"We enjoyed our four night stay. The hotel is in a great location right in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Underground parking is included at no charge so all you have to do is park once and then it's a short walk to Ocean Avenue and all the great shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms and galleries. Our room was spacious and clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The hotel staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. Like most hotels in Carmel the property is older with some deferred maintenance...

Top Golden Rectangle Hotel Reviews

Pacific Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Easy, friendly check-in, clean and super comfortable room. I felt safe, comfortable, and slept soundly. Will definitely stay there again."

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Cute room, convenient restaurant. I had a lot of problems with the bathroom. There was not even a place to set down your bar of soap because the sink had no vanity and it sloped so anything you set down just fell right into the sink. There were no drawers for your toiletries, no shelf other than the one that was completely taken up by toilet paper and Kleenex. In other words, if you put toothpaste on your toothbrush, you had no place to set the toothpaste while you were brushing. It was that inconvenient. They kept the hairdryer in the room because there was no place for it in the bathroom.I also strongly believe that toilets should have a lid. That is a sanitation issue.There is a make up mirror which is a nice feature, but the little lamp next to it was completely inadequate for putting on makeup."
