Carmel Mission Inn

8/10 Good

"none"

Carmel Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Carmel Beach Hotel was a 10/10 for us!! The property was beautiful, the service was amazing, and the location was perfect for our trip. We did a lot of looking online before we booked here and so glad we did. My wife said it was one of her best hotel experiences to date, trust me she is a tough critic! Would definitely book again"

Carmel Bay View Inn

8/10 Good

"Good location and decent value near downtown Carmel. Room was clean and spacious, however the bed was not particularly comfortable and because there was no cross-ventilation or A/C, leaving windows open made for a noisy environment and limited privacy. Plumbing was also very noisy and toiletries were not high quality. Breakfast was passable, but the scrambled eggs lacked flavor and the OJ seemed very watered down. Of course, there are plenty of great breakfast options nearby if you're looking elsewhere. Ultimately, not a bad accommodation choice, but not a great one."

Pine Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The Pine Inn is an older hotel. Great location to everything! The furnishings are dated but that is what makes the hotel so unique. Rooms/hotels are very clean with beautiful grounds that are so well kept. Amenities - it would have been nice if they had coffee for the guests. We had a very nice ocean view but note the street below can be very noisy at 6 am in the morning. There are no fans or air conditioning so we had the windows opened a lot. The restaurant at the hotel has a great happy hour and wonderful, friendly bartenders. We would stay again at the hotel for the location."

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We couldn’t use the TV system because the system is not “ random “ password acceptable and our phone doesn’t accept such a non- safe wifi system. We could not watch anything using the TV. You should tell guests when they check in. Otherwise, we don’t know what to do with it."
