The B&B is attractive, has nice rooms, and the help was friendly, however we were shocked to discover a noisy 8 story high condo resort with hundreds of units right across the street. People were yelling off their balconies, and traffic in and out of the resort was constant. The picture of a quiet Gilbert Inn is decieving and was... more

This is a very lovely B&B located less than a block away from the beach. It was very convenient for walking everywhere in the main town of Seaside. The innkeeper was very friendly and nice even though my husband and I are a young couple. After check-in we didn't really see any other people except for at breakfast, which was... more

This inn is located 1/2 block from the beach and a retreat from the mid June activity of Seaside. Very gracious hostess on site. Clean spacious room with huge bathroom for one person. Lovely breakfast, all home made items, in the bright and airy dining room. First time visitor and would clearly return for another visit before the summer rush.... more

The two of us spent 3 nights at the Gilbert Inn this month for Memorial day weekend. We could not have hoped for a better B&B - in nearly every way, it exceeded our expectations. When we arrived, we completed the paperwork for the room and were shown to our room on the second floor. We had the Turret room,... more

My husband and I stayed in the Matthew room for 3 nights last summer. The location of the Gilbert Inn could not be better being mere steps away from the walk that runs along the ocean in Seaside. The room was immaculate with luxurious amenitites and very friendly service. The breakfasts and afternoon snacks were amazing. My husband particularly enjoyed... more

We stayed at the Gilbert Inn for 5 nights in December and it was an all-round wonderful experience. The decor is tasteful, the room was immaculately clean, the bedding was luxurious, the breakfasts were delicious, the host was gracious and helpful, and the location was central to so many activities. We enjoyed reading in front of the fire in the... more

What an incredible discovery..The Gilbert Inn! I've had the pleasure of enjoying this unique B&B twice and am about to visit again in 2 weeks. So many nice things to mention about the Inn...from the comfortable rooms to the tasty breakfasts served in a solarium style dining room - excellent service too, comfortable and quaint sitting areas on the main... more

Since so many properties in the Seaside area were smaller and not chains I decided to go and see them and decide where to stay. As a woman traveling alone some were not appealing. A local resident suggested that I try this B &B and it was a wonderful experience. I have never stayed in a Bed and Breakfast and... more

I honestly can't think of a better word than "lovely" to describe my visit. The Matthew room with attached full bath was very quiet and comfortable (best sleep ever!), the breakfasts and afternoon snacks were delicious, and I enjoyed meeting the fellow guests from all over in the common areas. The beach and downtown Seaside's charming stores and restaurants are... more
