Carmel-by-the-Sea hotels near Carmel Beach

Cons: Paid LOTS of money for a room with a king size bed. This place is NOISY. The sound of people flushing their toilets or running their showers is incredible. The banged up used furniture in our room needs replacing. Knobs were missing from the end tables and chest. The upholstery on the two chairs were pathetic. We parked on the street because this hotel does not have enough parking spaces to accommodate guests. WILL NOT STAY HERE AGAIN.

Cons: grossly overpriced motel.

Cons: The filth and beat up furniture...scummy place!

Cons: The furniture was scuffed and worn which made a poor first impression.

Cons: Slightly softer beds

Cons: Breakfast was just okay and the bathroom was dated. The internet didn’t work well

Cons: We had a dispute with the two clerks on duty regarding our reservation: they thought that we had reserved three rooms while in fact we had only two. After a cordial greeting, the discussion turned into arguments. In the end we found that they have misread our reservation. No apologies were offered. Some patience and a simple "sorry" would have helped.

Cons: Bathroom needs to be updated.

Cons: Rooms a little small

Cons: No bottled water in room

Cons: Have no complaints!

Cons: on-street parking only.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Didn't have double room available that was booked. Noisy. Overpriced for what it offered.

Cons: Very noisy! Don’t underestimate the other reviews. They’ve got an old steam-based heating system that has a ton of air in it. As a result, you will get woken up all throughout the night to loud banging noise, like someone is taking a hammer to a steal pipe. The sound is coming out of the heater in the room. Do not choose this hotel if you want a good nights sleep. Also very dated rooms. The quality of the room is about what you’d expect from a Travelodge, it does not in any way live up to the $400+ price tag.

Cons: Their premier ocean view rooms looked like a holiday In or 3 star hotel at the best. Very poor design and ambiance. Bad holiday in furniture , plastic trees and plants. I expected more for $500 per night, at least rooms that looked better. Also, rooms have no balconeys and hotel does not have a jacuzzi. It is possible that the hotel is offering value for the budget traveller (hard to imagine at over $500 per night). I did notice that better hotels where 30% more expensive when I was in Carmel. I would have preferred to pay about 30% more for better accomadations.

Cons: Heater was on full blast on arrival, thermostat issues, TV needed to warm up before working properly, very poor customer service, & there was suspicious "stain" on comforter. They did end up giving us a 20% discount off room rate for the thermostat inconvenience at time of checkout.

Cons: Parking difficult later in the evening.

Cons: not in Carmel proper, had to drive and park, too far to walk to town,

Cons: Don't get the breakfast buffet, the food served was the only downside of an otherwise great stay.

Cons: In room thermostat went from 60 to 80- it would not hold temp near 70 degrees. Restaurant has only bar food.

Cons: It's right off of a major road, which is convenient but not as quaint and quiet as the rest of Carmel. Still a great value!

Cons: Nothing!

Cons: The power was out and we had to take cold showers. With comfort inn being such a big chain, there should have been a back up generator for situations like this. We live in the 21st century where technology and science are at its peak. The host or person who worked in the front (Gita) was not apologetic, nor were we informed about the situation. Such an expensive stay with mediocre service and hospitality. When we told her that we took cold showers, she was like ohh well I didn’t because I woke up early...like wow....

Cons: Bathroom separated from the sink.

Cons: streets in this specific neighborhood are not good for walking.

Cons: The rooms definitely need updating and the staff need more training in handing guest services.

Cons: Reviews promised a hot tub so we were disappointed that there wasn't one. Breakfast was nothing special - sugary muffins and sugary yogurt, we had to go out to get a real breakfast.

Cons: Area was dark, stand alone room was probably an old shed, floor was creaky, bathroom door not to code, half the size it should be, toilet plugged up, bed was so uncomfortable, spiders in the bathroom. We were so tired and had no other choice, so paying $112 for this was very unsettling. We will never go back, please remove any stars you have on this property.
