Top Monterey Hotel Reviews

The Stevenson Monterey

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place for the money."

Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good

"While Hotel Pacific was conveniently located to the wharf, it lacked in a few areas. I was very disappointed with check-in. The wait time was a bit unreasonable. While the room size was pleasant it lacked in cleanliness. Very dusty and cobwebs along the patio door and in the corners. But honestly the worse was the tv remote, clearly it had not been cleaned in months! The patio area outside was disappointing. Very unkempt and the tree roots were everywhere with no manicured lawn! It made sitting outside unbearable. The one thing I can say is that the bed sheets and towels were clean and crisp to the touch. And, the bed was pretty comfortable. Personally, I would have second thoughts about staying here again."

Mariposa Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for a Monterey/Big Sur weekend with my boyfriend, his sister, and her husband. Pros: It was fairly affordable overall, the hotel is very cute. We liked the property. The pool is heated and the hot tub is roomy. Rooms are cute with skylights! Great location. Reasonable pet fees. Free water. Cons: "Breakfast" was disappointing. Not restocked frequently enough by staff. We were standing around waiting for hot water, juice, milk, and coffee. There was only hyper processed packaged goods and nothing substantial, no eggs, protein, waffles, nada. Some staff was very distracted and not very welcoming. The woman who checked us in was on a business call for her own business when we arrived and kept going on/off the call with no apology. She didn't even tell us where our room was located without us having to ask or any other info. She also let us carry all our bags without mentioning where the elevator is or that there was a luggage cart. Check in's on the later side, 4pm. I'm personally used to 3pm check in and checking in early if possible. Not to mention, they wouldn't even give us a late checkout. They don't split cards for the check in either. They close the pool area super early, at 9pm. Standard is usually 10pm pool close and I travel fairly often. The hot tub was also not very sanitary. There was some kind of food in it, which we realized a while in when we saw "floaties". Beds were too firm, bathroom fan was broken, towels are so small."

What's the difference between a Monterey guest house and a B&B?

A guest house in Monterey is typically a larger establishment with more rooms, offering a more hotel-like experience, and may provide additional amenities including luxury bedding. In contrast, a B&B is usually a smaller property that focuses primarily on providing a room and breakfast. A B&B is often more personal, and breakfast is typically included as part of the stay, but other services might be more limited compared to a guest house.
