"We enjoyed our four night stay. The hotel is in a great location right in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Underground parking is included at no charge so all you have to do is park once and then it's a short walk to Ocean Avenue and all the great shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms and galleries. Our room was spacious and clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The hotel staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. Like most hotels in Carmel the property is older with some deferred maintenance...

Top Monastery Beach Hotel Reviews

Carmel Mission Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our time at the hotel. It isn’t a great location right next to the Barnyard which had some great restaurants and where my wife got a massage. It was also across the street from another strip mall that had a lot of other convenient places. And it was only 2 miles away from Carmel-by-the-Sea where we went and had a great dinner at La Bicyclette. We ended our night with a drink at the onsite restaurant which was very nice. I would definitely recommend this for your stay in Carmel."

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the little patio. Loved the firepits. Hotel has a great location, quiet but close to everything."

Normandy Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location!"

Pine Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic experience every time I stay here. From the rooms, the staff, the cleanliness of every area of the property, and its prime location. 10 out of 10!"

Cypress Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent comfortable highly recommend!"

Hyatt Carmel Highlands

10/10 Excellent

"Great room with a beautiful view. Reservations are highly recommended for their restaurant."

Carmel Fireplace Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay, it was clean and staff were good. We had an issue with the fireplace, which was rather underwhelming but it is an old hotel, Inn, what ever you want to call it. There are no food amenities, rooms are old, but clean, bed was very comfy and a decent sixed King bed. The gardens are beautiful and there is a very small patio area to sit outside for morning coffee etc, you can get coffee in your room and reception area but everything else is in the town area food, drinks perspective. While the place is in the town and only a short walk into the lovely town, the walk down to the beach is significant ! Its about a 25 min walk and up and down quite a steep incline but worth it as the beach is a supreme view. We did enjoy our stay, but be warned, eating out in the town is very expensive and sometimes not the best food !"

Le Petit Pali at 8th Ave

8/10 Good

"Le Petit Pali was very nice and easy to stay for downtown access. The front desk staff could have been a little more friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable but really no closet for hanging clothes. We enjoyed our stay, but thought there were a few things that could have been a bit more personalized or special."
