This is our second stay here. The staff is so kind and accommodating. They get to know you and are happy to help. This place is pet friendly and you see so many well behaved happy dogs. The rooms have wood floors and spacious bathrooms. This is great when you have a pup. The hot tub is an awesome perk after a long day of bike rides. You can walk down to the ocean, it’s only about a half mile. It’s a great spot if you bike as we can bike pretty much anywhere from here. We saw lots of golfers staying here as well so that’s a good sign if you’re into that. They also have a fire pit you can hang out at in the evening. The front desk area serves coffee in the mornings. They were very happy to see our pup. The beds are pretty high off the ground, but I do know they have accessible rooms if that would be a challenge for you.

We booked for three nights and had to leave early after only one night. We received a partial refund ($150 of $500) and were charged $350 for one night. The room was very small; no table; and, nominal coffee etc. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Probably would not stay again.

Room small. No where to put clothes. Furniture chipped and one inch crack under door letting in light and possible rodents. Heat unable to regulate and made a lot of noise, waking us. Crack in closet door mirror. Flat pulled and lumpy bed. Bathroom had moldy smell. Rusty bathtub.

This hotel was amazing! So cute and very Monterey. Dog friendly and had puppy’s running all over. The office had a live feed of the Otter habitat from the Monterey Bay Aquarium which was a perfect touch. If you are looking to kick off an amazing Monterey weekend with a beautiful girl I would highly recommend Monterey Peninsula Inn and do yourself a favor and start at the hot tub!! ❤️

The lady at the front desk was absolutely a beautiful soul. The room was clean. I had the room with the kitchen and I feel like it could be stocked a little more but we made it work. The one downside is I was going to get in the hot tub and the people around said it was cold so we didn’t go in.
