The room was soooo clean when we arrived, the bring up breakfast at your desired time you can even choose what you want from a form they have you hang on the door! The views were amazing we got the harbor view and waking up to the sound of seals and ocean waves was soothing and relaxing, the walk to cannery row and the aquarium is so quick too and it’s not even hot so stretch your legs and walk everywhere we did and we loved everything we were able to find and see!! There’s also tons of classic cars the start their cruise down cannery row right outside the hotel! we’ll be back for our next vacation out here for sure thank you for your amazing hospitality and kindness all hotel staff!!

This is one of our first choices ...

This is one of our first choices to stay in Monterey Bay. Always a great time and we look forward to returning again and again. Location is perfect for wildlife viewing (nesting cormorants, pigeon guillemots, pelicans, otters, sea lions, gulls, etc) and close access to water sports such as scuba diving, fishing, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The complimentary, delivered to room, breakfast was nice for those of us who just want to take in all the beauty outside our bay view balcony. (Even as I write this I want to be there.) Staff was welcoming, attentive, and professional. Highly recommend.

... The location was amazing! ...

Staff were very helpful and quick to respond to extra items needed. The location was amazing! For us we arrived on a Tuesday and did not move our car again until checkout on Friday. Everything we did from the Aquarium, whale watching tour, Cannery Row, beach access and of course a great selection of places to eat were all within walking distance. The beach area close to the hotel had so many sea lions and babies it was like having our own Aquarium right there! They babies are adorable 😍 Definitely recommend paying a bit extra for a room with a balcony and ocean view, my personal favorite. Would definitely recommend this hotel for location, staff, and price point. We will be back!

Coming to Monterey has been a goal for many years. We chose Monterey Bay Inn because it is on the water and is a short walk to Cannery Row. The location was all we could have hoped for. The views of the bay were amazing, and Cannery Row is a nice 1/2 mile stroll. The hotel is very comfortable and would be very quiet, except for the barking sea lions, not a big deal. The hotel serves a continental breakfast to the room each morning. There is pastry, hard-boiled egg, fresh fruit, yogurt, and coffee.
