Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The workers at the front desk were always very friendly and helpful. The room has plenty of space. I did not use the fireplace, but it looks inviting. The room has a slight campfire smell. Breakfast is good with waffles, packaged oatmeal, pastries, hardboiled eggs and toast. I found the coffee really good. I feel safe here, my room was quiet, and the beach is nearby (walking distance). I would look forward to staying here again.

What a cute property. Everyone was nice, the room spacious, comfortable, clean, and had a wood burning fireplace. This hotel is one block from Asilomar State Park beach and so much quieter than staying in Monterey itself; and yet a 6-10 minute drive to shopping and dining. And, who doesn't love wine in the lobby daily at 4pm? We highly recommend this property. Oh, and its dog friendly.

I can’t stop talking about this hotel. I have recommended it to so many friends already. This place is family friendly and close to so many places that we wanted to visit- the state beach and the aquarium. The hosts are very kind.

Serene setting perfect for EV owners

Our stay at Pacific Gardens Inn was very nice and relaxing. The setting is beautiful and the ocean is a short hike. It is also a short drive to the Monterey Aquarium. A huge plus for EV owners are the two Charge Point charge stations on the property. We will definitely stay here again.

Loved the location. Wonderful hot tub! Charming room. Enjoyed the fireplace. Unfortunately, LIsa needs some education in customer relations. She was rude and unhelpful when I called to try to clear up and understand some confusing e-mails regarding changing our booking from Expedia to one made through Pacific Gardens. She hadn't sent the e-mails and so didn't know about them. Instead of agreeing to check with the colleague who had sent the e-mails, and then get back to me, she refused to acknowledge their existence or any confusion. Therefore, since I was unable to resolve the confusion, I didn't cancel my booking with Expedia and so was unable to take advantage of the savings offered me by another member of the staff if I booked with Pacific Gardens directly. Everything else about our stay was great, and so I plan to stay there again on my next visit to Pacific Grove, so sincerely hope I wont have to deal with LIsa at that time.
