Julia
check in was not available until about 45 minutes after check-in time. Staff was nice, and room was clean. Excellent location if you are just looking for a place to sleep for the evening.
Stephanie
The location was excellent. We found new locations for delicious dining that we never new about before. Local wine tasting at Scheid was so fun and tasty and just a short walk away. Property is very dated, but clean.
Stephanie
Hotel was in a great location. Smelled propane gas in the morning but we had no fireplace. Thin floors, can hear people above a lot. Showed waffle makers in a pic but there were none.
Charles
Would recommend
Bonny
Great location for exploring Carmel. Breakfast was maybe basic continental? So many great breakfast restaurants in the area so we skipped that.
Julian
Property was in a prime location, walkable distance to town and well situated.
Becky
Great view of the ocean from the spacious balcony.
melanie
No bottled water in the room, the fire alarm kept going off from the steam in the shower. No air conditioning had to open windows all night so the alarm would not go off. The room was a little stuffy. Other than that the staff was accommodating and very friendly and helpful, the location great walking distance. No directions in elevator where front desk was? Our directions took us to the back parking lot and we couldn’t find the front desk for a bit since it’s 3 tiers. Clean and quiet
Patrick
Staff is friendly and helpful
Janet
Pretty hotel with lots of flowers. Nice room. Convenient to walking to shops.
Jaymi
We enjoyed our stay here. It was close to shopping, conveniently located, and the rooms wwre spacious and tidy.
Walter
Great location. Basic but clean
Susan
Fantastic location. You can walk to shopping, restaurants and beach. Comfortable and clean room. Good breakfast
Pamela
Room was severely slanted, smelled and our sliding door to get fresh air was missing a screen. Staff just said oh well that room doesn't have one even though the rest do, that's just the way it is. I feel every time I use Expedia to book rooms with hotels and not go direct they give me there least desirable room.
Mike
Bed was very comfortable. The entire room & bath were extremely clean.
Jeffrey
Very tired old property. Rooms were moldy smelling.
Mike
We stayed on the fifth floor. I would highly recommend it. The view from the rooms from the balcony on that floor are superior to those on the other floors.
the breakfast was average. Staff was helpful and the room was clean.

The location is very good for access to the Sunset center and those things associated with the Bach Festival we attended. The staff was great. The rooms were clean. The breakfast though wasn’t best. It was okay but nothing great.
John
Great place in great area
Elizabeth
Room was clean and bed was very comfy. The room is a bit outdated and there is no A/C, opening the window is a bit difficult as the windows are in clear view of everyone walking by and yesterday was pretty hot in Carmel.
Overall a nice option but probably wouldn’t stay again as my husband likes the room to be cooler.

Rooms could’ve been cleaned better found underneath a cabinet an empty bottle of Pringles potato chips. Breakfast was OKand a nice amenity.
Would have been helpful to know that Google usually directs you to the rear of the hotel versus the front on Junipero Street, where reception is located.

Clean room great breakfast friendly staff centrally located
jeffery
The staff was very kind, welcoming, and informative, and our room was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our stay. However, because there is no air conditioning, the room really needed a fan—especially when traveling in July. At the very least, ceiling fans would make a big difference during the warmer months. Breakfast was a nice perk, but it could definitely be improved by offering a larger variety of food. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but a few small upgrades would make the experience even better.
Mark
They do offer breakfast which is nice. However, they do close the pool way too early.
Randy
CPAP users should notify them that they require a room with electricity near the bed. Rooms are clean but dated. TV had no working volume, eggs and sausage was good but ran out at 9:00 am. Limited breakfast and coffee is much better in town with plenty of cute stores and a very safe feeling all around. Only a very tiny elevator to the breakfast lounge, no staircase noticed. If you like white noise you'll need to bring your own. Unfortunately we had loud children next door and thier wall banging was a bit much. Very convenient location to Restraunts and very nice shopping.
Mark
Location, cleanliness, friendly staff and comfortable room.
Crystal
Location was centrally located. Breakfast was hardy. We were set for our day of adventure in the area.
Andrew
We really enjoyed our stay!
James Nelson
We had the best time. Perfect location to walk to all the local places for dinner and drinks. We will be back.
Deanna
Excellent location and such a good view! We loved the fireplace in the room and the continental breakfast. Staff was very friendly and helpful!
Zaakirah
We enjoyed our stay here. The shower pressure was great, the sheets were clean, and the staff was friendly. Only con is that the walls are very thin so you can hear your neighbors on top and to the side of you

Carmel Bay View Inn was an excellent place to stay! The staff starting from the front desk to all staff members we interacted with were very friendly and helpful! When we asked for extra pillows or towels the response was prompt and cheerful. The room was very clean, well appointed, and the view was impressive! Parking availability was easy, well lighted, and provided close access to our room.
Located where easy walking to shops, restaurants, and a wonderful Deli/Grocery Market right by the Inn!
Easy to find as you drive into Carmel.
Highly recommend the Carmel Bay View Inn as we were able to book quickly and was a great value!!

