The staff was friendly and the check in was quick and easy. The room was larger than expected. The room was clean, beds were comfy and the hardwood floors were a plus since we were in town to scuba dive, wet gear and sand came in the room with us. This room was more than we expected for the rate we paid. I would definitely stay again. A hidden gem for a quick over night stay when you are not looking to have a beach front.

Dan is an amazing manager. He gave us an excellent stay at Carmel Hill Lodge. We also had a pet with us and they were on top of cleanliness and room service. They also had a dog area which was super helpful in our stay. When we come back to Monterey, we will be staying here again. Thank you Dan!

Vintage vibe facility but clean room and huge unit space. We did not get breakfast but the review option keeps asking me about breakfast 🤔 plenty of parking. Heater/AC unit is a bit loud but my family and I had a cozy night’s sleep.
