Top Monterey Hotel Reviews

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location. Great interiors. Some great restaurants on the property. Looks out onto Monterey Bay and is right next to a wonderful coastal trail. Loved the in room Nespresso machine! Beds were great. Bathroom was excellent. All round perfect hotel and spa!!"

Hotel Pacific

6/10 Okay

"I usually love staying here, prices are reasonable, easy parking, facilities are lovely and it’s close to a lot. Unfortunately during my most recent stay the bathroom in my room didn’t seem to have been cleaned before I arrived. Perhaps only the linens were replaced. There was hair on the shower walls and on the floor and someone’s hand sanitizer had been left behind. I’d still recommend the place because my other stays have been pleasant."

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

8/10 Good

"Rooms could use a lot of updating... almost thought we were sharing our room with the two adjacent rooms as we could hear EVERYTHING clearly as if they were in the room with us.... TP roll is way off to the left side of the toilet, so it's literally a stretch to tear off the tissue... sink hose was totally wrapped and kinked underneath the sink, so there was no cold water, had to have the hubs fix it. TV guide showed a variety of things, but when you clicked on something to watch, it was something else (the guide was not accurate) Phone didn't work so calling the front desk for something was done on my personal phone. The fridge was adequate for small amounts of stuff, closet was adequate for storage. The bed was comfy (if you like a firm mattress), and room temp remained stable and good. Didn't have to use the HVAC .. The valet and staff were very nice and helpful, friendly. The hotel is VERY close to Wharf shopping and restaurants, as well as in-town restaurants and shopping. Very close to Pebble Beach Golf courses and others. Overall review: Clean, comfortable, and convenient. The price was a bit high for the above-mentioned issues. But we will stay again, and ask for a quieter zone."

Lone Oak Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable stay overall. The bed was comfortable, the staff was friendly, and the location was convenient for exploring Monterey and the surrounding area. The rooms appeared to be somewhat updated and clean. I thought the property was a good value and would probably stay here again if the price was right. One thing to note is that photos may show a jacuzzi, but it appears to be associated with certain rooms rather than being a shared amenity for all guests."

Monterey Beach Hotel, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room had everything that we could ask for. Waking up next to the beach was great. Other than the waves, the location is pretty calm and quiet. And there are many food spots and stores around it incase you need last minute supplies or a late night bite. Would stay here again."
