Our stay at the Monarch was pleasant and we would return again. However, the rooms are tired looking and are in need of updating. In addition our sink and bathtub drains did not drain well. Breakfast was provided which was very nice and appreciated. The staff providing breakfast were attentive and it was nicely presented. Very clean. They could use a little larger space for sitting.

Our maintenance was on it.We just moved our breakfast room to a larger space so maybe next time you can check it out, thanks for staying with us.

We decided to try some place new. We were pleasantly surprised. Yes the property is older and a bit dated but still in good shape. It has all one needs to be at home. Comfy bed, fireplace with log waiting, clean pool & spa, very quiet, friendly staff. Will stay again.

Secret Hotel

Pros: Quiet, great location, fireplace, large room
Cons: Check in staff was not highly receptive, lacked any enthusiasm toward job.
Location: Great location, adjacent to Monterey for all the activities Wharf, Diving, Kayaking, Whale watching, hiking
I needed to book a last minute stay in Monterey for a Saturday night, while looking at pricing I received "sticker shock" so I decided to gamble on the "secret Hotel" button. WOW what a great place, lower price and a corner room with a fireplace in a quiet area of Pacific Grove 5 minutes from downtown Monterey. Older dated hotel but nice, quiet, clean, and easy to access.
