Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay ."

InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"."

Lovers Point Inn

8/10 Good

"The price for this location was GREAT! Location is amazing and great views even from the 2nd floor! Parking was tight so I don't recommend a large vehicle...which is a poor idea in the area anyway. Property is dated and lack of AC was a bit of a challenge. Staff were pleasant and the room was as clean."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Monterey Bay Seaside

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Would definitely stay here again!"

Pacific Inn

8/10 Good

"Everything about this place is good if you're looking for a last minute stay. The only thing I didn't like was the TV. We were watching Netflix and it continuously kept pausing on us. Other than that, this was a good stay,"
