We love the beautiful, spacious, and comfortable rooms. We enjoyed having a balcony with a garden view. There's a bit of traffic noise, but it quiets down later in the evening. The staff is always kind and helpful. Most of all, we really love the location and it has more of an airbnb feel instead of a big hotel. It's very walkable to restaurants, shopping, piers, and the Golden State Theatre. It is now our "go to" hotel when in Monterey.

Room was lovely with a fireplace and a balcony overlooking the garden. The property is historic, but the bathrooms have been remodeled, so are modern. The location is fantastic--easy walk to Fishermans Wharf, restaurants and historic sites, right in Old Town Monterey. Staff were lovely. The breakfast was fine. No room service or luxury hotel amenities, but to me the charm and historic ambiance more than make up for that.

Our Favorite New Place to Stay!

It was a beautifully decorated historical room. It was cozy and in walking distance to the venue where we attended a show. The continental breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Friendly staff and the room was perfect!
