The Monterey Hotel

The Monterey Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Love these nostalgic properties! So many nooks and crannies to sit and relax are scattered throughout the property. Almost as if you would expect Garbo or Bogart to step out of the shadows. The hotel is also a stop on the Monterey ghost tour!"

Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good
"This hotel is beautiful & is close to everything. The rooms are spacious & nice . The breakfast was good. My only complaint was that our room was on the ground floor facing the street. I asked to change rooms if possible but staff member said no because all pet friendly rooms were on the ground floor. The 2nd floor also has street side because the hotel sits on different levels. She did not even discuss other rooms options with me. We pay an additional $50 for our pet & we don’t get other options. This isn’t right."

10/10 Excellent
"Very clean and seemed like newly renovated rooms. Very minor, but I noticed the tp holder was torn from the wall but reporting it to the front desk was seamless. I appreciate the social area outside with cute string lights."

8/10 Good
"Good location for route 1 , bars and restaurants and the harbour but long walk to cannery row area. car parking charge is excessive and unnecessary in my opinion. Breakfast not included and restaurant we thought was expensive so did not use it and walked 5 mins into town. Pool nice touch"
