Top hotels in Carmel Woods

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay
The service is absolutely wonderful and so is the hotel, well located. But we each have three devices so that means we need six outlets and it was hit and miss in the room because all the plugs are everywhere. I think they should be more located in one place…..that was frustrating.

The Monterey Hotel
No onsite parking but public parking guide available at reception. Located a 5 minute walk from Fisherman's Wharf, not to be confused with Cannery Row which is 1 mile up the road. Clean room and helpful staff!
