Top Steinbeck's Spirit of Monterey Wax Museum Hotel Reviews

InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel and staff were top notch. We really loved being able to valet our car and were able to walk everywhere we needed to go...! Beautiful hotel, great staff, beautiful Monterey!"

Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good

"Hotel Pacific, as you may notice at times, is a budget friendly hotel, though through photos and description it sounds very grand. I stayed here many years ago and it was a wonderful stay, catering to unique and unusual amenities in the room. To bring it back to present day, some of the approach to the type of hotel stay this establishment was originally intended to be remains. Things like the fire places, the views, the style, some of the room sizes & layouts. However, they have now swayed into budget friendly, for their own selves and at times that is relayed onto the customer through the prices for the stay but not always. There is minimal staff presence in general. Ex- There is no assistance with bags upon check-in, only a cart guests can push themselves. The parking is on-site, below one of the buildings and is very tight. I checked in on my last stay at about 10pm due to travel. Upon check in I paid just voer $25 for a parking space. Reasonable. What was not reasonable was that there literally was only ONE space in the entire parking garage - and it was a handicap space. Unfortunately, I had to park in it though I am not handicap. The rooms are only as clean as they can get given no recent upgrades or renovation. The bedding is clean and semi-up to date. The bathrooms have some minor issues, are functioning but they are not perfect. As far as balconies, some technically have a balcony but not one you’d care to use. Still nice but not what is advertised."

Wave Street Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Arrived and check in was easy. They gave us a complimentary bag of some snacks. The room was clean, and had a frigerator and safe. The bathroom ammentities were great. My hair was so soft after a shower. Ice on 2nd floor by fire pits. Nice place to eat, rest and enjoy the outside after walking around the area. Which we were only a couple blocks away from street to Aquarium and the shops. In fact a couple blocks away from CVS, Starbucks and surrounded by restaurants. Cafe across the street was delicious too. Recommended by hotel. Baby seagulls also were there on top of roof being on the 4th floor we had great vies of rooftop and the birds and an ocean view."

Victorian Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second stay at this inn, and I plan on returning again! The staff was very helpful and check in was fast and efficient. We enjoyed the complimentary wine and cheese before heading out to our evening. The breakfast was great, and the location of this inn is fantastic. The rooms are older but charming and very clean. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay."
