Hotel MDR Marina del Rey- a DoubleTree by Hilton

An eleven-story waterfront tower above Marina del Rey's small-craft harbor, this four-star DoubleTree anchors the marina's south basin with direct views over docked sailboats rather than the open Pacific.

Rooms above the fourth floor face either the harbor or the marina's inner channel; corner rooms add small balconies. The property sits roughly two miles from Venice Beach's boardwalk and about four miles from LAX, useful for travelers wanting coastal quiet without airport-district noise.

A waterfront path connects directly to Fisherman's Village restaurants without crossing traffic.
