Stayed here for one night on the way from San Fran to L.A. Fantastic location. Initially booked an inland view room but upgraded to water view ($75) which was well worth it. The windows, while not full length as stated on the web site (They are in balcony rooms), had an awesome view of the water and are literally over... More

This was our 8th year at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and our 8th stay at the Monterey Plaza. I think they've actually improved year over year over year. The location is perfect with great views of Monterey Bay and walking distance to Cannery Row. It's also close enough but far enough from all of the hustle bustle at Pebble... More

This was our first vacation relying on TripAdvisor and it was fantastic. The Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa is rated #1 in the area and it truly was exceptional. We loved every aspect of our stay. While the hotel is rated 4 star, the service was 5 star in every respect. We had an ocean balcony room that was incredible.... More

I stayed here for a one night business trip. It is a beautiful hotel with great lookout views of the bay. It's also in a great location for walking either direction to easily get to the aquarium on cannery row or to the pier toward the town center. The rooms are clean and nice but like all hotels in Monterey... More

I recently stayed at the Monterey Plaza Hotel for a girls weekend away. Not only is the Vista Blue Spa amazing, sitting on the rooftop of the hotel with an excellent view, but the our room had an ocean view, which was breathtaking. The entire staff at the hotel & spa were super friendly, I would recommend this hotel to... More

The Monterey Plaza is a very nice hotel with an excellent location overlooking Monterey Bay. The room are attractive and the staff is very service oriented. My complaints are minor, but irritating. First it took 3 tried before the maintenance staff could find a refrigerator that actually cooled drinks in the mini-bar. Second there were no enveloped or stationary in... More

We went for a spontaneous extended-weekend in Monterey in late January. The weather was sunny, and a little warm, but a great trip. Here's the summary of the hotel experience. The good news: * The location is really, really good. The location is halfway between Cannery Row and the piers, and the bike path is about 20 feet from the... More

We spent two nights here in August and absolutely loved it. The location is fantastic, and the staff was helpful when needed but never in the way. Our room was a nice size and super clean. We had a basic ocean view room on the Bay and slept comfortably with the window open to hear the sounds of the waves.... More
