Top Carmel Highlands Hotel Reviews

Carmel Bay View Inn

Carmel Bay View Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This was a very nice hotel, well maintained. Great location at a reasonable price. Cool how it’s built into the side of a hill, yet they managed to have parking at each level. Loved the garden beside each door on our level. Very glad they have an elevator too, making it easier to get closer to ground level for walking to restaurants. I would definitely stay here again."
