Location was perfectly situated between Cannery Row and Fisherman’s Wharf. Staff was welcoming and helpful in suggestions for around town. Room with an Ocean view was more than a view - it hovered over the water and the crashing waves were soothing! We will definitely be back!

Excellent location with amazing ocean views! Loved hearing and seeing the barking seals and sea lions. Lots of otters as well. Room was extremely clean with a very comfortable well made bed and pillows. Beautiful spacious bathroom. Both hot tubs and fire pit are nice amenities. Front desk staff and housekeeping were so nice and friendly. Couldn’t ask for better, they do their job well. Breakfast was perfect. Whale watching, Fisherman’s wharf, Cannery Row and driving distance to some other cool towns. Loved my recent stay and hope to be back again someday.

We stayed at Monterey Bay Inn for 4 nights and never had a problem. Hotel was clean and close to the marina, restaurants, and shops. The room was spacious and the bed was firm (that is the way we like it). Breakfast was brought to the room every morning (muffins, yogurt, fresh fruit). We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching all the wildlife. We would definitely stay here again.
