Hotel Located in the Heart of Cannery Row
The Monterey Bay Inn is a unique property. It sits right on the Bay on Cannery Row. It does not have a restaurant or bar, but the location is close to many fine dining options. The room includes a wonderful continental breakfast that has warm muffins, fruit, yogurt, hard boiled egg and coffee that is brought to your room. The service us friendly and professional. I upgraded my room to the ocean view balcony. Wow! Was that a great idea. The views were stunning. The room is very large and comfortable. The bathrooms were also large. There are rwo hit tubs on the property but i did not bring my bathing suit so was sad to have not tried it. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Beautifully location. Close enough to the Cannary but yet far enough away from the more congested areaa of the Row.

Our favorite place to stay in Monterey! We love the comfortable beds, the quiet atmosphere, the rooftop hot tub and the oceanfront location. It’s heaven to sit on the balcony and watch all the life of the Bay.

Loved the ocean view from our balcony. We often saw sea otters, seals, and sea lions. Staff were helpful and rooms were very clean. Only thing they could improve on is the continental breakfasts. Would have loved to have had some vegan options or even cereal.

We loved the area but had to check out early due to the. Noise from the SeaLions on the beach below our window. 24/7 loud barking. Manager said it was unusual since they have never been there so gave us a refund for the unused nights. We were able book a beautiful motel in Carmel so very fortunate all around. Thanks to the manager for being flexible.

This was the perfect location for us! Right next to a beach, in between Cannery Row and Fisherman's Warf. Tons of shops, restaurants, things to see and do. 10 minute easy walk to the aquarium. Parking is covered and cheep for the area. The room was nice and clean. The view from the balcony was captivating. Binoculars in our room were used several times to check out otters, sea lions, pelicans, etc. Breakfast was a nice standard continental, and there were cookies in the afternoon. The sounds of the ocean and wild life were great, I miss that not living near the ocean anymore. Yes there is noise from wild life and people in the area, yes the parking spaces are a little tight, yes the mattress was a little on the firm side. But location, location, location.
