In the Words of our Monterey Guests

Great location, wonderful restaurant, nice room with good sized bathroom, and reasonable rates

wonderful location, very clean and comfortable.

No issues. Reception easy and stay friendly. Easy to find and park. Good quiet location a short walk from Town centre - wharf etc. Would happily stay here again. Bar shut at 9pm but we were able to take our drinks to patio area so no big deal.

The location of the hotel was convenient to restaurants and coffee shops and a quick drive to Cannery Row. Parking at the hotel was convenient.

We had a very nice stay here. Beautiful grounds, convenient location near city center, nice clean rooms (if a bit small), service was good, and the restaurant Esteban was spot on! Breakfast of buttermilk waffles with a fruit compote on top was amazing! All of this for a reasonable price. Highly recommended!

Spent 9 days in this area. Henna at front desk was especially helpful. Welcoming & knowledgeable. Can buy 2-day passes to the Monterey Aquarium (top aquarium in US) at the hotel for the price of one-day tickets. Executive Chef Gus Trejo served up his unique version of Spanish Negra Paella. Fabulous, and I’ve never before been a big fan of paella before this. He visited with us on the outdoor terrace that has heaters & fireplaces. Sent us off with his new warm breads for breakfast. Lovely man. Awesome chef! Reasonably priced. Great location.

Family visiting from Spain. Decided to check out the hotel restaurant as it was getting late, and what an unexpected delight! We had the cheese platter, asparagus salad, and harvest paella with chicken (with seasonal local vegetables), and finished with 3 dessert dishes - home made port ice cream with honey cake, chocolate creme brulee, and apple tart with homemade cinnamon ice cream - everything was exceptional! The Spaniards were very impressed. Also, you have to try the sangria!

The Chef Gus Trejo prepared the most amazing meal! We had delicious lamp chops, dates filled with bleu cheese, fresh made country bread, locally sourced scallops and sardines. Yeah made ice cream and more! Everything was hand picked and local - Amazing! Richard was our charming server. He made great menu and wine suggestions and his service was impeccable! Highly recommended!

My granddaughter chose this restaurant for our Mother's Day celebration. We ate on the patio during happy hour and enjoyed every dish. I especially liked the mussels and the Spanish tortilla. Best mussels I've had in a long time, served with spicy fries. Dog menu kept the dog happy for a very long time. There is a fire pit and heaters. The polverones are a spectacular desert, three wonderful gluten free cookies on a puddle of dulce de leche. A bit expensive if you try all the tapas, but definitely worth it!

The Deluxe King With Fireplace we used for a short getaway from the Bay Area was well worth the price for comfort, locality, service of the staff, cleanliness, proximity to restaurants, shops, and tours. Uber service and bike rental are easily accessible. The room had a beautiful view of the pool and flower garden, a REAL fireplace in the room and an ultimately comfortable bed. It was a true luxury at a reasonable price. We loved the restaurants and bars nearby and there is "NO" need to drive! A romantic and glorious experience. I dream of returning!
