Location was perfect. There continental breakfast was the only thing that needs work. There needed to be a toast and bagel option. I’m not a cereal eater. Only had a hard boiled eggs and cereal on the list to pick from. But it’s the only thing that needed improvements on out whole stay.

Known for beautifully undulating coastline attracting a wealth of wildlife, laid-back Monterey is on a small peninsula. Though now more famous for Monterey Jack cheese, it was once an important sardine fishing town. Some former 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.

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.

My trip to Monterey Bay was amazing, due to how beautiful the scenery was and how close everything was to were I stayed. The Wave Street In was a great hotel to stay in because the aquarium and many restaurants are so close to it you can walk everywhere and not worry about parking. The hotel was also great as everything was clean and the staff was very helpful.
Would not recommend booking this place. We drove to this place all the way from SF and to our surprise they overbooked and just said they send us massage. They did not cancel the booking and did not bother actually getting in contact with us. The manager was arrogant and did not care that we drove 3 hours and don’t have place to stay (our paid booking at their hotel was still confirmed). In the end they found room at different hotel for us but kept the money even tho it was much cheaper.
The motel has been refurbished recently and the rooms were fresh, clean and comfortable. Although the rooms at the front of the property on the main road may have been a bit noisy we had a room upstairs at the back and it was very easy to sleep.
Reception staff were all helpful and friendly, especially Naomi.
The hotel is located not far from Cannery Row and the Wharf and it was easy to find parking downtown. Safeway supermarket is just a couple of minutes away which is a bonus.
A perfect location for events at the Monterey Fairground! Right across from the festival we went to! Also a quick run or walk down to the Bay and bike/run/walk trail. An extra big plus: the front desk staff! The reception host was amazing and just a generally wonderful person! While the hotel/motel is not a five star spot by any means (it’s all about the convenient location), her hospitality and friendly vibe made our stay extra special and all the better!
This hotel was amazing!! It was very clean, the people at the front desk were very kind and helpful, and the location of this hotel was close to everything! Me and my fiancé went to Monterey for our anniversary and were planning on doing Cannery Row and the beaches, and this was by everything!! I highly recommend staying at this little hotel! Parking was pretty big, they have a back lot as well, the beds were very cozy and everything went very well!
Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a fairly good selection of above-average offerings, which were as good or better than similar hotels on our trip. Good self-serve coffee machine in the lobby for outside breakfast hours. Bed was comfy and amenities clean. Plenty of on-site parking. Location is easy walking distance to downtown and harbour, for food, drinks and sights. This hotel complimented our fantastic time in Monterey.
It’s nice to relax in this Monterey hotel. The receptionist was kind and welcoming. It’s a 15 minute downhill walk downtown or a 30 minute walk to the Fisherman’s Wharf along with Monterey’s beach oceanfront. You can ride the city transit to Pacific Grove & Carmel or drive if you want to visit Carmel Valley & Big Sur. The calm weather attracts tourists from all over the world so peak seasons tend to bring families, owners with pets, and visitors.
Very clean hotel. Kind of in the middle of a tourist area, so no real feel of anything related to Monterey, Monterey Bay or Fisherman's Wharf, just a building in the middle of a tourist area. The room was very clean. The bed was very comfy and the bathroom area was very nice. There was a small fridge and microwave in the room -- both pluses. Very nice size for the room, and it was very quiet the night we stayed there,
Location of property was ideal for downtown Monterey and an easy walk to Fishermans Wharf. It was also an easy drive down to Carmel. Car parking was great - managed to get parked right outside our hotel room. Bed was comfy - room was a good size. Bathroom was a great size. Nice to have toiletries and lovely fresh towels. Also liked that there was a safe in the room. Pool looked nice, although we didn't make use of it.
The location is awesome. Once you’re open your room’s door - you’re already in the Monterey downtown. It’s so joyful to walk in early morning along the ocean shore. We parked our car at the hotel parking earlier than our check in was, and enjoyed our visit to aquarium and good restaurants nearby. The facility is clean and updated, the breakfast is so decent. We’ll definitely come back to this hotel as guests!
Amicable staff. We got a pack with edible goodies at the check-in. The room is OK, but the bathroom is too cold (we stayed during winter). Wlakable distance to Cannery RowUpon check-in, we were greeted by friendly staff and given a package of snacks. The room was satisfactory, but the bathroom felt too chilly during our winter stay. The hotel's distance from Cannery Row is walkable.
What a wonderful hotel! We especially like the welcome drink on arrival and it was a nice touch to meet the other guests. Lovely big room and the fireplace was very special. There was a travel cot (crib) waiting for us on arrival for our baby. Nice bathroom and facilities. Fantastic location right near Cannery Row.
We stayed here for the Monterey Jazz Festival. Every where else, even the hotels not within walking distance, increase their prices by 200 per night. This place did not. It is within walking distance of a great breakfast place. The room was clean AND the staff/owner incredibly kind.
The location is perfect! Close to the beach, close to all the restaurants and shops.
Breakfast was free. There's am amazing coffee shop across the street. Right next to the Antique mall. Free parking is a plus, other hotels on cannery row charge at least $25 for parking
We love the location of Hotel Pacific. Mostly we LOVE the comfortable rooms with sofa, fireplace and kitchenette. The grounds landscaping is lovely. The staff is very nice and accommodating. The breakfast is very good and the breakfast area is nice.
The hotel is centrally located in Monterey, which makes it ideal for all kinds of explorations. We really liked the room, and the breakfast in the hotel restaurant was delicious.
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.
