Cypress Inn is in a perfect location and is a lovely, small inn that is more than dog friendly. You can bring your dogs of apparently any size which brings a special warmth to the environment. The public rooms are well maintained, the continental breakfast plentiful (but basic) and the inn has the nicest staff. The bar in the hotel... More

We have stayed at the Cypress Inn four times over the years, most recently last week for four nights. and there's a lot to be pleased with... The breakfast buffet is really superb, the staff we have come into contact with (especially at breakfast) could not have been more accomodating, the housekeeping staff keeps everything fresh and well-stocked, and with...

I didn't realize how many people with animals would be staying here. I'm a huge dog person, so I loved it! The breakfast is nice, eggs, potatoes, pastries, fresh juice. On Saturday night they had live piano music in the living room area. The staff was very friendly. Location was perfect, easy walking to everything. I would have rated it... More

We stayed here for a weekend to celebrate a birthday. Having been before, we had expectations and were not disappointed. The rooms are a bit dated but the hotel was built in the 1920's. Romans were well appointed and the beds were great. Our room had a fireplace which was nice for cool evenings. Thursday through Sundsy there is live... More

Cypress Inn is a lovely centrally located in the heart of Carmel by the Sea...We were just disappointed that we could not get a ground floor room unless we had a 3 night min. Our dog is old and blind, so has to be carried, so had to take the 2nd floor room for 2 nights. Staff is very nice... More

The desk clerks, the wait staff, the maids, even the maintenance guy -- everyone at this hotel is efficient, friendly and helpful. We are in our 60's and emerged from great sadness to find each other. We wanted to marry by the sea. I think the whole staff knew our situation and all were just incredible. In fact, one waitress...

My friend and I were driving the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway from San Francisco to Los Angeles and stopped in to stay at the lovely Cypress Inn after realizing that we had WAY underestimated how long a journey it would be to our next stop of Santa Barbara via the scenic route. Carmel is a wonderful place full of shops,... More

My husband and I stayed here on a whim and it was a great find even though we were on the first floor next to a lot of guest traffic. This was lessened by a set of double doors that separated the guest rooms area from the lobby. Our room was small, but well appointed and the bathroom was quite... More

When my husband & I are in Carmel, we always have a drink in Terry's Lounge, the bar in the Cypress Inn. Dogs are welcome & there are dogs EVERYWHERE! It's like the bar scene from Star Wars, so fun & entertaining. Mary, who has worked there for a long time, is sweet, efficient & a wonderful asset. Come early,... More
