In close proximity to Point Lobos State Park, and short distance to Big Sur, this hotel offers relaxing activities and exploration of the California coastline.

the breakfast is quite possibly one of the most incredible things about this hotel. They provide it with your reservation, and it is cooked for you, offered in the room or at a beautiful outdoor courtyard on property with a fireplace. The staff was very helpful, and offered amenities like free rides up the hill to the center of town. This hotel is down by the beach, just a block away, which is why I chose to stay here vs 6 blocks up hill in the center of town. It is quiet, private, a nice sanctuary. they place a lot of emphasis on their spa and the bathrooms. Those latter are amazing, each (I believe) has a tub with bath salts, etc, plus robes, slippers. I did not try the spa, but it seemed to be a destination for many of those staying there. (We were there in the offseason, February). The hotel’s food is quite good too although we only had snacks and a couple drinks at their bar. I believe the rates are a good value, for what you receive.

Carmel-by-the-Sea is a very nice place. It's quite touristic but that's all in the game. Therefore you get very nice beaches and shops. The hotel rooms are quite spacious.
This boutique hotel in Carmel is less than two blocks away from unique shopping, galleries and fine dining and Ocean Avenue, the main street, is just 3 blocks away.
I loved the cleanliness and breakfast was on point!

This is our third time coming to Carmel, and if I win the lotto, I will buy here. It is like nothing else you can experience on the West Coast. There are so many shops, wine tasting, hundreds of wonderful restaurants, and, did I say shopping? We coordinated this trip with a concert at the Sun Set Center. If you can attend a concert there, you will not be let down. It was amazing and within walking distance.

Carmel is a wonderful place to visit, we were lucky that the weather was so GOOD. The town has many great shops, restaurants and art galleries. It is a wonderful pace to celebrate a special occasion and there is Pebble Beach and the 17 mile drive!!

Carmel is a cute, charming seaside town with plenty of shopping and restaurants. Mostly all parking is on-street parallel parking. The Adobe Inn, where we stayed, is located within a block of all the restaurants and shops and even has its own parking garage located below the Inn. At night the town pretty much clears out after 9 or 10, but walking back to the Inn felt safe. The town is also a great base if you are planning on visiting Monterey, 17 Mile Drive, or Big Sur.

The morning and afternoon is the best time to spend it in Carmel. During night time it’s not lit up as you think it would be. But during the day it’s absolutely amazing. All the shops, cafes, restaurants. The walking. Everything is near by. The beach to the town is like 10 min walk. We stayed for 3 nights and 4 days

Although a little crowded before Christmas, we loved Carmel.
Although a little crowded before Christmas, we loved Carmel. A lot of good restaurants to eat, not cheap, but a long list of great places. Friendly people. Great beach and other beaches near by. You can visit Monterey, close by.
The front desk manager, Mike, was one of the loveliest people we have ever met. My six year old daughter went down to get me coffee every morning and she and Mike formed a delightful friendship during our five days there. I am usually very uncomfortable in hotel beds, but my daughter and I both agreed we got some of the best rest of our lives during our stay. Extremely comfy bed! The hotel is elegant and charming, and in the heart of downtown Carmel. We would not hesitate to visit again. Lovely stay, thank you.
We loved our stay at this stunning hotel. Beautiful inside and out, and in the perfect location for exploring Carmel. We could see everything we wanted to by foot, including the beach (just prepare for the climb on the way back up!) and fairytale cottages. The breakfast was delicious, and the wine and nibbles every afternoon was a brilliant touch - we loved it and spent a few hours every day of our stay enjoying the wine in the sunshine. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Friendly staff and the front desk was excellent and super helpful with directions about the area, especially to my wife because she had to find me after running the Big Sur Marathon, which was also coviniently located less than block from the bus boarding area to the race. The free breakfast was also excellent. I will come to this hotel from now on. Extra: Centrally located within walking distance to all shops and restaurants in Carmel
The property is right off Hwy 1 and very conveniently located for you to get to Big Sur and only a couple of minutes away from Carmel by the Sea. Across the street is also a grocery store, coffee shop, and lots of dining options. The property is nice and clean with a mid modern century vibe. We paid for deluxe room with a balcony and views overlooking the pool and mountains. Also free parking and Wi-Fi is a bonus.
The room was very spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Due to covid the breakfast area was closed but they gave us a daily starter bag with water, juice, a mini pound cake and a banana. We couldn't have asked for more. The hotel is within walking distance to all the restaurants, shops and the beach. We would definitely recommend Carmel Bay View in to other travelers.
Loved the room and the balcony. Staff was friendly. We visited at Christmas time and the whole town was beautiful. The our room had a full kitchen and fireplace complete with furnished logs. Large bathroom. Located within walking distance of Carmel's main shopping and eating areas. We never used our car. We walked everywhere. Also walking distance from the beach but uphill back to the hotel.
It was a clean, new and super cozy little Hotel. The room was clean and had everything that was needed. Breakfast was okay but Carmel has a bunch of cute places to get a proper one, especially for those who are vegan. The location was close to the city center and just a 15min walk away from the beach. I would always come back!
Extremely comfortable bed, best dreaming I’ve had in a while. Peaceful secluded location away from traffic and city noise, and just 10-15 mins away from Carmel and Monterey Bay. Very pet friendly, loved seeing all the dogs with neighboring cottages. My cottage had a nice fenced patio which is perfect for pets.
Large rooms, modern aesthetic and looked new-ish.
Location was good, just off the highway and about 5 mins from Carmel-by-the-Sea
Right next to a gas station and shopping center which was convenient. Overall, great for a short stay esp if you find the Carmel hotel rooms too tiny/in need of updation.
The location is splendid - right at the start of the main street in Carmel. It is a 15 min walk to the beach, going through wonderful cafes, shops, and galleries on the way. There are also weekly events, such as a free wine tasting we happened to arrive just in time for.
Having stayed in chain hotels prior to our stay at Carmel Country Inn we were met with a warm welcome, tea and cookies. A fire in our spacious room and a fantastic breakfast. We throughly enjoyed our stay in beautiful Carmel and at Carmel Country Inn.
The Hotel was great. It has the perfect location, near all stores, restaurants, and near the beach as well. The services were great and all the people that attend us were so warm and gentle that made us feel like home. Thank you!!!
The hotel was really well positioned for exploring Carmel and having the car park and free nearby roadside parking was an added bonus. Across our 3 day stay we always got a space. The bedroom was really spacious.
Great location next to the Carmel River with a walking path near it. It’s a large property with a number of stand alone cottages available. The inn is very dog friendly!
The location was the best. We could easily walk everywhere from the hotel. Parking was easy.
The hotel included parking.
