At first I was dismayed by the gas station in front, but just close your eyes! The property is lovely, with nicely decorated rooms, very comfortable beds, nice linens for bed and bath. Staff very helpful and friendly. Nice outdoor lounge area with a fire pit. It backs up to the Barnyard shopping center, so you can easily walk to... More

My husband and I stayed here for one night during our Pacific Coast Highway tour. When driving up we were a bit hesitant because the outside building looks like a motel and is a bit removed from the downtown and right near the highway. However, once we pulled in to the property it became clear that everything was very well... More

I was expecting something a little more luxurious for the price. We were given a handicapped room though we didn't have disabilities or request such and the shower was adapted for a wheelchair: a bench and hand held spray. No HBO or premium television channels. Adjacent to small shops and restaurant and a larger shopping mall accross the street. Several... More

This is one of those classic hotels where you pull up and think "how quaint - an old style motel" just off Highway 1. How wrong you would be! The interior has been lovingly renovated, and now provides a really nice, vibrant and exceptionally clean space. Our room was of a really good size, and although it looked over the... More

As many have done before us we thought we were booking the Mission Ranch. This inn turned out to be a better place for us to stay. It is a lovely old properly that is maintained very well. The breakfasts were fantastic. We ate dinner at Mission Ranch and had a nice visit there but we were glad we stayed... More

One of the most comfortable beds I have slept in, followed by a really varied choice for breakfast. Hotel had a band on when we stayed and there are shops and other restaurants within 200 yards. Do not let... More

The staff here were lovely and really helpful, we were on our honeymoon and received a free upgrade to a room with a balcony which we loved! It had lovely views of the mountains. The pool and hot tub were lovely and we had a nice time sat out in the sun. We went for dinner at the Rio Grill... More

We stayed three nights in a corner suite with our two dogs. This was our first stay in a suite although we had stayed there several times previously. It was perfect for us and having the extra space and frig and microwave was great. The staff is excellent and housekeeping keeps the rooms immaculate. The location is perfect and a... More

We stayed in the Carmel Mission Inn for two nights. We had a great time: nice and spacious rooms, delicious breakfast, and helpful staff. Front desk staff recommended trips in the area and gave us hints to avoid "tourist traps". We would definitely come back.
