“Elegant Hotel with Ocean Views" This elegant historic hotel offers charm and a fantastic oceanfront location. Our sea view room was spacious and classically decorated. Watching the sea otters float in the kelp just outside was a real treat. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary bottle of Californian Pinot Noir — a thoughtful and much-appreciated gesture that made our stay feel even more special. The room was equipped with a Nespresso machine, which we really appreciated — it was hands down the best in-room coffee we had during our entire trip. Matthew at the front desk was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We had dinner at Schooners. While the food was fine, the service unfortunately did not meet the same standard — our main course arrived without cutlery, the fries came too early with the appetizer, and my sole was a bit overcooked, possibly from sitting under the heat lamp. Also, we received the bill but nothing to sign with. One area that could use an update is the bathroom — the shower curtain felt quite outdated and didn’t match the otherwise elegant feel of the hotel. Despite this, the hotel left a positive impression and remains a lovely place to stay in Monterey.

Disappointing ocean view room. Checked into a different hotel after the first night. The lobby looked great but the room had a very uncomfortable bed, an old ugly looking carpet, and a half-cleaned shower. The ocean view is available only if you are standing up! However, the restaurant was great and the staff were very friendly.

Excellent Hotel! Amazing place to stay. Staff was very pleasant and room was extremely clean. Restaurant and lobby bar was nice. Roof top hot tubs overlooking the bay was definitely our favorite. Location was perfect. It was in the middle between canary row shops and fisherman wharf so we were able to walk everywhere. We will definitely stay again.

Such a wonderful resort on the Pacific coast We stayed for 2 nights.,,room was very nice as was the views. Balcony is highly recommended. Staff was incredibly nice and accommodating. Resort is large but you don’t feel lost. Valet is a bit spicy ($45.00/noght) but all other fees were representative of a good hotel. Highly recommended - we will be back

Out of staters celebrating an anniversary. Having never been to Monterey, we did enough research to know this was a nice hotel in a nice location. Wrong. It is a GREAT hotel in a GREAT location. Perched literally on the bay at the end of Cannery row and a short ride to Fisherman’s Village, this is exactly where you want to be. Starting with Trevor at Valet, Summer at Concierge and every single staff member from check in to bar to restaurant, was very outgoing, friendly & professional. Our king room faced the bay and the waves soothed us to sleep and were great to wake up to. Food in the restaurant was fantastic (crab eggs Benedict, salmon and short rib pasta bolognese). Easy starting point for a trip through 17 mile drive and Big Sur. 100% would stay here on next visit!
