Carmel Wayfarer Inn

8/10 Good

"Great location. Rooms are clean despite being a bit dated and everything functional. Room was large and spacious"

Normandy Inn

8/10 Good

"Everything was almost perfect, except that the room needs soundproofing. I could hear people talking on the street from my room. Additionally, the guests on the floor above me were walking in their room doing a lot of things and sometimes dropping things even until after midnight, and I could clearly hear their footsteps. They didn't seem to make any effort to keep the noise down."

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful time! The place was top shelf, everything beautifully landscaped, the aromas from the various plants, could not get enough of. The cottages were amazing. The detail, cleanliness, and hospitality was well worth the drive there from the foothills. Shout out to the office manager Jacob and his staff. They were extremely knowledgeable and assisted us in navigating our way around town, well done! Definitely will be going back, appreciate you!"

Carmel Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had such a wonderful stay at Carmel Beach Hotel! I’m especially appreciative of the amazing staff—they were incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout my stay. The location is fantastic, just a hop, skip, and a jump away from the beach, which made it so easy to enjoy everything Carmel has to offer. The perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. I’d happily stay here again!"

Carmel Resort Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time here! Property was super cute, we love the cabin vibes. Management was very helpful and accommodating to our request for early AND late checkout, we were very appreciative of that as we were in town for the race that weekend. We will be back!"