We had a short visit and wish we could have stayed longer. The room was lovely and the gardens were beautiful. Rhe breakfast was excellent and well maintained. The pool hours were not posted and I tried to go for a morning swim but the pool was locked. The location is ideal for walking around Carmel.
Michael
Excellent place to stay in Downtown Carmel.. easy walking distance to everything!
Tiana
We love staying at Carmel Bay View Inn. The staff is always friendly, the rooms are always clean, and your minutes from the beach. Everything is walkable, shops, bars, restaurants. Definitely one of the best places to stay.

Alan

Sharon
The rooms do not have good sound insulation. We could hear the people above us walking around and using the bathroom. Feels more like a motel and is over priced. Great location. Breakfast was OK - nothing special.
Satoko

Zack

Maria
This is a wonderful choice for accommodations in Carmel. While my partner and I did not enjoy the area as it felt unwelcoming and overall unpleasant, this hotel was very nice and provided us with all of the necessary amenities.
Deborah
Beautiful stay, very friendly staff. We had a wonderful time.
Monica
The location was great and the rooms were clean and cute. Great value.
Alison
We loved our rooms on the fourth floor with balconies and fireplace. Rooms were a good size each with Keurigs and refrigerator. The bathrooms were small but loved having drawers in the vanity. Staff was friendly and front desk gave excellent advice. Breakfast room small but nice array of items ... every day there was coffee, juice, cereals, various breads (croissants to muffins to regular bread), scrambled eggs and either sausage or bacon, yogurt and fresh bananas to get our morning started.
Elevator is on the small side but we mostly walked. Many, many eateries and shops AND the bay all within walking distance. Bonuses...excellent parking and the inn is right next to Bruno's market! Have already sent my recommendation to two friends. We will be back!

Austin

ROLAND
We loved this place. Cute, clean, good parking, breakfast, friendly staff they checked all the boxes. We only stayed one night during our trek down PCH but this was the perfect place for us.
Ann
Expected more for the price.
Bethany
The hotel room was very clean, you can tell that they don't just do the basic bed turn down. I didn't see any dust in the bathroom. Staff were friendly & helpful.
Janice C
Very cute quaint hotel. I did not realize there was no ac, but it wasn’t needed. We opened the windows in the evening and were completely comfortable all night. The water pressure in the shower was amazing! The grounds are very cute and well maintained. Very walkable to all the shops and food.
Regina
Room is clean. Great location, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Morning staff are friendly and accommodating but Night staff is a different story no help during night time, called multiple times for help but no answer went to the front desk and saw the staff sleeping at 12am. All in all good experience just make sure you don't need anything at night.
Victoria
Staff were super friendly and room was well maintained. The location is perfect to have ease of access to the shopping area, restaurants, and only a 15 minute walk from the ocean/bay area. I don't recommend having your own vehicle unless it is a small, compact size, if you can help it. The parking was limited in the lot and side streets (as expected of a high tourist area), and spots were quite narrow. I saw many a person struggling to get through with their SUVs and cars getting sideswiped. I just used Uber if needing to go out well beyond the Carmel Shopping area.
Geoffrey
I have usually stayed at hotels a little closer to the bay but from now on when I visit, I’m going to stay here. The views from the decks are just amazing and it’s easy walking distance to a ton of stuff also less expensive than many of the options just a few blocks west. it was clean. It was quiet. The staff were incredibly helpful. The breakfast was simple and unremarkable but totally functional. I didn’t use the pool this time, but it looked very nice.
john
Clean room and a very helpful staff. Parking was ok, just find a space but a few are a bit tight. Continental breakfast was fine.
The room was clean and spacious, there is a lack of power outlets but the staff helped out with an extension cord for a medical device needed at the bedside.

Kristina

Cyd
Loved everything about this motel -- parking, cleanliness, staff, breakfast, proximity to shopping and restaurants.
Jody
Breakfast was just ok
Michael
Very convenient location as the property was easy walking distance to all shops restaurants and the beach in downtown Carmel. Could be a little noisy with the older building with hearing the water flow in the plumbing from adjacent rooms.
Clare
Staff were helpful and kind
Carol
Convenient location to be able to walk the town. Nice warm pool. The breakfast was healthy.
Troy
Front desk and check in awesome. Two guys working very friendly and willing to accommodate. Very professional.
Jackie
The hotel is in a great location, nice room with a very comfortable bed and loved the fireplace. Parking was very easy at the property and the staff was lovely. The breakfast was minimal, but we usually go out for breakfast so that was not a priority. We loved our stay at the hotel and looking forward to returning soon.
Michele
Beautiful grounds-loved all of the flowers around the hotel. Location was perfect as all of the restaurants and shops were walkable from the hotel.
Patrick
This property was a pleasant surprise. Great location, staff were great and the room was nice and had a great view. Breakfast was 7 out of 10 but appreciated. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone considering staying here.
Ruzanna
Room was so good, clean, ocean view. My husband and I had excellent time. Thank you

