Top San Carlos Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Monterey Bay Lodge

8/10 Good

"Clean, convenient. Located in a nice area with a park across the street. The only drawback was no air conditioning. Temperatures were unseasonably high during our stay. There was a fan, but our room faced the west making it hot and uncomfortable."

The Stevenson Monterey

8/10 Good

"Great proximity for walking to other sites"

Stargazer Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was a a perfect stay for my family and it was very comfortable. However, the hardwood floors were extremely dirty. We checked in 5pm after driving in from a 5 hr drive and within 3 hrs of being in the room, my son’s socks were completely black. Thankfully all other areas in the room were clean, but this was just something we had to keep being mindful of to ensure he wouldn’t get the bed dirty"

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot. Very dated rooms."

The Monterey Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Location was perfect. Staff very helpful."

Hilton Garden Inn Monterey

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room, attentive staff, and an great hot tub"

Best Western Plus Monterey Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The facility was very clean. The rooms were also clean , very spacious and comfortable. The staff was very accommodating, The second nap of our stay, the guest above us were very noisy. Heavy footed and jumping off the bed. The next day, the staff moved us with an upgrade to a 2 room suite at no charge. Making the last night of our stay the best night of our trip. I highly recommend this hotel."
