We had a first floor single storey king room so easy access from the dedicated parking outside the room. Also patio chairs and table out of the patio doors with view of courtyard. Bed was comfy and shower was adequate. Although near highway we didn’t hear it and no sound from neighbouring room. Didn’t use the pool or hot tub but it was very clean and warm. Easy 15 minute walk into town for shops and restaurants. Area very clean and felt safe walking back at night. Ok value for money.

Known for beautifully undulating coastline attracting a wealth of wildlife, laidback Monterey is set on a small peninsula. Though now more famous for Monterey Jack cheese, it was once an important sardine fishing town. Some ex-canning factories now house galleries and shops on a street renamed Cannery Row after a novel by John Steinbeck. A museum and his former home in nearby Salinas can be visited.
The fantastic Monterey Bay Aquarium houses a fascinating range of local sealife, which is so prevalent here that you can often see seals basking on craggy beaches, or sea lions roaring away under piers in Fisherman’s Wharf. Whalewatching tours also depart from here.
South is the Monterey State Historic Park, site of historic buildings including Custom House and the Old Whaling Station with a path made from whalebone. To the east are a couple of Monterey hotels on the beach on Booking.com, and there are also several Monterey hotels with indoor pools.
Right by Monterey Peninsula Airport is one of the city’s 7 golf courses, and there are 3 golf courses near the Laguna Seca Raceway.
Whether you’re here for the Monterey Jazz Festival, or for driving the Big Sur Pacific coast road to the south, if you’re staying with kids, don’t forget to check out the Dennis the Menace Park.

Monterey was lovely, a great place to walk around and lots to see and do. We wish we had stayed longer. And it would also have been good to go to Carmel if we had stayed longer.
The Dust Bowl brewery down near the harbour was great. (It's in between a main road and a car park so doesn't look brilliant from the outside but worth a visit!).
The Fieldwork brewery on Munras Ave is also worth checking out, but only on a sunny day as it's outside seating only!
The aquarium is supposed to be one of the best in the world but we were fairly underwhelmed.

The centre of the town is rather tacky & expensive but the National Park at Point Lobos is lovely, as is the coastal drive (or cycle) to Carmel. The Aquarium was somewhat disappointing and very overpriced inside. The small Art museum is worth a short visit. The dedicated, car free trail for pedestrians and cyclists is a nice idea.

Monterey is a great place to spend a few days.
Monterey is a great place to spend a few days. There is a lot to see and once you learn the one ways streets it is easy to get around. The wharf is fine, Cannery row is a tourist spot but it is fun and the aquarium is great. Food is very good in Monterey and Carmel.

Cannery Row is a bit of a tourist trap, but if you head away from the beach you quickly access the restaurants of Lighthouse Avenue, including Hula - Hawaian food. If I had my time again, I would have tried to stay nearer to the Acquariam, even as far west as Pacific Grove (technically the next town along), near the delights of Happy Girl Kitchen.

I love the ocean.
I love the ocean. There are just so many great little beaches to visit. Monterey has so much Sea life too. We saw harbor seals, otters, elephant seals, too late for the Monarch Butterflys, tons of birds, just from the walking paths! We actually walked from Monterey to Pacific Grove. There are also loads of shops, and restaurants.
The hotel is well situated, just walking distance away from Monterey's Cannery Row. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with the added charm of a working gas fireplace. What's more, the hotel offers a generous breakfast and a wine-tasting happy hour. What's there not to like? Just note that off-the-street garage parking is extra. Also, if you are looking for a nearby restaurant, I would strongly recommend The Sardine Factory, which serves excellent seafood.
Great location, quiet and spaced perfectly for local adventures. Staff was best staff I've experienced in a hotel super friendly and made our stay amazing. The Buffet Breakfast was awesome and the juicing machine was a hit for the kids. The pool and games were also perfect for the kids. Also located within minutes from Monterey Wharf, Carmel, 17 mile drive, and Big Sur, so many fun things to do for all! Definitely will stay here again in the future.
We used Monterey as a "base" to explore the Highway No. 1 as we couldn't drive all along because of the blockage of the road. So we stayed here for two nights and found the hotel to be very nice and welcoming, perfect spot to start the journey along the coast. We didn't visit any attractions in Monterey itself as the fantastic vistas along the coast were the thing we wanted to see.
The location is perfect, right next to the rec trail, cannery row and the sea. You can see wild otters, seals and sea lions within a few minutes walk of the hotel. The room was big with a good shower and huge, comfortable bed. It also had a coffee maker, fridge, and microwave. There is cutlery, plates, and hot drinks (including hot water) available in the reception area.
location wasnt bad, 10 min to wharf, on busy street but set back so not noisy, bathroom very nice with fancy lights in the mirror and granite countertops and shower, very clean, beds comfortable with 3 different types of pillows on beds. pet friendly but no specific pet areas outside other than parking lot and empty lot behind hotel. oversized fridge for motel room
Location was great, convenient to walking around and exploring Cannery Row. Some might find it annoying to be right in the middle of crowds of tourists. However, I am used to it and found it great to access plenty of restaurants and shops. The hotel itself was very clean and inviting. All the staff we interacted with were very friendly and responsive.
Our stay at Casa Munras was better than we expected! We loved the location (very easy to get to the main Monterey strip). Rooms were very cute and clean. Close to coffee shops, lunch spots, gas, etc. It also has a charging station for electric cars which was great. Hotel staff was super friendly!
I would recommend Casa Munras!
Booked a suite which consisted of a main room with double and a side room with 2 x double beds for kids. Excellent sized room for price and ideal for families.
Location is good for an overnight stop in Monterey and avoiding the expensive hotels in the centre.
Staff are great and very friendly as well.
Exceptional location - cant have it better. Right on the beach and 10 mins from downtown Monterey. The breakfast area at the Waterfront restaurant on the 4th floor has phenomenal views and wonderful meals. This place is ideal for relaxation. And the price is just right!
We've stayed at the Pacific Inn several times for our frequent visits to Monterey and are very happy with the hotel and staff. Rooms are always very clean and the staff is great. No complaints here - thanks!
Located right on the beach. View is amazing. You can have a bonfire on there beach property till 10pm. Plenty of stores near buy if you need something. 10 minutes away from Monterey Aquarium and Cannery Row.
Very comfortable hotel with a pool and well positioned next to a diner and the Amtrak thru bus stop. Also near a few good restaurants and the trolley to get to Fisherman’s Wharf and Monterey Bay Aquarium.
We liked the fact Pacific Inn was pet friendly and reasonable driving distance to all the main attractions which interested us. The hotel room does have a mini fridge and microwave. Fairly quiet.
Cute, quaint little hotel. Had all the amenities, fridge, microwave, coffee maker, snacks and water, AC etc.
Great location, literally 4 min walk to Monterey fairgrounds.
it was beautiful, relaxing, and had a great location. I love the little stores around the hotel, and I was a easy, easy walk to the wharf and to downtown Monterey.
Hotel is modern and welcoming with great facilities. It's location is on the water with easy access to bike and walking routes as well as local attractions.
