Top Carmel Riviera Hotel Reviews

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is super clean and the rooms are very spacious and clean. The location is great!"

Pacific Inn

8/10 Good

"The room (King bed) was spacious and always clean. No problem with the parking and the hotel was full the weekend we stayed. The mini fridge worked perfectly. The microwave too. No noise from the nearby airport only a little from the Fremont blvd but if you’re tired you don’t care about it. The location is pretty close to Monterey downtown and Monterey state beach but being the hotel close to the PCH (1) you can go easily and fast to the beaches north and south of Monterey."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Monterey Bay Seaside

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our two-night stay at Embassy Suites Monterey Bay–Seaside. The front desk staff were professional, courteous. The complimentary breakfast buffet was abundant and enjoyable, with a good selection of food. We especially appreciated the breakfast staff, who were helpful, welcoming, and greeted guests warmly. The hotel has an impressive and grand overall design, but the property is beginning to show its age. Some of the hotel amenities, furnishings, and room fixtures/accessories could benefit from updating. A major renovation in the near future would help restore the property to the level its attractive design deserves. The location is convenient, and being near the lake and surrounding recreational areas is a definite plus. We traveled with our senior dog, and she really enjoyed the peaceful environment and the surrounding outdoor areas. We also enjoyed the late-afternoon happy hour. It is a very nice feature of Embassy Suites. However, the experience could be even better if the bar staff were a little more welcoming and friendly."
