“Same great place it's been”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 27, 2012

I hadn't had a chance to stay hear since the TED conference moved from Monterey to Long Beach, but it was the same wonderful place I remembered... cozy rooms with fireplaces, right near the pier and bike path, excellent service.

“Great stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 22, 2012

This hotel is located in a really nice spot. Just minutes by foot to the Wharf and 1 mile from Cannery Row. The rooms are big with high ceilings and a fireplace in each one. Our balcony was a nice place to sit and have a glass of wine before dinner. As one reviewer mentioned the rooms are a bit dated but clean and cozy.
The continental breakfast is nice, although I would have preferred a few less carb heavy options, maybe some cheese or meat. Tea and coffee are offered in the afternoon. We had kids with us and would have liked some hot chocolate or something offered as well.
We had a great time and will definitely return next time we stay in Monterey.

“How Did I Mis This Gem?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2012

Within steps of the convention center this lovely place offers a better room than the big hotels and for about $50 less per night. Are there negatives? Well there is no fitness center so if a nice run to Cannery Row and back (2 miles) is not your thing or the lack of an in house bar bothers you then there they are - the negatives. On the other hand if a large room with fridge and snacks and his and hers showers (one over bath) and very quiet heating, balconies and beautiful fountains in the courtyard as well as some neat 4 person hot tubs moves you then you have found the right place in Monterey.

Room Tip: Rooms on Pacific are quiet. You really wont hear street noise.

“Wonderful Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2012

There were two couples that both had rooms for Pebble Beach this weekend, and we had a wonderful experience during our stay. Each morning the hotel provides a wonderful breakfast that includes fresh fruit, hard boiled eggs, toast bagels, cereal, muffins, coffee and tea. The rooms were a little dated but spacious and clean, and even included a fireplace, which was great for a romantic weekend. The staff was extremely helpful and attentive, they just ran out of toothpaste but that was my own fault for not remembering it in the first place. Overall, I would recommend this hotel, and it is centrally located to everything.

“Beautiful and even nicer than expected!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2012

The rooms in this hotel are enormous and beautifully decorated. The valuted ceilings are gorgeous, the room has a lovely romantic feel, the bathroom is quite posh and the kitchenette area is just right for an extended stay or for storing a bottle of wine to share in front of the fireplace. Breakfast was pretty standard but a nice touch, parking was convenient although an extra fee and the location could only be made better by having a full ocean view (the Portola hotel across the street blocks it out). We walked to dinner on the wharf and a cafe for good coffee in the morning and will aboslutelystay here again the next time we're in Monterey. Given the size of the room, we even could have brought the kids with us and still had a nice vacation.
