"We had a king suite, that had been refurbished and it had a lot of charm. The bathroom was large and the water pressure excellent. It had a refrigerator, and in room coffee as well downstairs. It is very centrally located to restaurants, Walgreens, a brewery with excellent beers and on Tuesday night there is a Farmer's Market with many different things for sale lbesides food, like Jewelry, children's clothes, pastries, canned sauces, kitchen towels, ponchos, and purses. It is a historic Hotel. They have electric Heater and/or a gas fireplace to warm you and a fan in your room to cool you if you are too warm. It is never too warm near the ocean. ."

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"minor point... it can be a labrinth to get to your room. it's the personality of the real estate. however, if a staff member can see there's a deer in the head lights look in a "client" after being told the navigation instructions, recognize that and make sure there is staff available to help navigate the premises."

InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We had another beautiful stay at The Clement. The staff was friendly and helpful, from the front desk to the housekeeping and bell staff. The location is the best in town, and the bed…I wish I could take it home with me! I highly recommend this hotel!"
