In the Words of our Monterey Guests

Food outstanding…halibut prepared to perfection with beet salad. Our server Lisedel was so impressive, kind, and genuinely caring!!! She should be a model for all servers. Bartender made a great Manhattan!

The daytime front desk staff and the Ali the Bartender were absolutely amazing! They made sure I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay! My room was very clean and the fireplace was very cozy! I highly recommend!

What a very nice room! What a cute little (and effective) fireplace! Great location for walking around Monterey!

Love this place.. staff is excellent!! Thank you Henna for helping us getting checked a little early so we could check in before attending the motorcycle event!!!!

Ambiance is spacious, airy, cool and the tables are spaced well apart. They've got a nice bar and clean restrooms with a cozy waiting area. Well staffed and quick with service. Food and drink was wonderful! We tried the Octopus (SO good and tender), a fish dish, and a couple of their vegetarian options. All were wonderful, flavor, with fresh ingredients. Will definitely be coming here again and I recommend that everyone try this restaurant once! As a Monterey local, I assumed that Esteban was only open to their partnered hotel Casa Munras. But you absolutely can enjoy a meal here without being a guest - and I highly reccommend you do! I would put Esteban up there with the Grotto, Sardine Factory, and Whaling Station as a few of the top places to try when in Monterey. Happy to find a new spot to frequent.

What an absolutely pleasant surprise! It’s always a little anxiety provoking to reserve in line sight unseen but this exceeded my expectations! From the beautiful reception area with a cozy fireplace to the pool (I was the only person there one day), to the beautiful rooms and super comfy bed! It was perfection! I will definitely stay again !

ELEGANT, PHENOMENAL AND DIVINE ENTREES!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR PEOPLE WITH EXQUISITE TASTE, BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE AND LOVE IMPRESSIVE PLATING!! 1000% DELICIOUSNESS Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Finally treated myself to body wrap and facial. Jacqueline was awesome. Service was prompt and spa is super clean. Felt very comfortable and totally relaxed. Highly recommend this place!!

Elegant, comfortable, welcoming ambience paying respect to Spanish California and delicious, fresh Spanish-Californian-Mediterranean flavors make this a winning restaurant. We appreciated the friendly and hard-working staff. The dishes were suffused with harmonious flavor such as an incredible watermelon gazpacho with herb oil and chocolate mint from the Casa Munras garden.

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.
