This was a great surprise for us. Usually the places around the beaches are rather scruffy but the room we were in looked like it had recently been redecorated but found out later it had been 5 years since redecoration. They do a good job at maintaining the quality. Their free continental breakfast is truly a complete breakfast. Coffee, fresh ...
The Good: The suite room 317 was very spacious, classy décor; the bed was fantastic if you like soft beds, huge bathroom all in marble. Continental breakfast is served to your room in the morning. 5 Minute walk to shops and 10 to the Aquarium. The Bad: Fee to park in their facility, but it beats running out to fill the meters. Bathroom could’ve used a heater, little cold with marble floors.
Our family of five had a wonderful time while staying at your hotel. Great location for golfing, shopping, and relaxation. We were very happy with our spacious room and beautiful and large bathroom!!! We had a ocean/harbor view which was wonderful, we were able to see all of the wildlife and all of the activity going on in the harbor. The staff was ...

Monterey Bay is the BEST! It is a place to get away and enjoy a relaxing vacation. The sounds of the ocean drift you to sleep.(ocean view room.) My husband and I have been returning to this romantic place for years. The view is breathtaking. The service is great! In fact, this is our refuge for peace. The rooms are always clean. It's a joy ...

The Monterey Bay Inn Calif.
The Good: Very friendly and great staff! The suite was a great room clean, classy décor, comfortable beds, a very nice big shower, outside Jacuzzi tub 4th floor great view of the bay! On the lower floors you can see the sea otters play right outside your balcony. With all the amenities and atmosphere you would want ...
after a phone call with "the floor desk manager" regarding a cancellation fee after 20 mins I will never book a room in that INN, rude lady... I can't imagine if you complain about something during you stay.
Location is wonderful and perfect for a trip to the aquarium. The ocean view rooms are fantastic if you enjoy watching otters and other wildlife from the balcony. Service is prompt and the staff is pleasant. The redecorated rooms are confortable and nicely appointed.
A word of warning, there is a fee to park in their facility, but it beats running out to fill the meters.

lots of $$ for lots of noise

Earlier this month, my family and i decided to take a week between the ending of our kids baseball season and the beginning of football season and travel to Monterey, primarily for the kids to see the Aquarium, but also for the beauty the area is known for. Upon our arrival at the MBI, the first portent that something was amiss was that we were ...
We chose the park view to save a little money since we didn't plan on spending much time in the room anyway. Our room was one room off of Cannery Row and we still had a beautiful ocean view and we slept with the sounds of the ocean coming through the open siding door. Very modern and beautiful room that was not missing anything. We've stayed in many different rooms on our travels--none nicer than this. We will be back.
Our room had a great view of the bay and the hotel staff was wonderful. The bathroom was an amazing experience all by itself, huge and all in marble. Walking distance to all the shops on Cannery Row and the Aquarium. The bed was fantastic if you like soft beds. The cons: Our breakfast arrived an hour late the first day, and they forgot the hot ...
