Top Carmel Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Carmel Highlands

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel and staff with beautiful views but a bit overpriced for their amenities and small pool area."

Carmel Resort Inn

10/10 Excellent

"."

Carmel Wayfarer Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel. Easy to walk to lots of restaurants and shops. The room was spacious. There was some street noise, the windows are very thin it seems. And the upstairs neighbors were kind of noisy. It has its own parking lot which is great, since street parking can be hard to find."

Stilwell Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property seems to be recently upgraded. The property feels like it was originally built as a cheap motel but the new owner modernized it, added nice upgrades and modern finishings. My stay here was smooth and comfortable. Staff and service was also attentive and helpful."

Pine Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful"

Carmel Inn And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great stop off in Carmel for a reasonable price. The staff were helpful and the rooms well maintained"

Carmel Valley Ranch, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so incredibly kind, and Chef Andrew created core memories for my family. The corral was also such a hit with the kids (and mom!). Would love to come back soon- highly recommend."
