Monterey Bay Lodge, hotel in Carmel Valley

Conveniently set in the center of Monterey, Monterey Bay Lodge provides free WiFi, a garden and free private parking for guests who drive.

I liked the room...until they did construction on the room next door early in the morning while we were staying two nights. Our toilet stopped working same morning. Told us they could move us to a downgraded room in the pouring rain. Then was told I would get compensated and didn't.

    It was such a magical place full of restaurants, wineries, and cute cafes. I especially enjoyed the community vibe there. The community park, the history center and the library were nice surprises. It was neat to learn a bit of history about the village. My kid loved it too.

    Beautiful weather and location - reasonable distance from SF for a nice getaway. Wish we could have organized a horseback riding trip or something but couldn't get my act together... need to reserve several days in advance.

    We mostly drove up here to see Big Sur but ended up spending some time in Carmel Valley. We were only here for one morning so we grabbed some coffee and breakfast from Cafe Luna (which was great) and we took the 17 mile drive scenic drive along the coast and made all the stops along the way. They give you a pamphlet upon entering the park, which costs $10.50. It was worth it!

    Carmel Valley is a lovely, picturesque town from which it is easy to get to Monterey and Carmel by the Sea. There are lovely hiking trails nearby. We especially enjoyed the Garland Ranch Park just down the road which has many trails of all levels of difficulty (walking and biking). There are numerous restaurants in Carmel Valley and the three we tried were all excellent (Cafe Rustica, Thai Village, Trailside Cafe). Great coffee and pastries at the Wild Goose Cafe too. BTW the picture for Carmel Valley is a bit misleading as it shows the coast on the Monterey Peninsula which is 17 miles away but easily accessible.

    Everything is so easy to access.

    Everything is so easy to access. Lots of good casual restaurants and services. The one outstanding shop that caught our attention was Qual & Olive that has a tremendous selection of California olive oils, vinegars and gifts.

    This place has a cute retro aesthetic and it had a great pool, hot tub, and ping pong table for use into the night. The pool overlooked the mountains and we had it mostly to ourselves which was great. We had a late check in and the staff was super accommodating and there was continental breakfast in the morning with great Carmel Valley coffee. The area nearby is full of vineyards and cute restaurants, although they do close a little early. Amazing spot!

    The staff was courteous and friendly. Check-in/out was a breeze. Pastries and coffee were available for breakfast each morning. The center common area in/around the pool is very nicely landscaped and maintained. The location of the property was perfect for why we visited the area. The shower in our room appears to have been recently redone. the shower was the best feature in the room. We had a pleasant stay.

    Sweet little property located in the Carmel valley area. Property is certainly old fashioned in its nature but as long as you are expecting this it is truly charming. Bed was extremely comfortable. Room was lovely with some quaint features such as the fire effect heater and a lovely sitting area.
