I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its quiet rooms overlooking Cannery Row and near the rooftop viewing area. The staff was amazing, offering friendly and helpful service, going above and beyond especially when my husband was sick. The location couldn't be better for exploring Cannery Row, right next to the ocean and within walking distance to many activities and restaurants. The dining experience in the evenings exceeded my expectations, making the stay worth it. The facilities were top-notch, enhancing my overall experience.

The hotel's location was perfect for everything we wanted to do in Monterey, with stunning views from the room and easy access to attractions and restaurants. The rooms were filled with natural light and beautifully decorated, though noise from the nearby elevator could be bothersome. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff ensuring a delightful stay. Dining, while exquisite, went above and beyond our expectations but the noise levels, especially on the weekends, were somewhat disruptive.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The room was too warm for a comfortable sleep on the warm end-of-summer evening, but it had a nice sauna and a beautiful gas-lit fireplace with stunning ocean views. The location was ideal, right on Cannery Row with beachfront access, and being able to spot sea otters from the window was a unique experience.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were perfect, cozy with a fireplace, romantic canopy beds, and fantastic window seats for chilling, although there were a few burning marks and stains on the bed sheets and chairs.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of delight and a bit of hassle. The location was fantastic, right on the water at Monteray, offering easy access to the aquarium and the sea, albeit a bit isolated from other attractions. The rooms, although a tad small, were beautifully decorated and super cozy. The service from the staff was top-notch, incredibly friendly and helpful, even going the extra mile to deliver my bags while I was shopping. However, I did encounter a bit of a struggle finding an available room due to a mix-up with the carts in the area, leading to some last-minute scrambling to find an alternative.
