Recent Central California hotel reviews by fellow wanderers

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa
"Nicest hotel either of us has ever stayed in. First time I ever used valet parking or room service. Both were worth it ! Only complaint I have is that we were told that there was no shuttle from the hotel to the aquarium. It's not a shuttle but a city bus that looks like a trolley car. We found it by accident. So if you don't wanna walk to the aquarium, I suggest seeking it out !"
