"We enjoyed our four night stay. The hotel is in a great location right in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Underground parking is included at no charge so all you have to do is park once and then it's a short walk to Ocean Avenue and all the great shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms and galleries. Our room was spacious and clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The hotel staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. Like most hotels in Carmel the property is older with some deferred maintenance...

Upon arrival we were greeted by very helpful and friendly staff offering refreshments and help with our luggage. The room was extremely nice. The bathroom had heated floors, a tub and shower. The complimentary breakfast is in line with any fine restaurant. The staff will provide beverage refreshments at anytime upon request in the bar. This is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed."

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful time! The place was top shelf, everything beautifully landscaped, the aromas from the various plants, could not get enough of. The cottages were amazing. The detail, cleanliness, and hospitality was well worth the drive there from the foothills. Shout out to the office manager Jacob and his staff. They were extremely knowledgeable and assisted us in navigating our way around town, well done! Definitely will be going back, appreciate you!"

La Playa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great boutique hotel in Carmel. Close to the main areas in Carmel. Great customer service. Lovely comfortable rooms while not huge are beautiful furnished. Great free extras provided from early morning coffee, a delicious buffet breakfast with egg station, afternoon wine and not forgetting the wonderful chocolate chip cookies in the evening. A real treat."
