We loved our room and the view! It was very romantic. The little extras of champagne upon arrival and a wine hour were lovely to enjoy in the ample lobby rooms. We thought the breakfast would be a bit more elaborate but there were certainly enough choices to satisfy most people. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Great location, we would love to visit again!

Victorian hotel with ocean views. Right across the street from the ocean. Open your windows at night and listen to the ocean and let it ease you into sleep. Take a short walk to Lover’s Point, the beach or dining. The staff is wonderful and very helpful. Can’t wait to return

Lovely boutique hotel with a great location and incredible views of Monterey bay. Beautiful design everywhere, from the lovely gardens to the lobby and rooms. You notice the high attention to detail in every corner. Excellent service too, from the receptionist at the check-in counter to the breakfast and cleaning staff. I would love to return for a longer stay soon.

The Seven Gables Inn pills out all the stops to make their guests feel welcome and comfortable. The property is absolutely beautiful, and to be able to sit in the lobby and watch sea otters, seals, sea lions and other wildlife is pretty special. It’s a short walk to restaurants and the spectacular Monterey Bay Aquarium, and a quick and lovely drive or bike ride through 17 Mile Road to Carmel. Absolutely lovely place to stay - felt five stars all the way!

A lovely, picturesque, Victorian boutique hotel with the most amazing location and incredible views of Monterey Bay from the room. You notice the attention to every detail in the interior decor and the manicured gardens all around the property. Wonderful staff and service, great breakfast with healthy choices included. My husband and I enjoyed walking the coastal trail from Lover’s Point to historic Cannery Row and back to Pacific Grove, breathing the fresh air, watching the otters and other wildlife and lush vegetation around the path and stopping every few steps for yet another picture with incredible views. I would highly recommend staying at this hotel when visiting the Monterey area.
