We stayed here one night and really enjoyed the hotel. The room was huge and included a fireplace. It was very clean and the bed was comfortable. I did hear the people talking next door very clearly, but they didn't talk to late and after that it was very quiet. The breakfast was good as well.

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa is located in California overlooking Monterey Bay and highest rated in Cannery Row.
Stunning views from so many spots at this hotel, including our partial ocean-view room, from which we saw otters frolicking in the kelp beds (bring binoculars!) and humpback whales breaching and spouting in the bay. We were pleasantly surprised by the free bikes available. I'd expected either a fleet of beat-up cast-offs (which I've experienced at other hotels) or a one-hour time limit. Instead, they sent us across the street to pick up great-condition cruiser bikes with locks and handlebar bags, and we just had to get the bikes back by close of business (8pm). We rode north to Lovers Point and then south to the Dennis the Menace playground. Good meals Schooner's for dinner and breakfast, and a super easy walk to the aquarium.

Inspired by the Monterey Peninsula's natural beauty and nautical heritage, the Portola Hotel & Spa is a step outside the ordinary. If our hotel & spa is not ideal for you then you may want to try one of our other locations ( Jacks Monterey & Peter B's Brewpub ). At Jacks Monterey enjoy our: Monterey wharf restaurants & our delicious Monterey seafood restaurants. If that is not your style then try our second location Peter B's Brewpub. Here you will enjoy our Monterey Bars & Monterey Pubs. Find your favorite drink crafted by our Monterey Brewery .
Best location to be central to all restaurants and the wharf in Monterey. The staff was excellent. The beds were very comfortable and the security person was unbelievable! The bar was beautiful and a great meeting spot for your group.

Craftsman-style inspired guestrooms in warm, inviting earth tones reflect Monterey’s relaxed and friendly style. Italian linens, luxurious bathrooms, mini refridgerator, complimentary Wi-Fi and a wealth of other thoughtful amenities creates guest rooms that exceed expectations. Additional features include a walnut desk and ergonomic chair, a plush chaise lounge and 32 inch flat screen TV. Most rooms include fireplaces. Bistro Abrego serves an eye opening breakfast menu and a locally inspired dinner menu, and there is a spacious heated swimming pool and hot tub to relax in. Complimentary parking.
Hotel was overall good, you get a good accomodation for what you pay. Room was clean and bed was perfect for a one night stay. Location is perfect to walk arround the old wharf but for Cannery Row you will need a car o taxi. What i didn't like is that there was no breakfast option and that nobody helps you with luggage. I think is something hotels have been implementing since Covid to save some money. Overall a Good Hotel for a short stay.

Very helpful & friendly staff. Rooms were very clean, good size with nice showers. Our room was a little dark in the day & then the bright outside light made it too bright at night! But overall really nice base, we stayed 2 nights & packed a lot in. Used the laundry here too, which was v helpful halfway through our trip.

This room was not up to the brand name of this hotel. Mold on the shower curtain, run down, loud rooms that could use a little TLC. Windows we’re filthy with water spots, and everything looks like it receives just a quick wipe down during cleaning. I’ve been in hotels that charge way less that are cleaner.

At Casa Munras we had a large and comfortable room in a quiet and pleasant setting, walking distance to all sights and to-dos in Monterey. Best thing is the staff! All of them, ... the grounds keepers, the room cleaners and the front desk staff are genuine and responsive. Two standouts are Roberto - always cheerful and helpful and Henna the front desk manager - whose calm and capable demeanor set us up for a wonderful stay at our go-to hotel in Monterey. Henna is kind and unflappable - able to handle all - which she did for us. Thank you Henna and all at Casa Munras!

We are conveniently located in Monterey minutes from all the major attractions such as the Aquarium, 17 mile drive, Pebble Beach, Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf and Carmel. Our hotel also features pet friendly rooms upon request. All rooms have been recently remodeled at the end of 2016.
I stayed at the Pacific Inn, leaving yesterday. The room they gave me was remodeled and super clean. The bathtub was impressively modern. Crisp clean towels. They treated me very nicely, considering I checked in super late. Reasonable pricing. Great option to stay at Monterey next time for sure.

For unwinding and fine dining, relaxing and rejuvenating, sandcastles and sunset cocktails, your favorite California escape awaits at this beachy chic boutique hotel. The only Monterey hotel with a privately-owned beachfront, our glass-enclosed lobby instantly treats guests to intoxicating bay and ocean views.
Concept of this hotel is spot on however executed poorly. The views in the lobby are beautiful and would entice you to think the rooms would be too. Wrong. It feels like they have banked on the view of the lobby being the selling point and forgot that guests actually have to stay in the shabby rooms they provide. Carpet is ripped, privacy is poor as the blinds do not even work therefore letting light in at night and in morning. This hotel could be so much better if they thought about the guests first and the view second perhaps. We would not stay here again nor recommend.
