This is our second stay here. We love the fireplaces in the rooms, and the robes in the armoires are a nice touch as well. We enjoyed the free continental breakfast served in our room at the time of our choice. We were not around for the happy hour this trip, but look forward to taking advantage of it the next time we visit.

My stay was perfect and accommodations were beyond what I expected.
The staff was professional and in all my years staying at Monterey Hotels this boutique vibe is truly what I had been missing.
