Carmel is a wonderful place to visit, we were lucky that the weather was so GOOD. The town has many great shops, restaurants and art galleries. It is a wonderful pace to celebrate a special occasion and there is Pebble Beach and the 17 mile drive!!AAnonymousUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Carmel is a cute, charming seaside town with plenty of shopping and restaurants. Mostly all parking is on-street parallel parking. The Adobe Inn, where we stayed, is located within a block of all the restaurants and shops and even has its own parking garage located below the Inn. At night the town pretty much clears out after 9 or 10, but walking back to the Inn felt safe. The town is also a great base if you are planning on visiting Monterey, 17 Mile Drive, or Big Sur.MariettaUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Carmel is the jewel in the PCH crown.
Carmel is the jewel in the PCH crown. A beautiful spot with its own personality. The cutest shops, amazing food and outstanding beaches. Super close to Big Sur and also the 17 Mile Drive - make sure you visit Peeble Beach Golf Club!

The morning and afternoon is the best time to spend it in Carmel. During night time it’s not lit up as you think it would be. But during the day it’s absolutely amazing. All the shops, cafes, restaurants. The walking. Everything is near by. The beach to the town is like 10 min walk. We stayed for 3 nights and 4 daysAAnonymous - 10Scored 10

The little cottage like room was cute and clean, so nice to be able to take our little dog with us, nice to have our own parking space, our door didn’t lock and a staff member fixed it right away, hoping to stay in another little cabin soon, this is our second time, our first cabin had a living room, and spacious. Had breakfast at the tuck box, the tea and scones delicious along with fluffy omelette so Yummy can’t wait to come backMaryUnited States of America

- From $170.18 per night7.6Scored 7.6GoodRated good· 1,349 reviewsUnlike a hotel or motel, these are cabins, so you don't hear noises from neighboring walls. Set in a lot of foliage, trees, bushes, flowers, grass, great small pond surrounded by lounge chairs and tables and chairs, a River Rock BBQ pit, pretty, clear small lights strung over and about; quiet, room itself very comfortable and everything worked; close enough to drive to the enchanting Ocean Ave. Downtown Carmel by the Sea shops within 5 minutes, to enjoy all of the wonderful shops and restaurants.
LindaUnited States of America - From $227.54 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 969 reviewsThis property is located within walking distance of everything in Carmel by the Sea. Check-in was easy and Inge was very helpful showing us everything on the map and giving us parking instructions. It was great to have a fireplace in the room. The room had a fridge, microwave and coffee supplies. There are tables outside to have a glass of wine (you can borrow glasses from the office) or lunch and enjoy the pretty flowers on the grounds. It’s an older hotel but charming and well taken care of.
MeganUnited States of America - From $242.97 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 1,568 reviewsNice to be in town, but not flooded with main street tourists. Quiet but still close to everything. This hotel has Carmel Valley Roasters coffee in the rooms and lots of beautiful blooming flowers everywhere you look. The parking is also exceptional as there is a drive through loop behind the hotel and lots of spaces so you are not afraid to drive out for day trips for fear of losing the only space you've got. My dogs were very happy here as well. Super nice staff. Thanks!!!SharonUnited States of America
- From $234.26 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 1,031 reviewsWe love Carmel By the Sea and we absolutely LOVED this Inn. Location was perfect and so close to many shops and restaurants. It is also very close to Big Sur and Monterey. Our room was perfect for us for our Anniversary stay. Room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The employee that checked us in was very polite and helpful. Parking for our room was right under our room which meant no one downstairs. Another nice feature!LuanaUnited States of America
- From $276.63 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 1,207 reviewsIts a neat, simple hotel, and well located in Carmel. Easy to walk down to main Carmel streets for accessing restaurants and shops. We had a room on the top floor - which had an outstanding view of the Carmel town and a sea view. The property is located on a slight incline - which makes the views even better. Rooms are spacious, but simple.
SalilIndia - 8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 841 reviewsCharming boutique Inn built in the 1940's but well maintained. REAL fireplaces in the rooms! Excellent hot breakfast. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Reasonably close to the main street in downtown Carmel. Carmel is "downhill" from the Inn...a nice walk to the town but best to Uber/Lyft back to the Inn after dinner.
GaryUnited States of America - From $255 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 490 reviewsExtremely comfortable bed, best dreaming I’ve had in a while. Peaceful secluded location away from traffic and city noise, and just 10-15 mins away from Carmel and Monterey Bay. Very pet friendly, loved seeing all the dogs with neighboring cottages.
