-it's location. Really wonderful location. I imagine at another time when it isn't under renovation, and with an owner or manager on the property to service the guests experience it woudl be different. I love the idea of old-school properties with apartment/hotel characteristics so I root for this spot. I just wouldn't stay here again until I was sure of its' conditions and on cooler days.

The Vurpillat Beachfront Hotel is a true gem in Hermosa Beach. The location is perfect because you are on the beach and a few steps from all the restaurants and shops. My family and I enjoyed our room -the bed was so comfortable and cozy! The staff is beyond friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend anyone to stay here whether it will be a family, friends, or romantic getaway.

A quaint mid century bldg with modernized rooms. Nice view from my room even though it was minimized in the original description. It’s right on the Strand and easy walk to ocean or Pier. Very attentive staff on check in and an overall great experience.

Excellent staff Beach view

We loved it here! The staff were amazing! The location is as advertised; We could walk to restaurants and bars. We will be back!
