We enjoyed our stay from check in to check out! Upon arrival the staff was kind and helpful. We loved how clean and cozy our room was and all of the extras that made it feel special- like the drinks/snacks hour in the afternoon and the breakfast delivery to the room. We were celebrating our anniversary and overall had a lovely experience. Definitely recommend staying here! We will be back :)

Good location but elevator is out of service and we were checked in on the 4th floor.Room wasn’t ready until 430.Was travelling with 2 senior citizens with bad knees and one almost had an asthma attack after taking the stairs.Had a rose on the table that is almost dry.Would not come back especially with the price I paid for-almost $500.Had a little snack offering but there was not enough place to sit to enjoy the limited wine offer.No parking except valet(no one met us at the lobby) which cost another almost $50.

Beautiful Hotel

Our riim was so beautiful and comfortable. The complimentary wine/cheese in the early evening was an awseome extra touch. The location was perfect for a visit to Monterey. The staff - especially the valets were so helpful. We asked to store our luggage for a few hours and instead they went ahead abd put it in the car for us. Would definitely stay here again.

My stay was perfect and accommodations were beyond what I expected. The staff was professional and in all my years staying at Monterey Hotels this boutique vibe is truly what I had been missing.
