“Very unimpressed”

This hotel was recommended by a colleague of mine. I found out later it was 10 years ago he stayed here. The only good about the hotel is the front desk staff and the location. Both were exceptional. The room decor was so poor, I would have rather camped. The carpet was stained. The fireplace was weak and turned itself off and on frequently. We were interruped in the morning at 830 am by non-English speaking maids who couldn't explain why they were there. Very poor accomodations. Spend the extra $50 and stay in a nice hotel... it's well worth it and there are plenty.

“Good Location”

When I arrived at the hotel, I said "Hello" and two bored staff members (on the PC and watching TV) :"Hello, the room isn´t ready before 3 p,m." And my question"Excuse me, are there any restrooms here?" was answered with "No, we have no restrooms!" Anyway, they ried to give me a room with a view to a wall, but after I´ve asked patient for another one, I got a room on the 1st level next to the pool. How surprising,, it was free at 2.5p.m. The room was spacious, clean, warm, comfortable. The pool heated, big enough for swimming and the man (another one than the day before) in the lobby the very next day very polite and helpful. The breakfast was good and til 10.30 a.m. There are very different kinds of rooms, with ocean view (3rd floor), with no view, with parking lot view..... and the same price, that´s not okay If I would go there again, I would ask for a room with a nice view in advance.

Area recommendations
If you like shops and crowded beaches in the summer, you should go there. And if you like nature you should stay there and do the scenic drive (17 mi drive isn´t worth the money) and go to Point Lobos Nationalpark. Make sure you have enough time, it´s amazing. You see sea lions, otters......

“Must Love Dogs”

Will never stay anywhere else again,great view, perfect location. Deli right next door. Be sure to get a room with an ocean view, so worth it. So nice to sit on your own private balcony, perfect Valentines weekend.

“Expecting a Bay View?”

Disappointed with Carmel. There are dogs everywhere even IN restaurants. Unless you are an dog lover this is not the place for you.

“Good stay in Carmel”

This Best Western is located in a convenient location within Carmel. It is walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The room is generally quiet. The buildings are old but the rooms have been updated. Pretty decent for location and price.

“Would stay here again.”

The room was recently remodeled and was very clean and nicely decorated. The Check-in and Check-out process was very quick - front desk was very friendly and accomodating. The hotel is in a perfect location - being close to restaurants and the village shops. The village has the feeling of an old European village with it's sidewalks and shops tucked in between buildings and courtyards.

Area recommendations
Carmel by the Sea village. Close to the beach, quaint buildings/homes and shops/restaurants.
Must see
17 mile ocean drive.
Outdoors or beach
Beautiful beach and shoreline - right at the village.
