Carmel Mission Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Extended stay because it was that nice and convenient"

Hotel Pacific

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel has all the charm you'd expect in Monterey, and so much more. Our standard room was spacious with a kitchenette, sitting area, separate bathtub and shower, and lovely patio. My stay was business-related, but I'll book again for vacations and special.occasions. The location is ideal for sightseeing. This was my favorite lodging in the Monterey/Napa area by far."

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel Portola exceeded my expectations. The property was well maintained along with the the hotel room being meticulously clean and ample size. The location could not be beat in order to explore Monterey and what it has to offer. We were treated first class by your staff. Would have no hesitation recommending this hotel to my friends and family."

InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG

10/10 Excellent
