We stayed at the ...

We stayed at the Monterey Bay Inn late February of 2023 and had a wonderful time and experience. The staff was professional and helpful and made checking in fast and efficient. The lobby was clean and so was our room which was on the 3rd floor with ocean view close. Even though we were situated close to the elevator, we found our experience quiet. The king size bed was fabulous which was a big deal to me because I don't normally sleep well in hotel beds. The bathroom upgrade was a real luxurious visual with lots of space for two people to maneuver. Outlets were a little hard to find for charging your electronics, but if you pull the bedside tables slightly away from the wall, voila. We took advantage of the continental breakfast all 3 mornings so that we could enjoy the room, the view and the morning sunshine. The continental breakfast was perfect. Low calorie and enough food to get you going until lunch. It was served right on time and brought directly into our room by friendly maid service. The hotel has two hot tubs, one with a gas fire pit and lovely sitting area the other on the top floor with a view. The hotel is in a good location, still within walking distance to the local shops and restaurants and a short drive to all your sight seeing adventures. I would definitely stay here again. Cheers, Denise Pearson.

The BEST hotel in Monterey!!!!!

I've stayed here before and this is the best place to stay in Cannery Row. Forget the large hotels nearby, I've stayed in those before. This hotel is so well thought out. We travel alot and this hotel ranks up to near #1 for me that has all the amenities that I want in a hotel. It's the little things that makes a huge difference. They make the room comfortable for 2 people, not just one. Two luggage ranks, double sinks, multiple choice of pillows, 2 nice plush sink bath mats (you hardly see these in hotels), a door stop that keeps the entry door open, tub nonslip mat and a tub mat, 2 very large trash cans (most cans you can only fit 3 Starbuck cups). The room has binoculars and a wine opener. The robes are very nice, so is the breakfast that they bring up to you. Can't say enough how beautiful the presentation is. The room has a refrigerator and a safe. The bed is so plush! We were on the 4th floor with a great view. The ice machine is closeby. They use name brand items like Kleenex, Dannon Yogurt, etc. No cheap branded stuff. The garage is covered. The hotel is walking distance to the wharf and Cannery area. They even have freshly baked cookies in the lobby with coffee. This is my go to hotel in Monterey. I just wished other hotels can learn something from this place that has the rooms so well thought out to make your stay so comfortable! It's just a well thought out hotel!!!! I will always come back to this hotel even if I have business in Salinas. It's not that far to drive from there.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was walkable to most things, while still on the water. The breakfast was nothing fancy but was very convenient and a nice touch to have delivered every morning. We’ll be back!

Convenient location next to San Carlos Beach/ oceanview room

Great location next to San Carlos beach! It was so nice and convenient to spend a day on the beach and took out a SUP on the bay. The room had a nice Oceanview. Hot tubs are on the 2nd and 4th floor. Parking is $25 per day. You can park in the city lot across the street between 9 am and 8 pm for $10 and move to street parking for free overnight. We didn't want to bother with moving the car back and forth.
