3-Star Hotels in Monterey County

One of the few hotels in Big Sur that allow you to book a one-night stay on a weekend so this is a huge plus. No reception nor staff on site when you check in - keys are left in a key box outside your assigned room (which you will be informed of a couple days before your arrival). If you need help during your stay, your only option is emailing them. Rooms are dated but clean. No dining options on site so either eat before you arrive, bring supplies, or be prepared to drive ＞20min for the nearest restaurant. Breakfast is left in a cabinet by the parking lot for self help. You get a slice of cake, boiled eggs, fruit and bottled juice. In short, you're paying for location.

The hotel has convenient parking and a great environment. The only downside is that you have to carry your luggage up the stairs yourself. As for housekeeping, they won't clean your room unless you specifically ask them to, and you need to arrange it in advance. The in-room phone doesn't work, so you have to call the front desk on your mobile phone for any services you need.

Good location and friendly staff with warm service. Very impressed on check in by staff Mr Alan. He was courteous and helpful on check in. Took time to explain and highlight the amenities available. The place feels safe and has 2 levels of secure and well lighted parking. Food and grocery are 5mins of driving away . Old Fisherman Whatf is a must to visit for dining and shopping. Neatly themed and decorated side walks. Highly recommended hotel if staying in Montery area

The hotel is beautiful and in a good location. It is close to the beach, Cannery Row, and the aquarium, and can be reached on foot. The hotel has its own parking lot, which costs $19 per day. The free breakfast is quite rich, with fruits such as oranges, bananas, and strawberries. You can also make your own waffles, which is a good experience and tastes good. The room is relatively large, and there is a fireplace that can be lit and is very warm. You need to prepare your own toothpaste, toothbrush, and slippers.

We stayed with our family of 5 (2 adults, 3 children). The room was clean and spacious, and we had a comfortable stay. It is a little far from Fisherman's Wharf and the Aquarium of the Bay in the center of Monterey, about 15 minutes by car.

We stayed one night in this beautiful hotel. The room was very spacious. Actually there is also a little kitchen inside the room. The breakfast variety was enough. There were boiled eggs, waffles, jam. There were lots of parking spaces. The beds are comfortable. Stuff were nice.

Great location. Minimal style but chill. Simple bakery breakfast.

It's a bit pricey, but the location is great. It's only about a 15-minute drive to 17 Mile, Fisherman's Wharf, or Carmel-by-the-Sea. The surrounding environment is simple, just a typical resort town, quiet and comfortable all day long. The front desk staff were very welcoming and quick at check-in. There's a Walmart just around the corner, making shopping very convenient. McDonald's Mexican restaurants and Chinese restaurants are also within a 10-minute drive.

The room is large, the double bed downstairs is concealed, very suitable, and clean. Hotel supplies are also good. recommend! Breakfast is very good for the American bar, and the self-baked waffles taste very good. There is parking.

The room was spotless, as expected from Red Lion. A nice bonus was the complimentary coffee and bread, available for pickup in the lobby from 7 AM. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, with a gas station right next door and a Whole Foods Market directly across the street!
