A very comfortable, attractive and friendly hotel

A very comfortable, attractive and friendly hotel that because of its history and design feels like a hybrid high-end motor inn combined with a boutique hotel in its center. It has a gorgeous lobby and ample services and spa in the main buildings with rooms that feel comfortable, clean and cozy, and appropriate for couples or families. The location is a good base for seeing the peninsula. While breakfast is not included, we were very pleased with the room rate at Casa Munras. We will return, next time with our teens. Finally, we highly recommend Esteban, the hotel's impressive Spanish-California-themed restaurant.

Estéban Restaurant - Don’t Miss this restaurant when visiting the Monterey Coast

Highly recommend Esteban’s at Casas Munras. Suggest making a reservation as it’s very lively early! I was excited to try their 3 course paella dinner (unadvertised) and it did not disappoint!! It included a yummy salad, a perfect size mussel and scallop paella which was so tasty. The dessert was a crème Brûlée! Our waiter Salome along with the entire staff was terrific! My husband had the cochinillo pork- a large pork belly prepared to perfection! As well the asparagus and pimientos on the tapas menu was total deliciousness! Every dish was unique and thoughtfully prepared! Service was attentive and the meal beautifully orchestrated! Looking forward to trying different dishes when we return! Bravo Esteban’s!!

Estéban Restaurant - My friend and I had the Wagyu beef

My friend and I had the Wagyu beef and it was delicious. Our desserts were also outstanding. Prices for dinner were acceptable, and the service was topnotch. I would definitely return.

Estéban Restaurant - This place is truly remarkable

This place is truly remarkable. The octopus was a combination of soft and crispy. Incredible. The shrimps were amazing. Hamachi crido was a mind-blowing sensory adventure - flavor, texture, presentation. Wow. Pure love. Good selection of wines. Super well thought out menu. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Very enjoyable stay

We loved our few days at this hotel, and wish we could have stayed longer. It was in a good location close to the main street with plenty of restaurants which led down to Old Fishermans Wharf. Our room was spacious and spotless. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a lovely meal in Estebans, and sat outside on the patio after. The pool was a bonus to relax in at the start/end of a day's sightseeing. Would love to return and would recommend to anyone spending time in Monterey.

Estéban Restaurant - Since our wedding

Since our wedding, we have made t a dinner tradition to come to Monterey on our anniversary. Not only is the food AMAZING! but the service and ambiance are too. Back to the food, their Paellas, patatas bravas and roasted veggies are my favorite. P.s. can I get your recipe for the seasoning on the patatas bravas? My current pregnancy craving is veggies and that seasoning has now left me craving it. Please and thank you
