Reviews from Our Guests

This quaint hotel has the friendliest staff and attention to detail. Fresh baked cookies every day, continental breakfast delivered to your door every morning and beautiful views! We will definitely be back soon!

Everyone was inviting and helpful, and I even got an upgrade when I checked in. A lovely surprise! I forgot my phone charger, and the front desk employee, Cisnero, let me borrow his charger. A wonderful gesture!! Thanks again to Stacey, Beth, and Cisnero for your great customer service!

The location is perfect! A 15 no more than 20 minute walk to most places. Loved that the premises were clean well and surfaces in the room were not dusty or overlooked. We received a complimentary breakfast that was delivered each morning at a time that we chose. The room itself was amazing! Panoramic view of the harbor with a balcony that did not disappoint! Right off the beach/ocean. Weather was perfect and left the balcony door open all night with the fireplace one. Spectacular view of the harbor. Sun rise over the mountains while watching the waves below. Great amount of space, comfy bed and pillows, good amount of seating areas, bathroom had enough towels for two for a two night stay. All staff that we encountered were so nice and helpful! Darren definitely went above and beyond and we are so grateful! Thanks Darren for your hospitality and the great conversation! We were sad to leave as this property was great. Definitely worth the splurge! No complaints here!

We had a top floor ocean view room that was next door to the roof hot tub. Breakfast was delicious and delivered to our room. The Inn a short walk to Cannery Row and just a bit further (25min walk) to downtown Monterey. Parking was a bit tight(narrow)

We loved Monterey Bay Inn. Have no complaints. We stayed in room 409. Staff was great, room beautiful and view even better.

We've stayed at many of the resorts and hotels in Monterey and Carmel, but this, by far, has been one of the best! The staff was most accommodating and courteous. Our room with a bay view was large and very comfortable. What a treat it was to wake up to the sound of the waves, sea birds, and yes, even seals. The best treat was ordering our complimentary breakfast the night prior, which was delivered as room service promptly at the time requested!! We enjoyed our boiled eggs, yogurts, fruits and pastries, coffee and juices out on our balcony on a sunny morning. We will certainly be returning to this gem along the Monterey Bay!

We stayed here the week after Thanksgiving in an Ocean View room that was spectacular. The carpeted room itself is very well appointed with a comfortable king bed, down pillows, individual night stands, a work table and chair, 2 side chairs and a large table, 3 drawer dresser that doubled as a stand for the 48" flat screen TV. Custom lighting with recessed ceiling can-lights with dimmers, a table lamp, floor lamp and 2 bedside reading lamps. Great WiFi. The walls were tastefully decorated with local themed art. There was a mini frig under a shelf in the hallway holding a Keurig coffee pot, tea pot, mugs and glasses. The bathroom was spacious with more ceiling lights, his/hers sinks, tiled floors, granite counter, a wide mirrored closet with safe and tub/shower combination. The lav was in a separate room to itself. The private balcony patio overlooking the the ocean had 2 chairs, a table and flower pot with flowers. The views were incredible, wildlife everywhere looking across the bay including sea otters and sea lions feeding in the kelp be right out front. The patio was accessed by a sliding glass door with screen and 3 separate wooden louvered doors. Breakfast was delivered daily to the room consisting of your choice of fresh fruit, eggs, yogurt, a carafe of coffee or tea, pastries and juice. Incredibly good. There is a $24 daily parking fee for the ground level garage. Well worth it as we found everything we wanted to see within easy walking distance. The hotel has 2 hot tubs that we saw and outdoor reading, visiting areas. Fresh cookies in the lobby daily. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. This was our first time staying at MBI, but won't be the last.

Very Friendly staff. Comfortable, clean offering beautiful views.

Was a great experience! Room was amazing, fantastic view and excellent service!
