"Great location."

The Stevenson Monterey

10/10 Excellent

Wave Street Inn

10/10 Excellent

Monterey Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, 1 block from the waterfront pier and many, many shops and restaurants."

Stargazer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked it here! It is very convenient to the Monterey aquarium and Cannery Row area. We were able to walk to restaurants for dinner. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very cute and clean. My only complaint is that the outside lights shined right inside the room because they only have shutters, not any kind of blackout curtains or shades, so the room never really got dark at night. Luckily, I always travel with an eye mask. Other than that, I thought it was a great place and I would definitely stay here again."

Monterey Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We are here for the second time and are having a wonderful time again. The staff is very friendly and polite, and the room is clean and spacious enough. Especially if you have a balcony with an ocean view. The bed and pillows are comfortable. Be ready to pay an additional for parking $25, but parking is important for that busy area. Definitely will return to this place again. Thanks a lot for people who support comfort in this hotel."
