Beautiful room, beautiful view, beautiful night. The from t desk was extra helpful and courteous. Only small issue was our upstairs neighbor was very heavy footed as he packed up and left at 5:30 am. Other than that it was absolutely fabulous

We always try to stay at Monterey Bay Inn when going to Monterey. The rooms are clean, a nice size, we have a balcony and a view, and it’s close to a nice park. It’s between Cannery Row and Monterey Wharf, so location is great and very walkable. They have free parking, which is a plus. There are great restaurants nearby, Osteria al Mare and Schooners are two we like that is close by.

This is an older property that could use a little updating, but it makes up for it with location and thoughtful amenities. It is right on the water and the view is incredible. We loved breakfast being brought to our room each morning, daily housekeeping, comfortable bed and pillows, and even binoculars provided to view the marine life. We saw sea lions, otters, and dolphins daily right from our balcony. We also appreciated that checkout isn't until noon. One suggestion I have is to change up the breakfast a little (it's the same every day) but we did still enjoy it. We would absolutely stay here again!

This was our third time to stay at this hotel. The views are amazing and close to restaurants and shopping. A 10 minute walk or less and you're at Cannery Row. Looking forward to our next trip here in Monterey.
