The Stevenson Monterey

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Stay at The Stevenson Monterey Hotel! We had a wonderful stay at The Stevenson Monterey Hotel. The front desk staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. The staff were courteous and attentive, and their excellent service made our stay even more enjoyable. The location is also excellent, with convenient access to Old Fisherman’s Wharf, restaurants, and nearby attractions. It was a great place to stay while exploring beautiful Monterey. Overall, we were very pleased with our experience and would happily recommend The Stevenson Monterey Hotel to anyone visiting the area. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so pleasant!"

10/10 Excellent

"Great location less than 10 mins walk to fisherman's walk. Room was clean and everything in good condition. Parking at the hotel but $25 per night charge."

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa

Holiday Inn Express Monterey-Cannery Row by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The thing I missed was coffee in the room and cups. The breakfast was very good. Lots of variety. The staff was very accommodating finding us a view. We would have liked Netflix available."

Cannery Row Inn

8/10 Good

"Our room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. I thought we would have made service, and we left the clean our room tag on the door but no one cleaned it. The room was noisy at night because of outdoor traffic, and I would like to have known ahead of time that my view was the parking lot. The location was very convenient to Scenic walks, Fisherman's wharf, and dining areas. The bathroom was very cold, with no option for a heater"

Monterey Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful location and the room was perfect."

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I will be booking again.."

Hotel Abrego

8/10 Good

"Everything was wonderful. Beautiful, clean place. Had a luxurious feel to it. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was that if you booked through a 3rd party like Expedia, you will be charged an additional 20.00 for the amenities, which is specifically for the breakfast, parking and the free wine you get (even if they clearly advertise that these are "included" in your booking). Be careful too, because Hotels.com or Expedia will charge a "property fee" of 20.00. If you ask what that is for, they will say it is for the breakfast, parking and the free wine BUT you will get charged an additional 20.00 by the hotel again. I disputed this, and I still haven't received my refund. The hotel itself was a wonderful experience. I am just very very upset with the deception and extra charges, when the ad clearly states the amenities are free. I chose this place over another because of the free breakfast, which is your typical continental breakfast. Little did I know, after checking in I would be charged for it."
