Cozy babymoon

Stayed here for our babymoon and we really enjoyed it. It was tucked away and private and the grounds were beautiful. We enjoyed getting our breakfast up in the room by the fire. The bed was super cozy and the sheets were so soft

This property has a lot of charm. If you happen to have trouble with stairs, this one is not for you. We enjoyed visiting with the guests during happy hr in the living room and in the morning at breakfast. The gardens are beautiful. Wendy was very nice and accommodating.

Such a neat place! We booked the library room and it was awesome! Just the right mix of old style and modernization. Somehow I missed that there was no AC but that’s my fault for not reading - not theirs. The staff was amazing and the property was absolutely beautiful. The bed was comfortable and our breakfast was exceptional and delivered right to our room. I’d recommend this place to anyone.

Great vintage Inn with a long history. the vibe is really great inside out. staff was great and the breakfast is very interesting. food is fresh and you get to eat with other guests in the dining room (or you can opt for eating in your room). room is clean and comfortable but not too spacious.

Five stars is not high enough - The Old Monterey Inn deserves seven, at least. Wendy and her staff were wonderful. They made and served us an unstinting early breakfast when we had to leave for a flight before the normally scheduled breakfast. The Grand Tudor house was beautiful and perfectly furnished in the common areas. We had the Garden Cottage, outside the house, and highly recommend its accessibility, the added pleasure of a secluded patio, we were visited by hummingbirds as we had morning coffee on the patio, and best of all, Wendy’s well mannered and affectionate cats, Ivy and Theo, visited each day. We already knew we loved Monterey County. The Old Monterey Inn made it even better.

Cute clean bed and breakfast. The breakfast they serve every morning is straight out of a 5 Star restaurant in my opinion. The atmosphere is to die for. We stayed in the Library, cutest coziest room I’ve ever stayed in. The room is a vacation all on its own. Already planning our next stay we loved it so much

Such an Amazing Adventure! We stayed in the library room and experienced quite a find! There are 6 journals hidden amongst the many interesting books and it was fun to read about other people's adventures. Before we left, we added a little surprise to some of the books and are hoping that those who stay after us will appreciate the game of hunt and search!
