Outstanding. Couldn’t ask for a better location. Yes the hotel is older and there is no elevator. So make sure your suitcase is light enough to carry up a narrow flight of stairs. BUT, the property is fantastic. Wine or champagne reception, a 100 million dollar view of the ocean, waking up to the sound of waves crashing on the beach made this a spot my wife and I will travel to again and again. Breakfast was one of the best I’ve ever had. Well worth it.

We were very excited about this getaway, and this establishment certainly lived up to our expectations. We stayed in the Julia room, which offered an absolutely stunning view of the ocean through its large windows. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, with one minor exception: there were no refreshments provided during wine time. In our experience at other bed and breakfasts in Pacific Grove, cheese and other refreshments are typically offered with wine. Additionally, the room we occupied did not have a refrigerator, although a small cooler was kindly provided to accommodate our needs. The architectural details of this building are truly outstanding. We absolutely loved our stay at Seven Gables and anticipate returning in the near future.

This was my second time staying at Seven Gables and it did not disappoint. We stayed in the Ocean Mist room - it was palatial, we had a gorgeous view of the ocean, and the bed was soo comfy. I love all the finishing touches of this spot, from the welcome glass of champagne, the nightly wine and cookie hours, and the delicious buffet breakfast each morning - all included. This hotel is on the coastal walking path that goes right into Monterey or up to the lighthouse (great spot to watch the sunset) and its a quick walk into pacific grove, close to great restaurants and some cute shops. Staying here is always a treat.
