Seems at least once a year I stay at a hotel that has both good and bad reviews on this site and I ignore the bad ones and regret it. This year it's the Hofsa House. We stayed in a second floor room, which was dumpy and plain, but, worst of all, we could hear EVERYTHING from upstairs, including every... more

My husband and I had such a wonderful time staying here! The view was refreshing, the room was clean and comfy, and the location was perfect for evening walks through Carmel's quaint streets and shops. Am not sure what the other reviewer expected for breakfast, but we simply loved the fresh pastries and fruit. The ladies at the counter (both... more

If you want to "Go back to the future" stay at this hotel. The TV must be 50 years old! more

great room size - but looking dated and fitments very home made - pool too cold to swim in - breakfast a long walk and miserly. more

Our family of 4 enjoyed our overnight stay at the Hofsas. the staff was friendly and very nice. The family suite was spacious and fairly quiet. Trying to negotiate the maze of stairs, walkways, etc. was amusing & we eventually got the hang of it. The beds were comfortable, fireplace was a nice touch, bathrooms were clean, etc. The towels... more

I called Hofsas House directly for an 84th birthday celebration. 4 adults, and one dog. I was explicit that we did not want any stairs due to two elderly mature travelers with bad knees. When I learned that they did not have elevators, I was told they had a cottage. We were assured the cottage had access that did not... more

Anyone who's been to Carmel knows it's a resort-like village for higher-end vacationeers. The Hofsas House Hotel proves that there are still establishments willing to cater to this clientele (not downgrade their service) at a reasonable price - so their money can be spent on the lavish dinners, Coach Bags, and Pebble Beach Golfing. First and foremost, the staff at... more

This is a great place to stay in Carmel. I have stayed at Hofsa's house several times over the last few years, and really like it. The location can't be beat: Hofsa's House is about a two-minute walk from Ocean Street, near the shopping and restaurants there, but it is not close enough to get the ambient noise from that... more

I prefer a simple, clean, comfortable hotel to a pretentious "5 star establishment". Hofsas House offered a huge 2 bedroom, 2 bath suite with 1 king + 2 queen beds, at a very reasonable price. Perfect for me, my wife, 2 grown children and our 2 dogs. Some of the other reviewers complained about cleanliness, but our rooms were very... more

We needed a two-bedroom suite with two bathrooms to accommodate my mother and a disabled spouse. Hofsas House provided us with the perfect suite. There was a microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker and sink. The fireplace added charm to the two very large rooms. The bath areas included a dressing area outside of the bathrooms. We enjoyed the quiet in our... more
