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.JenniferUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

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!!AAnonymousUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

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.MariettaUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Carmel is the jewel in the PCH crown.
Carmel is the jewel in the PCH crown. A beautiful spot with its own personality. The cutest shops, amazing food and outstanding beaches. Super close to Big Sur and also the 17 Mile Drive - make sure you visit Peeble Beach Golf Club!

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 daysAAnonymous - 10Scored 10
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.Inna GlazmanUnited States of America

- From $276.63 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 1,202 reviewsWe had an ocean view king room with fireplace - the view was spectacular and the best part of the room! The hotel is a refurbished older property. The updated rooms are nice and comfortable but nothing special. The bathroom was small but functional. The location is great and walkable to downtown Carmel restaurants and the beach. Be aware that the hotel is up a hill if you are in an ocean view room and may be a difficult walk for people with mobility issues and you will need to drive. The staff is great, very friendly and accommodating.NNAZMINUnited States of America
- From $177 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 429 reviewsCarmel Oaks Inn is a very quiet, clean, comfortable hotel. Rooms have everything you need. It is very close to all shopping boutiques end great restaurants. Our room had a balcony with a table and two chairs. When you walk up the stairs to get to the second floor, there is a cozy terrace with tables and chairs where you can sit and enjoy glass of wine or a cup of coffee. Beds are very comfortable. Breakfast is delivered to your door at no extra cost! Staff is very welcoming. It was a very pleasure stay.
InnaUnited States of America - From $750.15 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 243 reviewsHotel Playa Carmel is quintessential California quaint. As we stroll through the town and down to the beach it was obvious there was nowhere else we want to stay in Carmel. The staff was excellent always happy and ready to assist. From beautiful breakfast buffets, coffee/tea service early each am (for east coasters!) to excellent cappuccinos upon request-All included in the hotel cost. Although everything in town is walkable the hotel offers a shuttle service at night for when you want to dress up/drink.JohnUnited States of America
- From $240.98 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 983 reviewsIt was very close to town and we really enjoyed that it was an indepentently owned hotel. The room was spacious and there was a little cute courtyard with a table (it seemed it was primarily for use for the rooms directly off the courtyard, but we sat there anyway!). The fireplace warmed the place right up. It also made a big difference traveling as a family to have 1.5 bathrooms in our room. The hotel itself is a great value for the Carmel area. We would stay there again.LysaUnited States of America
