Monterey Bay Inn

This is the second time we have stayed here. The rooms are clean and spacious. The rooms with baloneys and views of the bay and ocean are wonderful. The tasty breakfast that is delivered to your room each morning is a great way to start your day. I like that you can walk to the shops, restaurants and wharf. It is also a quick drive to Carmel. All the staff is nice and friendly. We like the free cookies at check in and free bottled water. The hotel offers different discounted packages which you can choose from, and different packages are offered at different times of the year. We took the 15% off one time and the whale watching package another time.

We spent a couple of days over New Year's Eve at the Monterey Bay Inn. I booked a harbor (ocean view) according to my confirmation email. Our room was a park/street view with the harbor visible if one leaned over the railing. So, we went back to the front desk. The staff could not have been nicer and moved our room to a harbor view. We were very happy with the views, the bed and the room. The hotel offers a "Pillow Menu" which was new to me- nice touch! We didn't need to change our pillows as those on the bed were lovely. The room top hot tub was lovely: clean, great views, and the perfect temperature. The included breakfast was healthy and tasty, It was so nice to have it delivered and then the tray taken away. I felt so relaxed and definitely like I was on an actual vacation. HEAVEN! Mo

The view from our room was of the bay and it was amazing. We loved listening to the sea lions and fountain below. We loved being able to walk to restaurants and the aquarium. We drove to Carmel for dinner and had a roadtrip to Big Sur and Pfeiffer Beach. The location was great.

Positive: Complimentary water bottles are offered, view from the room was fantastic Negative: Location is listed as cannery row, but realistically is about a block away from the real active cannery row section

The hallways aren't the nicest but the rooms are beautiful so dont judge the outside. The location is amazing and walking distance to aquarium, wharf and more. Theres a beach right next door and the rooftop hot tub is amazing. Love it here! Michelle was so helpful and incredibly nice! Can't wait to come back!
