Top Carmel Hotel Reviews

Hotel Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"The place is in great location, close to everything (walkable to restaurants, shopping centers, to the beach) the place is clean, the staff's are awesome 👌 and breakfast is great 👍. The only thing missing compare to all the hotels I've been is no microwave and small refrigerator 😒."

Stilwell Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely little hotel and fine for our one night getaway. My gripe is the pricing and extra cost per person per room (over 2 ppl) at $50, which at best covers a welcome drink and breakfast - it feels unnecessary at an already very high price point for accommodations that do not feel at all like it warrants the cost/not special. Pros - nice staff, AC, water and coffee available in the lobby. Cons - no elevator, our bathroom had a sewage scent. You only get one parking spot per room, FYI."

Hyatt Carmel Highlands

10/10 Excellent

"This place is amazing! It’s comfortable, quiet, and absolutely beautiful. The views are breathtaking! The food is great and the service is even better. Every single member of the staff we encountered was fabulous and kind. Our room was cozy and the bed was super comfy! We’ll definitely come back."

Carmel Wayfarer Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We booked the 2 bedroom suite for 4 people and it was very spacious for all of us. It was also extremely convenient that both bedrooms had their own full bathroom! It was walking distance to all the shops and restaurants and we never needed to drive anywhere in town. There’s a coffee maker in the room but the office also has a keurig and hot water for tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. There is no common area between the bedrooms but we didn’t mind. One thing I would like to see is access to a microwave, however it wasn’t a deal breaker for us. For the price, location and convenience it was all worth it. Also, we never had trouble finding parking in the lot or on the street side with no time limits so that was a huge plus. They accommodated a late check in as we arrived around midnight and it was very easy. I would stay here again."

Pine Inn

8/10 Good

"Two down falls…no elevator…stairs fairly steep…too much for anyone with knee problems…and terrible parking…first come first serve…had to drive around for 30 minutes until a spot came available…nostalgic setting…antique furniture…super nice, comfortable bed…beautiful lobby…very inviting with a fireplace…excellent Italian restaurant connected to the hotel…Andy, the manager, was wonderful…very personable…delicious entrees and fabulous desserts!!"