Raquel
Location was perfect!! Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Staff was amazing, very kind and helpful! Breakfast was simple but had your basics to start your day.
Mark
We liked being in Mariposa with easy access to downtown shops and restaurants it’s perfect. Our only complaint was that the a/c was poor. Other than that I would recommend this property.
Michelle
There is no mirror in the room, I feel we got the worst room!
Jean
Clean room with an easy walk to the top of Ocean Ave. friendly staff.
Steve
Very nice. Great location.
Tad E
Great location. Pretty hanging flower baskets. Beautifully newly renovated bathrooms. One of our rooms had visible water damage on the ceiling. Comfortable beds. Easy parking. Walking distance to restaurants, bakeries, stores, and for viewing the beach!
Matthew
This place was a very affordable stop in a very expensive area of the country. Overall, the hotel was kept clean and I was very satisfied with my stay.
LAUREN
The only thing we liked about this place was the proximity to Ocean Avenue. We were on the second floor over the parking lot and WOW, you can hear everything all the time. Cars coming and going, doors slamming, suitcase wheels rattling, loud talking. Our room was decent but not what you’d expect in downtown Carmel. The rooms are not entirely soundproof and the plumbing is in dire need of an overhaul. You can hear everyone’s shower like it’s a thunderstorm and there is a lot of air in the pipes which means you’re hearing tons of “knocking” and banging. It was a constant interference, drowning out the tv and then waking us up in the middle of the night. Our bed was ok but the pillows were weird. They were both hard and lumpy. There was no real comforter on the bed and no extra bedding or blankets in the closet. For $200+ a night you want some quiet and comfort and some nice touches in your room.
Donna
This charming, older hotel is perfectly situated to all of walkable downtown Carmel by the Sea. We stayed in Room 505 (king corner room with fireplace), which had the most magical view of the mountains and ocean. The room was very spacious and comfortable with a balcony. The staff was courteous, breakfast was plentiful, next door to a full service market, and just far enough away from the crowds on Ocean Avenue. Would definitely stay again!
Jamie
This is a great place and a great location!!! A few blocks to walk to town and restaurants. Hotel breakfast daily. We would stay here again.
paula
Very clean, comfortable bed and excellent location for our visit in Carmel!
Yasmeen
The location was quite charming, and we were given a great room right by the pool (which was very clean & well maintained)! The room itself was cozy and comfortable, with a large bathroom and windows. One huge benefit was being able to park our car right outside the room, just steps away from our door. The man at the front lobby was very kind and welcoming. Check-in and check-out were a breeze.
Margaret
The location was wonderful. We could easily walk to the stores, restaurants and beach. The rooms were clean and updated. It was a bit noisy as the window needed to be kept open to cool the room.
Dr Terry
It was very centrally located and quiet and we loved that. It had a free breakfast but we were there for 9 days and stopped eating there after day 3 because it was repetitious and my wife struggled with the lack of fruit and fresh food
ELVIA
Very well kept property. Fresh look everywhere, paint, bathroom, shower etc.
The breakfast room was great too, eggs, bacon or sausage. Danish , Bagels, Cereal, Toast just enough of the basics for the morning.

The property was very clean and in a prime location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The parking was easy. Their continental breakfast was basic, as expected. I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, and would return again.
Mikhail
Conveniently located, ample parking, pool. Rooms are spacious and clean but dated. Many rooms face the parking lot or walkways, noise isolation is very poor: you hear your neighbors on all sides and above, you hear other travelers walking by your window, you hear cars etc. Breakfast is edible and I would leave it at that. The whole thing reminded me of a roadside motel - functional but not memorable.
Michael
👍
Michael
Good location and decent value near downtown Carmel. Room was clean and spacious, however the bed was not particularly comfortable and because there was no cross-ventilation or A/C, leaving windows open made for a noisy environment and limited privacy. Plumbing was also very noisy and toiletries were not high quality.
Breakfast was passable, but the scrambled eggs lacked flavor and the OJ seemed very watered down. Of course, there are plenty of great breakfast options nearby if you're looking elsewhere.
Ultimately, not a bad accommodation choice, but not a great one.

Everything was great, clean quiet room. Amenities were great. Parking was a little inconvenient.
