Nice hotel with the best location!

Pros: Liked: Location, bed & pillow comfort, quietness, customer service, convenience of in-room continental breakfast
Cons: The only issue we had was with the room cards not working repeatedly! The staff was very accommodating but it was frustrating.
Location: Waterfront on the bay. Whale watching, restaurants, Monterey Bay Aquarium, drive to plenty of beaches and state parks.
The location of this hotel was perfect for our vacation....just a mile walk to where the whale watching boats depart, and a pleasant walk in the other direction finds you along Cannery Row and within walking distance to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The rooms were very comfortable and spacious, with a great view of the water! The bed and pillows met my picky demands and were very comfortable. The shower was great - the perfect pressure!

overnighter

Pros: The room was large and had everything we needed.
Cons: Better listing on the "view ".
Location: The location was good. We walked to dinner and shopping.
We came to stay for one night. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was huge. Down fall we booked a balcony room with view. Got there and were on the street side view of the parking garage. Not a view. Disappointed and street was noisy.

Pros: Very clean room, great bathroom design, gorgeous view of the beach. Perfect light breakfast delivered to your door!
Cons: This is minor, but the ratio of coffee to creamer provided was not proportional. But the coffee and the breakfast was delicious!
Location: Beach, Cannery Row, Kayaking, Boating, Aquarium, Restaurants, Shops... ALL within walking distance
Check in and out was a breeze. Room was exactly the the pictures on their website. Clean, comfortable, I never wanted to leave!

nice stay

Pros: Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
Cons: parking fee
Pay the extra for the ocean front room. The sound of the waves is soothing, even if it is too cold to sit on the balcony. Basic continental breakfast: danish, croissant,hard boiled egg, fruit, yogurt, but it IS delivered to your room! Staff was friendly and helpful. short walk to restaurants, aquarium, movie theater, shops. On site parking (but for a charge! like you aren't already paying to be there! not sure how you'd get there without a car, so that kind of annoys me.)

This Hotel has spectacular views! It is very quiet and quaint.

Pros: Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
Cons: parking fee
I will be back for sure! The Hotel staff was very helpful and had great customer service. I really liked the complimentary Breakfast that was delivered to our room. We woke up a little earlier than expected and called the staff to have the Breakfast delivered earlier. They were at our door within minutes! This is a great location and is walking distance to all of the main attractions in Monterey.

Thoroughly delightful hotel

Pros: Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
Cons: $15 for parking
We had a wonderful stay at Monterey Bay Inn. Starting with the staff, who made us feel welcome and took good care of us, to the well-appointed room with a bay/ocean view. Even though it was foggy, the garden below was delightful. Room was immaculate. Staff even helped us figure out the television. The location is perfect for a walk down Cannery Row, a visit to the Monterey Aquarium, and finding good food. I would recommend it.

Wonderful gem in Monterey!

Pros: Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Quiet
The location is perfect---right at the end of Cannery Row and walking distance to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, restaurants, shopping, and activities. This hotel far exceeded my expectations! Starting with the super friendly staff, especially Jessica, to the breath-taking ocean view room! There were cookies and apples in the lobby waiting for us upon check-in and a very nice continential breakfast delivered to our room in the morning. We loved the plush robes and roof-top jacuzzi! The room was spacious, especially the bathroom, super comfortable bed and lovely balcony. We will certainly return!
