Very cute property. I marked it down for 2 reasons: (1) bathroom has a sliding door with a 2” gap that is easy to peer in and out of and is not private so if you’re traveling with a new partner, just something to be cautious of, and (2) my room was not quiet at all. I’m not a light sleeper but I could hear road noises and sounds of people walking by and setting up at the park across the street. Overall, the property is cute, and I love the patio social hour. I would probably come back!

Hotel is in a great location. Breakfast is limited. They only offer social hour and not happy hour so no discounted drinks or special rates for guests. Limited menu for F&B at full price. Rooms were super cute. Not a lot of storage space. Walkable to everything on Ocean Ave. A little noisy with traffic but not too bad.

Charming, luxurious property in an ideal location. Rooms are petite, but all three of our rooms had fireplaces —. elegant, comfortable and inviting. Ritz Carlton quality bedding. Staff is warm and welcoming. Snafu in the reservation, but Stephanie Lewis, the General Manager was exceptional in how she resolved the issue. Master class in professional hospitality. Highly recommend and I will stay here again with my family in the future!

Le Petit Pali on Ocean Ave offers a charming experience from the moment you arrive, with a complimentary sparkling drink to welcome guests and beautiful teacups provided in each room for enjoying morning or afternoon tea. Our stay on the 4th of July was made even more special by the patriotic symphony performance in the neighboring park across the street, which provided a delightful soundtrack for hours. The location is wonderfully convenient, with a small market within walking distance. The hotel thoughtfully provides reusable bags for guests to carry groceries to and from their rooms, which is both practical and environmentally conscious.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Carmel at Le Petite Pali. Great location, fantastic breakfast, close to shopping, restaurants and everything Carmel has to offer. All this proximity to town and central location, comes with extra traffic noise. But it’s offset with amazing breakfast and hospitality!
