In addition, the entrance to the PCH is nearby for convenient hops up to Malibu or a connection to the 10 freeway into downtown and Hollywood.

The ViceRoy is perfect if you plan to stay only on the westside, Santa Monica, Brentwood or Venice during the work days as well as if you are seeking easy access to Malibu. There are no drug stores or convenient marts within walking distance of the hotel, so driving will be necessary if in need of these goods.
