Highly recommend this gem in Carmel-By-The-Sea! The Adobe Inn's location is AMAZING you are within walking distance to Ocean Avenue, which is the main drag in Carmel-By-The-Sea. Customer Service is really taken seriously by the staff here. Everything from check-in to check-out process was smooth. The ladies that work the front desk are well educated about the area and always... More

We stayed for one night at the Adobe Inn at Carmel whilst travelling from San Francisco to LA on the Pacific Coast Highway. Our reception at the hotel was warm and welcoming. We stayed on a B&B basis. Breakfast was served to our room. The room was spacious, very clean and extremely comfortable with 2 x Queen beds. One of... More

In former mayor, Clint Eastwood's, incredibly charming town of Carmel-by-the-Sea, this is NOT a first choice in where to stay. So many other delightful inns offer more hospitable alternatives and live up to their promises in this lovely, walkable town. Sadly, service at the Adobe Inn was so lackadaisical it undid any of the allure this place had to offer.... More

Our stay was great. From the moment we went to make reservations with the very accommodating staff to the free breakfast delivered to our room. The location was walking distance to the beach and we had ocean views from our room. Also situated right in the heart of town we had everything at our fingertips.

Wanted this to be very special for husband and I for New Years. It was not! When you pay high dollars you at least expect glass glasses and a heater. This place had so many things wrong I don't know where to begin. The only positive thing I have to say about this place is the location was great. I... More

Pros: Lovely big rooms, fantastic location, nice views, very quiet and good parking access. Cons: Felt like the bathroom wasn't quite clean enough, slightly inattentive staff, and the breakfast took a big pass from us! The oatmeal comes with a packet of instant oats and a pot of half boiled water = absolutely revolting gruel! There are no microwaves in... More

This Inn was a very nice place to land en route to San Francisco. Carmel is a gorgeous little town, and the Adobe is easy walking distance (2-3 blocks) to almost anything. When we arrived, the manager was away from her desk, but there were comfy chairs and a blazing fire to welcome us. You park beneath the building for... More

Overall, we were pleased with the Adobe Inn. the room was huge and had a fireplace. The location was off the main street in a quiet neighborhood but easy walk to everything. Our only issue was the lack of any screens on the windows or sliding doors. The room was quite warm and we like to leave windows open to... More
